Messing with the Dark Side
We all like to tell stories about the *spooky* things that happen when people mess around with Ouija boards, hexes and spells.
A friend had wierd banging noises in his house for months and was deeply, deeply worried that it was the result of getting drunk and attempting to summon the devil.*
What's scared the crud out of you after you've played with the dark side?
* it turned out to be a tramp living in his attic (no, really). Also, -5 points for rubbish Star Wars jokes

Finally one I have a story for
I'm sort of a believer, but I require a bit more proof than Derek Acorah in a dusty room shouting at the walls. A Shakespearean college trip led us to Halls Croft Manor in Stratford Upon Avon, a place earlier that year visited by said Mr. Derek Accordian and his Mostly Haunted team (a wooden spoon quite famously threw itself accross the room at him, presumably fed up of his constant bullshitting).
Anyway, we went upstairs into the reportedly "haunted" room. Cue almost all of the girls in the class looking frantically around the room claiming the curtains were moving due to some supernatural force. Oh well, me and one of my mates decided let's just take the pictures and video we were supposed to then find a nice cozy pub to kick back in.
What was sort of spooky though is that the batteries in my digital camera and his video camera - all freshly charged - decided to pack up at precisely the same moment. Seems we were guests to some camera shy spirits. Cue all the girls in the room taking it as a sign that we were obviously intruding and cheesing it out of the manor throwing dozens of old ladies asunder on the stairs on their way down.
And we never did find a decent pub...
