Ghost jailed for haunting house

An Austrian man who came to believe his estate was haunted has found relief after a court jailed the ghost.

Echoing footsteps in hallways and slamming doors late at night had made the owner increasingly jittery.

He called in the police, who captured a 42-year-old Polish woman on video, masquerading as a ghost over a period of weeks, making mysterious noises.

She was jailed for four months. Her husband was employed by the owner, and some unexplained grievance haunted her.

She was convicted on nuisance charges, Austrian television reported.

But it was unclear what had motivated her to begin her campaign of ghostly disquiet at her husband's employer's property.

Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
