This is a really interesting case, apart from the girls being caught trying to intentionally trick the investigators several times, which was documented along with all the crazy things they could not explain. It's too bad they had no one like Derren Brown or James Randi or Penn & Teller around to investigate it. It would have been interesting for someone that specializes in the art of tricking people to have witnessed the events. That's why I am always weary when it comes to poltergeists - magicians fool us all the time into thinking that we see things that we can't understand. You can't bullshit a bullshitter, so I wonder what a professional magician would have found. I'm a huge fan of science, but even a scientist can be fooled by a magic trick, just ask Randi.
It really is too bad though, because we'll never know what really happened, will we? People like me will say it remains unexplained, and many others will say it's proof of the spirit world.
Thanks for the vids Phil.
