Haunts

Ok class, here's an educational lesson for you all.
What are 4 types of haunts? Anyone?
-Residual: memory replaying
-Poltergeist: Typically not self aware but still tries to throw the kitchen pots and pans at you
-Intelligent: a large percent of all hauntings are intelligent they are trying to communicate
-Demonic: Yea no Sam and Dean can get you out of this one, it's the real deal the queen mother of all dirty hauntings.

Why are we telling you this? Easy so you can somewhat figure out what kind of haunting YOU or someone ELSE may have. (Please don't try to scare away demons like you are on Supernatural, you'll just end up getting a bunch of angry gestures)

Here's a story about a residual haunting:
-A mans car broke down on a country road. It started to rain and flood the road. He decided to take shelter in what seemed to be an abandoned house up a hill. He started a small fire in the fire place and was about to doze off when he heard the door knob rattle. He hid in the closet and peeked out of the key hole to find someone dragging a body and throwing it under the floor boards. Obviously the man was scared stiff! He stayed in the closet and waited. A few minutes later the same person came back with what looked like the same body. This happened several times during the night and eventually the man fell asleep in the closet. The next day he woke up and no one was there. He opened the floor boards and under them was one skeleton. There had been a murder in the house years ago and the body was never recovered.
Why was that residual? It was the memory of the body hiding that was playing over and over again.

Poltergeists aren't much different. They are not usually self aware much like the residual hauntings. However, they don't do the same thing over and over again. Now in scary movies these haunts tend to throw knives at people right? Well they DO do that, but not all the time. If you tick one off and you are around cuddly bunnies they'll throw those just as fast as a knife.

Intelligent haunts make up for roughly 90% of all hauntings. These ghosts are self aware. They are stuck here, all for different reasons. These reasons can be anger, sadness, unfinished business, and many others. Some times these ghosts will pick up objects as well, but usually they do not throw them unless they are mad about something. These ghosts can be very territorial. They may be upset if you move into a home that used to be theirs or moved something where they don't like it.
An interesting story to go along with this.
-A psychic went to a home for a complaint about a ghost. The home consisted of a small toddler and his parents. They had been having trouble with toys disappearing, things being moved around, and other non violent but annoying disturbances. When the lady went in she communicated with the spirit and found he had died 75 years previously. "The little boy said his parents went to the market and days went by and they hadn't come back. He eventually started to feel cold and extremely tired and fell asleep. When he woke up there were strangers in his house and he was scared. He wanted his parents, but they weren't there. He has basically slept for 75 years and he felt as if he had only taken a small nap."

Ok now for the big fella, Demonic. If you have one of these in your house, I'm pretty sure your kids won't turn their heads in 360's and vomit all over the place. The tell tale sign of a demonic haunting is usually scratches, cuts, and slashes with no apparent cause. These hauntings can also come with the smell of rotten eggs, bad sewage, frighting dreams and hallucinations, crosses turned upside down, whispers when no one is around, and other things. These hauntings usually look like intelligent or poltergeist hauntings at first. They usually turn violent and sometimes deadly once they realize you know what they are and you try to get rid of them.
