Well, this may not be spectacular, but it still raises my hackles (not a pretty sight, I assure you)

LOL!

When I was about 12, I ended up being friends with the daughter of one of my father's friends. She was about 15 and interested in 'spirits'. So much so that she obtained a Ouija board. (Oooh! There go those chills!) Anyhoo - we got up to no good one night with her and some of her other friends. There were four or five of us all crowded into her room with the board on the bed and us gathered around. The older girls decided they wanted to see if there were any 'spirits' around as some odd things had been happening in the house lately. We did as we were supposed to: everyone with a finger on the 'pointer'. Adrianne started asking "are there any spirits in this house?" Well, the pointer 'moved' to the 'YES', but we were all kind of sceptical. We knew that you could 'move' and 'influence' the pointer and others wouldn't notice it. She asked again "are you a good spirit?" The pointer didn't move. She asked "are you an evil spirit?" - the pointer moved to 'yes'. She asked the final 'question': "if there is really an evil spirit present here, give us a sign."

Promptly - one of the girl's purses levitated up out of the chair across the room, floated out about two feet from the chair and dumped the purse upside down, spilling the contents into the floor.

Needless to say, we immediately put the board away (never to be touched again) and left the room.

In other news, I won't EVEN go into some of the strange behavior two of my cats (they were related) use to exhibit. Their antics made Poltergeist look like a comedy.
