Woman jailed for haunting house
-------------------------------

An Austrian man who came to believe his estate was haunted has found relief
after a court jailed the ghost.

Echoing footsteps in hallways and slamming doors late at night had made the
owner increasingly jittery.

He called in the police, who captured a 42-year-old Polish woman on video,
masquerading as a ghost over a period of weeks, making mysterious noises.

She was jailed for four months. Her husband was employed by the owner, and
some unexplained grievance haunted her.

She was convicted on nuisance charges, Austrian television reported.

But it was unclear what had motivated her to begin her campaign of ghostly
disquiet at her husband's employer's property.

This sounds like something out of an episode of Scooby Doo.
