Are a poltergeist and a joker spirit the same thing?

Question

TR..Thanks for a non biased answer. ..but I don't really believe in leprechauns. However..since you do...I'm open to any paranormal proof you have.

Answer 1

I suppose it depends on what definitions you give these things. The term "poltergeist" is fairly well known and definite, literally "noisy ghost" in German, and is meant to indicate a haunting that produces noises or other physical manifestations. I suppose people might give a bunch of other different names to this supposed type of haunting, and "joker spirit" seems as apt as any. Personally, I prefer the term "leprechaun mischievousness".   :)

Edit: LOL!  Actually, I think leprechauns and ghosts are on equal footing as far as real evidence goes. Take that as you will :)

Answer 2

well yes they are to me.

Answer 3

poltergeist=A mischievous ghost or entity that makes noises and upsets physical belongings.

joker spirit =a spirit who feels the need to cause havoc after death

yes, i believe they are quite similar.

Answer 4

Denie, you don't believe in leprechauns?!

Neither do I.  Although there are plenty of hypotheses proposing explanations of the poltergeist phenomenon, there is exactly the same degree of empirical evidence for leprechauns as there is for poltergeists.
