Oh, sure they are! We've had vampires, robots, fucking genocidal time-ravelling aliens, angels, demons and gods! But, oooh, someone throws a few ghosts in your equation and all of a sudden they can't possibly exist!
Fake science... It's called life, kid. Back in the day, they'd've burned you for turning on a pocket calculator. Hell, I remember back when they used to say 'science' proved people'd die if they went a few miles faster in their cars. Then someone else came along and showed 'em where they were wrong.
Yeah, you go sit there and imagine what can and can't be real. In the meantime, the rest of us'll actually deal with it until your fancy numbers catch up with reality.
