A New Zealand woman has solved the mystery of what gift to get for the person who has everything.
But she’s raised a whole lot of other questions in the process.
Avie Woodbury claimed she was so tired of being haunted that she called in an exorcist to rid her house of two ghosts.
The exorcist trapped the spirits in bottles of holy water – which Ms Woodbury has now put up for sale on internet auction site TradeMe.
‘The holy water dulls the spirits’ energy, sort of puts them to sleep’ she said.
Ms Woodbury added: ‘We have had no activity since they were bottled on July 15th 2009 . So I believe they are in the bottles.’
Bids on TradeMe have already shot as high as NZD$2,000 (£923).
‘I just want to get rid of them as they scare me,’ Ms Woodbury, from Christchurch City in Canterbury, wrote on the site. ‘But someone might like these to play with.’

At the end of a lengthy corridor lies a single white door leading to a room in which many mysteries await. A night behind this closed door might leave uneasy patrons nervous to return.
The White Inn is filled with mystery and many spooky rooms that attract numerous customers, not only for the food, but for the thrills that the Inn might bring. It all began in the early 19th century, when the property on which the Inn stands now fell into the hands of Dr. Squire White.

The first house to be built on the land was in 1868, when White erected a frame house and made it the permanent residence of the White family. Not long after, an unfortunate event devastated the White family when the house caught fire. Devillo White, Dr. White’s son, decided to rebuild a better, more substantial home. In 1868, The Second Empire brick mansion was constructed.
It wasn’t until 1918 that the history of the Inn would begin to develop. Murray Hill Bartley of Westfield purchased the property from the last remaining White family member, Miss Isabelle White. Bartley expanded the house considerably and opened it as a hotel to the public in 1919.

The fear of phop ghosts brought residents of two villages in Kalasin’s Yan Talat district together in a ritual on Wednesday night to exorcise evil spirits from two women and capture 100 phop ghosts in 100 sections of bamboo.
The women, Daeng Somwai, 36, from Ban Kud Or and Kancahan Wangchalee, 31, from Ban Khok Si, displayed symptoms of phop-ghost haunting: trembling bodies, speaking in tongues and suddenly switching from laughing to crying and screaming.
Relatives took them to Wat Donyanang, where the abbot is well known for his exorcisms.
At the temple, surrounded by holy thread, about 300 residents of the two villages attended the ritual.
Earlier, a spirit medium had gone into a trance and declared 100 evil spirits were bent on harming local residents.
They were advised to bring their relatives to join the ritual and remain within the protection of the holy thread.

Whether you are a believer or an atheist, it is a fact that energies —magnetic, thermal, gravitational, solar and other known and unknown energies — exist together. For no reason, children behave abnormally, adults become chaotic and aggressive and women fall sick. The malefic energies in the home and surroundings could have accumulated over a period of time because of improper home care, inappropriate ways of living in the home, absence of a healthy garden and waste objects getting dumped into corners. Often, faulty construction and faulty habitation contribute to the release of these malefic energies.
Malefic Energies
Proximity to cemeteries and graveyards can also see the gathering of malefic energies to your detriment, with people dying for no reason.Habitations near railway lines where deaths take place frequently can also see these malefic energies entering to cause disease and penury. Homes near maternity homes where constant births (and deaths) occur can release energies to the detriment of the habitants. Over a period of time, if there have been deaths taking place, the malefic energies are powerful enough to show in the form of incessant cawing of the crows and eagles hovering over your area. These energies in composite form can cause the home to be haunted, with the residents suddenly hearing whispers or seeing shadows across walls in the absence of any living people.
