Woman calls 999 accusing neighbour of ‘sending a ghost to haunt them’

[Still Waters]

In a weird story out of England, cops were forced to briefly become ghostbusters after they received a call from a woman who accused her neighbor of sending a sinister spirit to her home. The odd incident reportedly occurred around midnight on Friday in the community of Haywards Heath when a resident phoned 999, Britain's equivalent of America's 911, with a rather bizarre complaint. According to Darren Taylor of the Mid-Sussex police, a concerned woman called the emergency number to report that "their neighbor had sent a ghost into their house to haunt them."

Why didn't the Police investigate it properly, by sending a Priest over there with a fly-swatter?

'Unfortunately for the woman who believed that she was the target of a supernatural attack, it seems that there was little that the police could do about it. Instead, they simply provided "some reassuring words," presumably suggesting that her home was not infested by a sinister spirit, and offered some "words of advice" when it comes to what necessitates an emergency call to the police.' 

What kind of message is that sending to people who send ghosts to other peoples houses?

I had a neighbor in an apartment that used to accuse me of capturing spiders and slipping them under a door. That is until we both happened to be outside when a spider crawled on me and i screamed in panic. She learned i suffer from crippling arachnaphobia. I am still working on trying to get over this fear. Snakes, rats, bats, mice and bugs i have no problem with.

Hahaha!

Didn't Michael Keaton's character do that in the film "Pacific Heights"?
