Back when I was around 17 I remember being in this situation. I had a not very close friend (I don’t remember his name) who claimed to have been in a cave where he encountered a malign ghost or demon. I was uncomfortable explaining that while I though his claim to almost certainly be false, I wasn’t going to go and check in any event, as whether the claim was true or false the best thing to do would be not to go to the cave and check.
