A poltergeist is a type of paranormal phenomenon often associated with disruptive physical activity, such as objects moving, strange noises, and disturbances in the environment. Unlike traditional ghosts, which are typically seen as the spirits of the deceased, poltergeists are believed to be manifestations of psychic energy, often linked to emotionally charged individuals, particularly adolescents. The term "poltergeist" comes from the German words "poltern," meaning to make noise, and "geist," meaning spirit. These disturbances can range from harmless pranks to more aggressive behaviors, creating a sense of unease for those affected.
