There are spirits and ghosts but they do not generally cause problems and lead their own lives, unless there are unsettled scores to settle or we keep troubling them.
But in most cases our mind creates the ghosts and devils due to imagination and fear. The powers of the mind cannot be imagined. It can even bring back the dead persons to life 😆

What definition of supernatural is being used here:

- Phenomenons that are not part of our natural world, and hence inherently outside the field of science or academic research.

- Phenomenons that currently lack an objective, scientific explanation.

If it is the latter, then yes, I do believe in a lot of these phenomenons, but I don't necessarily view them as supernatural or paranormal - I believe there is a solid basis to everything that happens in the world we inhabit, an objective principle that governs it. We may not know about its mechanism right away, but that's no reason to view them as being phenomenons that can never be explained through logical, rational and academic means.

However, at the same time, our perception is (currently) limited to our five senses and the limitation of knowledge - many things regarded as impossible in the past have now come to become true. I am a skeptic, but I am open to the possibility of things that are not currently supported by any scientific research - ghosts, spirits, extraterrestrial life, etc - but even if they are proven to exist, there must be some objective principles that make their existence possible, and not because they are magical and can't be explained in rational terms.
