Small Town Folk (2007)
IMDB rating: 3.90
Plot: There is a place… a place called Grockleton, wherein, high on a hill-top stands the lonely Beesley’s Manor, governed by the villainous ‘Landlord’ and his lowly male counterparts (Pooch, Pike and the diesel-swilling Dobbin). Always on the look-out for new female company to help carry on the Beesley name, the Landlord keeps a watchful eye over Grockleton and anyone who dares to enter his land. When three improbable heroes stumble unsuspectingly into the Beesley’s realm they are cruelly snared into a menacing hunt and an unstoppable frenzy of heart racing mayhem! Will the Landlord triumph and collect his ‘trophies’ (and maybe even a future bride?), or can the unlikely trio be victorious against him in his own game?…

Why is it that ghost sightings never seem to be reported by highly educated people in urban areas?
You never see a physics professor from Berkeley or a successful lawyer from Manhattan on TV telling people about seeing a ghost. It always seems to be common folk living in the sticks. Why is that? Do small towns in Indiana and Alabama have more ghosts than NYC?
OR less educated people tend to believe in such things . . .
It’s funny how "logic" is being used to defend the supernatural.
listen to yourself…
you just insulted me… really
and anyway…
back to your question
what if they have seen something
but they don’t say it because people will think their mad
i don’t tell anyone anything because of that
that doesn’t mean the havent seen anything
they just don’t want to say

I think it might just be that the richer or more successful people wouldn’t say anything because they don’t want to lose their jobs. Think about it. If you’re a lawyer in Manhattan with tons of clients, would you want them to find out you think you saw a ghost? NO! of course not! You would lose those clients. Same thing for professors at big colleges. They may see them, just not say anything about it.
As for the comment about us guys in Indiana, I’d think that the bigger cities would have more ghosts. I figure: big cities= more violent crimes= more dead people= more ghosts.

Educated people usually try to find a logical, scientific reason in what they see. It’s most likely that those from small towns are more prone to hear stories and legends about ghosts and the like that they think what they see is paranormal in a way.
There could also be the fact that cities are more concerned with things like business, fashion and sports rather than ghost stories.

Because ghosts are mean bullies and they like to pick on those poor stupid people out in the middle of nowhere!
Just kidding. It’s because you can only see ghosts if you already believe in them, and usually only in an appropriate setting, like a decrepit old house out in the middle of nowhere.

my aunt and uncle are highly educated they both went to good colleges, have intellectual jobs, werent raised on superstitions, and live near NYC, their defiantly not from the sticks, and they both firmly believe in ghosts, they didnt when they were young, but after moving in their house, they are sure they are real.the live in a very large, old house and when they first moved in they had my other aunt and uncle and their then 3 year old son come visit. he slept in one bedroom and they slept in the one next to it. in the middle of the night they heard their son giggling and went to tell him to go to sleep and when my uncle went into the room, my cousin was sitting on the end of the bed laughing his head of, when he asked him what was so funny, he said "daddy the man the the tall hat is telling me funny stories." they told my aunt and uncle and they thought it was just an imaginary friend, until they found a old picture album in the attic and found out the original owner of the 200 year old house always wore a top hat and loved children. thats just one of dozens of weird things that have happened in that house, including paintings with glowing red eyes, piano playing itself, people waking up with bitemarks, chairs moving by themselves, they are now firm believers
