The impact brain chemistry has on all sorts of things is very poorly understood.
There's this device called a "God Helmet" which purports to induce religious experiences on demand through electromagnetic stimulation.

There are other experiments with infrasound which appear to induce ghost like hallucinations:

Could all the sensations of "a presence" or ghosts or spirits just be by-products of electromagnetic or auditory pollution? Possibly. Nobody wants to look into it because "well, clearly, spirits and such aren't real!"
It's a decided lack of curiosity. :(
It's not just an impact. Everything we are IS brain chemistry. Emotions, thoughts, wants, desires, likes, dislikes, skills, talents... they're all just a combination of chemicals and firing synapses in the brain. We are biological meat bags. There's no such thing as a soul.
