All witches and wizards believe in the existence of ghosts and, to take that further, 'peaceful' ghosts. You'll have seen them floating around Hogwarts, for one."
"If you ask muggles, though, the answers are going to be far more varied. Kyle just mentioned that, being raised by a muggle father, she was told ghosts don't exist. That's one example of how the average muggle's knowledge and views about ghosts differ from ours. Muggles incorporate the 'thought' of ghosts into their lives quite differently. So what are some ways the muggle view of ghosts differ from ours?"
Back to muggles. But at least he had done the little he could to make sure all the muggle-centered lessons didn't have to be that repetitive. He removed the marshmallow from the fire, as the sky darkened and night fell.
Luin thought on the topic for a bit, finishing off a s'more she had just made. She licked the chocolate and marshmallow off of her fingers then raised her hand, "I've heard that Muggles portray ghosts to be something to be afraid of. Like they are out to get everyone else who is alive. They also have their superstitions that ghosts always represent something bad." she wasn't sure how he meant the question to be answered but gave her best guess.
