No.

The universe has a specific way that it works and nothing can defy that. No, humans don't have it fully figured out yet, but there's still specifics about how it works regardless of our understanding of it. Paranormal stuff seems to contradict how the universe works; not contradicting our knowledge of it but however it works regardless of our knowledge. Further, the paranormal tends to defy basic common sense or rational thought.

Ghosts, for example, make no sense. There's no consistency with them, and excuses for how they work apply to specific scenarios but not to others. Explanation for how they work is basically whatever is convenient at the time.

Why do only humans have ghosts? If you believe ghosts are souls, they're now based on religious notions, but if they're souls then why do they defy God's authority? According to Christianity, my soul goes to heaven or hell. If you believe in ghosts, there's a third option. I can ignore God and just hang out here on Earth.

if ghosts aren't souls but have a scientific background, why are humans the only animals that have them? On very rare occasion there's sightings of animal ghosts, but if animals can be ghosts then why don't 99.999999999% of them become ghosts? Animals grossly outnumber humans but ghosts are virtually exclusively human. Where's the dinosaur ghosts?

Earth rotates at over a thousand miles per hour. It revolves around the sun at 67,000 MPH. We rotate around the galactic center at 448,000 MPH. What are ghosts made of such that they're gravitationally bound to Earth but otherwise ignore all laws of physics? If they can pass through walls or closed doors, why don't they fall through the floor or ground?

Do my clothes die and become ghosts? Ghosts have ghost clothing, so do my pants die with me or is there an afterlife clothing store?

Why are some ghosts how they appeared at the end of life but others appear as when younger? Will my ghost be an old man ghost or will my ghost look like when I was younger? Both are evidently optional.
