I have had some strange things going on in my house for the past week and I talked to someone, who said that I might have a poltergeist in my house. What I'm wondering is, since I'm getting so many conflicting opinions on line how often does a poltergeist turn violent? If so, what can you do about it? I've heard things like, ignore it, pour salt around the rooms that are active in poltergeist activity, burn sage, consult a priest(I don't really think a priest can do anything), and other experts. Right now I'm trying to interact with it and if it turns violent, again what do I do?
