A haunted house is defined as a house that is believed
to be a center for supernatural occurrences or
paranormal phenomena. A haunted house may allegedly
contain ghosts, poltergeists, or even malevolent
entities such as demons.

Haunted houses are often regarded as being inhabited
by spirits of deceased who may have been former
residents or were familiar with the property.
Supernatural activity inside homes is said to be mainly
associated with violent or tragic events in the
building's past such as murder, accidental death, or
suicide — sometimes in the recent or ancient past.
Amongst many cultures and religions it is believed that
the essence of a being such as the 'soul' continues to
exist. Some philosophical and religious views argue that
the 'spirits' of those who have died have not 'passed
over' and are trapped inside the property where their
memories and energy is strong.
Entities which are said
to 'haunt' homes are often believed to make noises,
appear as apparitions, and shift or launch physical
objects. This is sometimes manifested into 'poltergeist
activity'; poltergeist meaning 'noisy spirit'.
Traditionally an exorcism is the method used to remove
unwelcome spirits from the property.
