Now see, what are you going to do when your stuff starts levitating? Imagine you are watching your favorite show and reach for the beer, and it's floating three feet from where you left it.
But, do ghosts like beer?
Dedicated scientists seeking to reveal the secrets of the paranormal? Or hacks trying to make a buck on supernatural fears?
So where the hell does the ghost come from?
Abandoned for years for unknown reasons......
Hair stand on end = bad hair day?
A haunted horse?
One can imagine the priest dispensing the holy water like ointment for a rash. "Sprinkle this on and it should make phatamagorical specters disappear. Repeat every four hours. If specters don't leave, call Pope."
Well dear, I guess it's a poltergeist!
Yep, those white candles should do the trick. Salt and garlic might work, but if not, you could use both to season your steak for a mid-day BBQ.
Ok, fess up. Know any good haunted houses or have any good haunted house stories?

Ghost hunters investigate Kingston home
KINGSTON - Ever since the Kuzarian family purchased a Depot Road home in 1986, Yvette said strange things have been happening.
Fly nests covered the house windows, she said. Random objects started to levitate, she said. She said they heard voices and saw people in their 30-year-old house and yard.

Kuzarian shared her story with Raymond residents Kathleen Chamberlain and Barbara Edgar, who are filming a documentary on haunted places in the Raymond area for cable access Channel 22. The ghost-hunter team talked with Kuzarian at her haunted home on Monday.

More than 200 years ago the property was a cow pasture where Kingston farmers brought their cattle to graze. Kuzarian says smack-dab in the middle of the pasture is New England’s oldest apple tree, which she believes was a meeting place for townspeople. Kuzarian had the tree classified by University of New Hampshire agriculturists. She was also told an old stagecoach road lined the stone wall at the rear of her property.
So where the hell does the ghost come from?
When the Kuzarians bought the Depot Road house in 1986, it had been abandoned for years for unknown reasons. When family members started work on the horse arena, they said they started to sense the presence of ghosts.
Abandoned for years for unknown reasons......
"My hair would stand straight up on end," she said. "When I went up into the loft I felt threatened. My students would hear people talking and no one would be there."

She said she was starting to lose business. Some of Kuzarian’s students stopped taking classes because they were scared of the strange happenings, she said. Students would see a horse in the stall but then turn back a second time to find nothing there. Her 16 horses also started to act up. She even had a therapist and reiki specialist come and perform acupuncture and other treatments on the horses. Not long after the arena was built, it collapsed for unknown reasons.
A haunted horse?
"Reiki specialists said I have a lot of spirits here on the property. I thought I was going insane," she said.
Other times while in the barn out back, where Kuzarian used to have an antique shop and horse stalls, she said she’d sometimes feel someone hugging her.
Kuzarian had an outdoor riding ring in the back of her house. The lights around the ring would go on and off at random times, she said.
By 1989 she was so frustrated by all the strange events, a friend referred her to Wiccans, a neo-pagan religious group with beliefs in magic and witchcraft.
"I was at a point where I couldn’t do this anymore. We are Catholic and our priest gave us holy water to spread around the house. That worked for a short time but the noises came back," she said.
One can imagine the priest dispensing the holy water like ointment for a rash. "Sprinkle this on and it should make phatamagorical specters disappear. Repeat every four hours. If specters don't leave, call Pope."
When Wiccans came to "cleanse" her home, they and some of her riding students were standing in the kitchen when a battery pack that was sitting on the counter began to hover in midair, she said. The battery pack then flew through the air and hit the family dog on the head. They all ran out of the house screaming.
"It seemed like a poltergeist," Kuzarian said.
Well dear, I guess it's a poltergeist!
The Wiccans walked around the house with lighted white candles looking for negative spirits. When the smoke from the candle became black, the Wiccans spread sage along the corners of the rooms. They also used sea salts and garlic. After that, a lot of frightening events stopped happening, she said.
Yep, those white candles should do the trick. Salt and garlic might work, but if not, you could use both to season your steak for a mid-day BBQ.
"Every once in a while I see someone standing at the door but nothing is there. It didn’t stop the activity, (but) it got rid of the bad stuff," she said.
