This is going to sound fake but I promise, this is happening right now in Minnesota.  Ghosts have shown up on my phone and based on the number of messages people are sending me, I am not the only one seeing paranormal activity on my cell phone.

BEWARE: You might see Ghosts While Texting On Your Cell Phone

When I started seeing ghosts on my cell phone, I didn't say a word because honestly, who is going to believe me when I say, "A ghost just flew across my screen!". 👻  But then it happened to my daughter.

I will never forget this experience. 

A few years ago, I was sitting on the couch next to my daughter and we were texting photos back and forth to one another and funny meme's...because that is what we do in America.  I never told anyone that I saw a ghost before on my cell phone, so this wasn't prompted at all.  But as she was getting ready to type a message to me in the text box, she shouted, "I just saw a ghost on my screen!". 

Thanks to those words, I immediately knew I wasn't losing my mind.

Does A Ghost On Your Phone Mean That There Are Ghost Apps Being Used?

No.  This has nothing to do with Ghost Apps.  However, if you are a parent, I highly recommend taking a moment to read up on ghost apps because these could be on your kids' phones.  If so, it is probably time to have a little chat with them because they are most likely trying to hide something from you.

If you'd like to try to make a ghost happen on your phone, here's how to do it:

  • Go to your "Messages" and start typing a message to someone.
  • Next, go to the emoji icon to add a fun emoji to your text.

You can see from the photo below where the ghost showed up for me on my Pixel 3a phone.  Let me know if you find one by sending me a note on my Facebook page - Jessica On The Radio.

Ghosts are showing up on Cell Phones

If you see a ghost flying across the phone on your screen, I know, you may be wondering if you actually saw what just showed up and then disappeared. I am hear to let you know that you weren't dreaming it. The ghost is real on Google phones and I actually caught it!

I did reach out to Google to try and figure out the "why" but...they are ghosting me. 👻
