Hey all.

Okay, so I have a little bit of a problem with the house my flatmate and I are renting. About a month ago we moved into an old farm house that's been moved into the suburbs. It's quite small, and the rent's pretty cheap, and we were quite desperate for a place at the time, but I kinda regret it now.

For the first few nights we would hear someone walking around as well as a very strong, malevolent presence. It progressed to cupboard doors opening and slamming, doors opening, even glasses being slid across the bench and shattering on the floor. The shower would turn on and off by itself, and one time when I was cleaning the jug suddenly flicked on.

Up until a few weeks ago, we had a kitten that we would come home to find cowering (and shaking) at the back of her cat-carrier whenever we went out. One night we came home from the movies we couldn't find her anywhere, but the house was filled with this HORRIBLE smell. We don't have any cat doors, all the doors were locked and the windows were all locked, so that made the stench even worse.

I looked in the cat-carrier, expecting her to be hiding at the back there, but I saw nothing. Then I heard my flatmate scream. The cat was lying on the bathroom floor, murdered. She had teeth marks in her sides and there was blood all over the walls (evidently she'd been shaken). We suspected a dog must have gotten in, killed the cat, by unknown means and without leaving a trace. After that we started seeing him. We call him "Mr. Smiley" as he always has this horrific grin on his face. We've even had people who don't know the house is weird come and stay with us, and they've seen him standing out in the garden or even woken up to his face right up in their grill!

So yeah. Any ideas on how to get rid of this guy?
