We had another old house in Denmark, which people said was haunted by the man, who used to live there... Apparently he committed suicide.
The only thing that house was haunted by was mice - dead mice, of course
There was a lot of poison on the loft to kill the mice, and when they started to feel ill, they'd go between the ceiling and the floorboards upstairs next to the chimney and die... The smell was unbelievable, and the only way we could find the buggers, was to rip up the floorboards... Yuk...
Give me a nice ghost any day!
