Ghosts can certainly be a nuisance but I don't know why people get so upset about them or consider them to be a "torment." Generally if they're too big a problem you can get rid of them. I find that wearing a cross or invoking the Name of Jesus makes them stop bugging you.

Well, they can be a nuisance. Take the instance of carkeys. They are there; then not; there then not. For example. Then there are the nuisances which bother and torment the sound and restful sleep or daily actions of a person. Then there are gross, disgusting ones; sounds and smells and threatening, menacing presences.

Oh my word.. I've just described the behaviors if not modus of liberal protestors at the GOP convention...

I wish that worked for getting rid of RATs as well...

Absolutely. My brother lived in a house where all kinds of weird things happened - fog in the living room, apparitions of a man and a little girl. Things flying off shelves. Battery operated toys simultaneously going off in the middle of the night (just to name a few). He kept a supply of holy water and regularly went around dousing the house with it. He would invoke the name of Jesus too. It kept things under control.
