I AM A GHOSTBUSTER

I dont take any props with me when I work as a ghostbuster. Most

people who contact me for help quite frequently assume that I will
turn up with a busload of ghostbusting equipment. They think I will
be dressed in combat gear, carrying a high-powered wonder gun that
sucks up unwanted ghosts and spirits, and that I will have electronic
boxes and funny gizmos securely strapped to my back to seek out
and combat ghosts.
Dont you believe it! That is just stuff you see in the movies. The
only thing I use and ever will use, is my sixth sense. Not everything I
investigate turns out to belong to the world of the supernatural. A lot
of noises, dark shadows and smells can be explained quite easily.
I have been called into places where I discovered that footsteps
were caused by waterpipes and age-old floorboards which creaked
as they were slowly expanding and contracting.
Mysterious and interesting voices turned out to be neighbours
talking in the corridor.
Funny noises in the loft were birds busily nesting in the rafters,
and, most commonly of all, ghosts were the lively products of
overactive imaginations.
