Not BOO. More like boo hiss.

In my previous apartment there was a week where I was wondering if Casper was messing with me. Pictures in different rooms just started dropping off the walls, not all at once, but always when I was there alone. Then the glass globe over the ceiling light fixture detached and literally floated to the floor in a graceful arc. That was the end of it, although a couple friends offered to provide an exorcism.

I've been in this newer place for three years. Two days ago, while I was doing some bookkeeping, there was a loud popping noise as a large decorative wicker tray dropped off the wall. Ten minutes ago there was a loud bang as a wooden fish-shapped serving tray flew three feet straight out from the wall before dropping to the floor. The nails that held it to the wall are still there, and the piece is still intact.

Given the heavy rightwing presence in this community, I'm thinking I've managed to piss off some republican ghosties. Spooky, but kinda satisfyingly cool. Heh.

4. Strange stuff in Utah for me
Then when my old TV screen magnetized, I realized I was dealing with advanced technology, not that I ever believed it was supernatural.

5. Forgot to mention --
About a week ago I got home from a meeting and there was a photograph of some children displayed on the television screen. No text, just the photo. I thought I'd forgotten to turn the TV off, but when I clicked the remote the thing turned on and the photo went away. Beats me.

10. Find a Native American medicine man or woman and get them to smudge the place
with sage. If it's Caspar, most likely he'll be gone. If it continues then more earthly problems are in play. You may need to test the ground underneath you for the possibility of sink holes developing.

19. Hmmmmmm...

One of my family members would suggest you unknowingly "picked up" a spirit, and it's sticking with you, even when you move. It might be best to ignore it.

But I like the sage-smudging idea too, as well as a blessing in the place. Then wait and see if it gets better or worse.

You should light some candles and smudge your house with sage. :whatever:

I'm sure that all the electronics in a TV could never produce a magnetic field.  :whistling:

I don't know why he doesn't just ask CalP to write a healing poem for his house.

First, I thought it was the Catholics that did exorcisms.  What good could a witch doctor do against a white man's ghost?

Second, forgot about the sinkhole.  Check for radon.  If it tests positive, inhale deeply...a lot!

Third, if it is a sinkhole, move to the basement.  Don't think of it as a mere sinkhole.  Think of it as an interdimensional wormhole, and enjoy the ride.

i'm glad I happened to stop in this morning and see this post.

First off, the fact that you are still able to post proves that you have not pissed off some republican ghost. If you had really pissed off a republican ghost he would have messed you  up so bad that all you could do is cry and drool. If you could even do that.

One thing to keep in mind if you ever do come across a republican ghost: Samuel Colt is dead, but he never retired.

What you are most probably dealing with is a Kisha which is a liberal ghost. I've made that determination based on several factors. I'll go over them for you point by point.

1) Many people consider hanging photos on the wall as work. Like all liberals a Kisha despises work almost as much as it despises normal and decent people. His knocking down of the photos was a demonstration of his hatred of work.

2) The light fixture, a glass globe, could be considered a representation of the earth. The fact that it is a light fixture means that it gets hotter when the lights are on. To a Kisha, who follows the religion of Global Warming like most liberals, the warming light fixture symbolizes Global Warming. His removal of the light fixture was his standard liberal, impotent attempt to fix something.

3) The fact that the light fixture 'literally floated to the floor in a graceful arc' leads me to believe that the Kisha is a homosexual male.

4) The knocking of the serving trays to the floor is once again the Kisha protesting work like a good liberal.

Since you are dealing with a Kisha whatever you do do NOT do any smudging. The Kisha will smell the smoke, think you've got some free weed (or other smoking drug), and invite more Kisha friends to move in. You would soon have a houseful of Kisha.

If you really want the Kisha gone, and I can completely understand why a person wouldn't want a liberal in the house, there are a few things that you can do.

a) Audibly say stuff like "Jesus" or "God bless you" as you walk around the house. Like a lot of liberals any mention of "Jesus" or "God" really terrifies a Kisha.

b) Buy a gun. Even a toy gun. Like most liberals when a Kisha sees a gun he's terrified that the gun will jump up, load itself, and just start shooting itself at random.

c) Set up a liberal dream booth outside on the front lawn. Make up posters that read "The military are baby killers", "The US sucks", "Long live Communism", and (most importantly) "Get free stuff here", and place the posters in open view. The Kisha will see the posters and rush to the booth to offer his support. While the Kisha is busy admiring and agreeing with all of the posters, you take a black, permanent marker and write "Ronald Reagan was great" over the doorway of your residence. The Kisha will never return.

Or, better yet, sprinkle lots of petroleum products around your house, in an effort to get a good 'smudging.' :fuelfire:

Hmmm. If a Native American Medicine Man actually has magical powers...WHY did they lose the West?
If someone claims magic powers, I want a history of success to bolster their claims.

Besides, won't burning sage set off the fire alarm and the sprinkler?

Thank goodness you stopped by, Flippydoo!  That's an excellent point.  Besides, they tried that on American Horror Story part I, and it most decidedly did not work.

I get the feeling that this primitive smudges the internals of his lungs.. frequently.
