Is it ghosts in my house my 2-yr old sees?

I have a question regarding the house we moved into. We have only been here for 2 weeks and I have a 2 year old daughter. About a week ago we were sittin on the bed in my bedroom and i was doing my daughters hair when her line of sight focused on the door to the room and she appeared to be playing 'catch' with an invisible ball and invisible playmate. She would throw 'it' and say 'No, you go get it' and laugh. So I was thinkin maybe an imaginary friend? She seems to be calm and happy so we brushed it off. Then just yesterday we were getting ready and she kept saying 'koko' and pointing to our bedroom door and would refuse to go through it alone. Then my fiancee was in the spare room a few hours later and she looked under her crib and said 'koko' again and my fiancee then put her down on the floor and she screamed and cried like she was sincerely scared of whatever it was under there. I myself have had experiences when I was a child, needless to say im scared of ghosts. Is my house haunted ? Is my daughter seeing real ghosts that are really scaring her? I don't want her to be in this sort of situation. Please help!

Talk to her. Ask her if it is doing something to scare her or if she is just afraid of it. Ask her to tell you ALL about it.
I doubt it is an imaginery friend because they tend to be just what you want in a friend that you don't have.

Most two year olds don't make up the things that your daughter is seeing. If you were sensitive to paranormal phenomena at her age, she is probably just able to pick up on things that most two year olds miss.

Ghosts can be scary. They never hurt you though, right? Your fearful reaction only feeds her fear. Tell her about what you used to see. I used to see ghosts too, among other things. My Grandparents would always change the subject or distract me. If you can validate her feelings, she may not grow to adulthood with the same fears you have.
