I know what you mean! I don't watch paranormal shows, but I do love to read scary stories online from people who wholeheartedly believe they've encountered ghosts, aliens, wendigos, etc. They really freak me out in a delicious way... I am not that superstitious though. When something weird happens, I always assume it's a coincidence or there's a mundane explanation that I haven't figured out yet. But seriously, spooky stuff is so fun. I even encourage superstitious people to tell me about their experience even if I don't believe in what they're saying, because it's still very interesting.

One time I had a coworker who believed in witchcraft and believed that Mercury retrograde (something to do with astrology) was making her cats act crazy. I just played along haha

You get it! I do most of that too!

Sums it up beautifully. I follow the Weekly World News method with people's superstitious stories:

“If someone calls me up and says their toaster is talking to them, I don’t refer them to professional help, I say, ‘Put the toaster on the phone’.”

I have a coworker who thinks his beloved grandma sent him a cat to comfort him the day after she died. He thinks her spirit is in the cat. I love it, though I disagree and he knows that. He always tells me how the cat's doing.
