So if a person believes in ghosts why wouldn't he take the next step and pick out a religious fairy tale to believe in as well?

That is what I thought, but I have come across many atheists that believe in all things supernatural. It is weird, but  it common.

An atheist doesn't always mean the person is a rational skeptic capable of critical thought. Belief in ghosts would be among the least surprising beliefs.
