Anthropologists speculate that this may also stem from early beliefs that ghosts were the person within the person, most noticeable in ancient cultures as a person's breath, which upon exhaling in colder climates appears visibly as a white mist. In the Bible, God is depicted as animating Adam with a breath.

During the first night of installation we had the entire building to ourselves and were working well past midnight. All of a sudden we heard metal clanking and breaking glass, then we saw shadows of two figures in a hallway across from us. We thought the place was being robbed and called the police. The police showed up quickly and did a complete walk-thru, they found broken glass but nothing conclusive.
