Ghost, if you can hear me, write in this journal

The fear of ghosts in many human cultures is based on beliefs that some ghosts may be malevolent towards people and dangerous. It derives from Greek phasmophobia, a type of specific phobia. It is often brought about by experiences in early childhood and causes sufferers to experience panic attacks.
