How long have you been investigating haunted houses?
Mrs. Freeling, the determination as to whether your home is haunted is not very easy. [A heavy teapot slides across the table in front of her] I -- what I meant to say was, it might very well be a poltergeist intrusion instead of a classic haunting.

There's going to be two more in a couple of seconds. They always come in pairs.
Dr. Casey.
There's a difference?
It's electrical. You can smell the charge.
Poltergeist are usually associated with an individual. Hauntings seem to be connected with an area, a house usually.
Poltergeist disturbances are of fairly short duration, perhaps a couple of months. Hauntings can go on for -- years.
Are you telling me that all of this could just suddenly end at any time?
Yes, it could, unless it's a haunting. But hauntings don't usually revolve around living people.
Then we don't have much time, Dr. Lesh, because my daughter is alive somewhere inside this house.
