The concept of wandering spirits seems to be ubiquitous across cultures. While most will say they don't believe in ghosts by the light of day, this stand gets a bit less firm in the middle of the night when strange things happen. Why do we tell ghost stories?

Do we all just like the thrill of a scary story, or are there larger societal reasons that we cling to our ghost stories?
