Most US adults ‘have been visited by dead relative’

And other stories from the stranger side of life

The Pew Research Center found that around half of adults in the US (53%) say that they have been visited by a dead family member in a dream or some other form.

The researchers found that women are more likely than men to say they had at least one of these three experiences in the last year (53% vs 35%), noted The Telegraph.
