I believe that every end is a beginning, so I believe that there is another life. Perhaps something like a new life via reincarnation. Or even something like a new world, like heaven and hell but more complex and you don't die anymore because you're, well, dead.

Nothing. You just die.

Wait... that's not an interesting answer. Can't really think of what to add to it, though. There are times when I sort of want to believe in some sort of reincarnation, but those times pass, and I go back to thinking about nothingness and its inevitability.

Good sir, you just answered it for me.

I would love to think that there is a pearly white heaven where the good souls of this world can go and be peaceful once we have died, relax and take it easy, but it just sounds too good to be true. Don't get me wrong, I am not bashing religion here, I once believed that heaven was a possibility, but I have just thought about it logically and... Then again, how can you truly think logically about 'what happens after dead?'

The idea of death really scares me, and the thought of nothingness terrifies me. I'm doing Biology in school its hard to believe in any kind of soul or spirit because everything is scientifically explained.
But then again, scientists themselves have admitted the brain is one of the most mysterious organs in the body.

That said, I've first handedly experienced some pretty unusual activity which confuses this logical viewpoint a lot for me. My house is pretty old [over 200 years old?] and really strange stuff happens, like things fall off surfaces for no reason, things go missing and appear in some completely random place... of course there are lots of logical explanations for this but I can't help but think "What if...?"

Ugh sorry, but when your dead, your dead.
Don't you think if you could manifest yourself into a spirit afterwards, everyone would?
And the idea that you could contact the living as well, everyone would do it.
Many people in my family have died, I have not seen a single spirit.
However, ghosts, I have thought I have seen, but I cannot reliably say who they was, and even exactly what I was doing when I saw them. So for me the idea of Heaven and Hell is a nice fantasy, but unfortunately I cannot see it being true, however spirits,maybe, but it would have to be under extraordinary circumstances, which is the reason you hear of so many 'scary' ghosts and not any 'friendly' ones. (However Casper is absolutely and completely real, as well as the Pokemon ghosts.)

No clue. My theory is you get reborn...As something. But I mean, no one knows for sure..We can speculate of course, but that doesnt really get us anywhere does it? Thinking about pointless things when instead we could be playing Pokemon! Maybe theres different realms and once we die in one we restart in a new one?:o Thus creating an endless cycle of rotation after rotation, and never remembering our past travels. Who knows? And to be honest, im not too worried, cuz when I die I die, and where I go I go. Whether it be heaven, hell, to the other heaven with my 72 virgins, to the greek underworld to be tortured..Or to the endless void, I go where my soul and heart takes me.

I am Christian so my belief is a modified version of what the bible says.

I believe that when you die, your soul leaves the body and you are allowed to roam the earth and universe as a spirit. Some spirits stick around on earth obviously but others tend to just drift off into space or other places on earth to explore. XD

That status persists until the End of Days. If you were a good person in life, your soul will be sent to heaven during the rapture, just as any live christian would be. If not, you get to stick around and witness the end of days and possibly suffer as the Antichrist continues it's evil and God rains punishment down.

The extremely wicked souls however...I think they probably get sent straight to hell, or get captured and taken by Satan anyway.
