OK, here's a first hand account.

My friend's brother passed away at a young age. (mid 30's.) I moved in with my buddy shortly after his brother had died, and my friend was always a little shaken up. His urn with his ashes was kept in the living room on a side table. A little thing I started; when we were hanging out and drinking, we would always pour a shot for his dead brother and leave it on the urn. When we would cheers each other we would also make sure to cheers his brother. My buddy's wife was convinced that her brother in law's ghost was in the house; and was happy now.

Fast forward a few weeks. I have an issue with Revenue Canada, and I need to find a piece of paper that's packed in one of my many boxes in the basement. I don't have a lot of time; and keep putting off looking for it because I know it will take me hours to go through those boxes.

Then one day I come home from work and see the piece of paper I needed sitting on the kitchen table. At that point I assumed that my buddy's wife went through the boxes (she wasn't working at the time) and I went to go thank her. She sees me and says "oh, I see that you found that form you needed." I figure she is pulling my leg, but when I go downstairs the boxes are all still there; undisturbed. They were the cardboard type of boxes with packing tape; so I would have been able to see if one had been opened.

Throughout the time that I lived there there were a few other things that happened without explaination; and each time it happened we would always thank my buddy's dead brother.
