How would you react if a ghost visited you and told you 3 spirits would visit you tonight?

My first thought was, I would be incredulous, but I decided to play along. What if Christopher Hitchens, all aglow, came down to tell me this?

... Then I imagined what a ghostly Hitchens would say.
"Well," I stammer "I don't see any chains. That's a good sign eh?"
Hitchens chuffs, cupping a lighter and cigarette to his face "I guess chain-smoking counts"
A two hour long conversation lags before he lets drop that three ghosts cliché. "I know, ridiculous isn't it?"

Supposing I was certain it was a ghost and not some prank or scheme I would certainly freak out, scream my lungs out until I have no voice, go pale, crawl on the floor, hit on anyone trying to stop, take my clothes off, roll on the dirt, I would babble and cry and have a convulsion and vomit, I would go sick of my stomach and probably die or be taken to the doctor by my family.

A ghost implies so many things, so many things...

I would be so relieved that the universe is far more interesting than I ever believed it to be.

I'd shit my pants, then go to the doctor. Maybe stab him with a razor, ormurder/ rape if it's a woman. But first, I'd shit my pants.

I would hope that one of them would be my brother. That would be a nice Christmas gift.

I masturbate like 6 times a night so as long as it doesn't cut into that might be ok.

Just read it again today. Pretty sure Dickens made it an allegory for becoming a better person after a drug trip.
