As much as I enjoy reading up on certain topics, watching documentaries, movies, etc. I really think I'd be frightened if I were to see an actual apparition. Maybe I keep myself "closed".
Is it just a large number of those with bipolar that share these experiences, or are there other MI's that seem more intuitive? I am going to google this now.

I am sorry I didn't answer this earlier.
I began reading in my area of 'openness' when I was in my teens. (for me it was psychic, astrology, magic, etc.) I still am not certain we experience delusions (well some are) but I also think we honestly have a part of the unused portion of our brain opened. That exposes us to psychic, paranormal etc. Different for each depending on how the brain works. I feel bad for the poor autistic that have no filter.
In my opinion - to answer your last question - yes I believe a large number of bipolar people (and others diagnosed with other things) area actually experiences glimpses into what the mind has not yet developed.
