Man Sells 'Ghosts In A Bottle'

[conlor]

John Deese said he has ghosts trapped in bottles.

“This was actually the first one that was caught, in Decatur County, Ga., in an old farmhouse,” Desse said, showing off one ghost in a bottle.


While Deese said he contracts with professional ghost catchers around the country and that it’s the ghost catchers who actually stuff the phantasms into a bottle, he wouldn’t elaborate on exactly how the ghosts get into the bottles.


“Well, if you went to KFC, you wouldn't ask for secret recipe,” Deese said. “They’ll go in and catch them from haunted establishments, cars, hotels, maybe even graveyards.”


Whether supernatural or just a spooky novelty, the ghosts in bottles come with a warning -- open at your own risk.


“Some people will open the bottle and say they don’t get results and it’s just a fun conversation piece. Others say, ‘There’s strange things happening in my house.

Where're my car keys? Where's the remote to the TV?” Deese said. “The ghost in the bottle is more toward Casper the Friendly Ghost than the Exorcist. We're kind of in the middle.”

I would never get one of those bottles. I'm too superstitious.

Well, I don't believe in ghosts, and am not particularly superstitious, but I wouldn't want one either. People come up with these things; a hoax? A scam? A "familiar spirit?" If the last one, that's a demon. If you believe in spirits; that's what you could be buying, and it wouldn't be all that smart.

Or smoke held in by a cork...

I believe in ghosts and this is something I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole.

[Snowden]

Well, I don't believe in ghosts -- I just don't know. But I don't believe they are real. I do believe in spirits; and they are more dangerous than ghosts could ever be. Without the faith that sustains us, you and me, Katie; they would be much more powerful than any ghost. More powerful than you or I.

There is only one Spirit Who is not dangerous to us. So no; I wouldn't touch those bottle with a 10-foot pole either.

Ghost and spirit is interchangeable the Holy Spirit used to be called the Holy Ghost, but we've gotten away from that. I believe angels are spirits (ghosts)
