It’s Halloween time, and as we were told, Jeffrey Epstein is now a ghost, meaning anything sexual with this pedo bastard, regardless it’s consensual or not, the act itself is a science known as Spectrophilia.
An Expert Explains “Spectrophilia,” aka Ghost Sex
While ‘Spectrophilia’ is commonly used interchangeably to mean ‘ghost sex’ or ‘sex with ghosts,’ the true definition refers to the attraction between humans and ghosts. To get the low down, we spoke to expert Mike Huberty, who runs a haunted tour company called American Ghost Walks.
What does “spectrophilia” mean?
Spectrophilia has two definitions: One is the attraction between humans and ghosts, and the second is the attraction to objects seen in mirrors, explains Huberty. The two meanings might seem vastly different at first, but considering that the second definition refers to arousal brought on by something that isn’t really there, it makes more sense.
Is spectrophilia real?
Since spectrophilia refers to just the attraction of humans to ghosts, yes. Who are we to deny the existence of a particular sexual attraction?
Actual sex with ghosts is harder to prove, though. Huberty says that he’s interviewed several people who have definitely thought they’ve had sex with a ghost, but pls bear in mind that as the owner of a ghost tour company, that sample pool is likely already pretty self-selecting towards those who believe in the paranormal.
Are there any famous instances of spectrophilia?
While firsthand accounts of sex with ghosts are rare, spectrophilia is alive and well when it comes to movie representation. There’s the film Ghost starring Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze, with Swayze portraying a spectral being. The more recent horror flick It Follows also works around ghost sex. And of course, the kiss between Casper and Christina Ricci in 1995’s Casper is also an example of a PG ghost hookup. Plus, there’s a surprising number of celebs who have spoken about supernatural sexual encounters.
Kesha explained to Ryan Seacrest on air that her 2012 song ‘Supernatural’ was about a sexual encounter with a ghost. And in 1999, Lucy Liu spoke to Us Weekly about taking a nap and winding up climaxing from sex with a ghost.
Then, there’s Amethyst Realm, the British woman who went viral for claiming to have had sex with 20 ghosts and getting engaged to a spirit.
Does ghost sex have anything to do with the dating term ‘ghosting’?
Nope, they’re both totally unrelated! While ghost sex might at least leave you with a chance of feeling satisfied (if those celebrity accounts are anything to believe), “ghosting”βas in being ignored with zero warningβis likely to feel just plain bad. In conclusion, ghost sex = harmless if you’re down, ghosting = rude.
