Pastor called in to expel Swedish ghost

TROMSO, Sweden, March 17 (UPI) -- The head of a day-care center in the
Swedish city of Tromso has responded to reports of a meddlesome ghost by
calling in a local pastor.

With staff at the Bymyra day-care center reporting incidents of a
ghostly presence stalking them in the halls or touching them, Anne Britt
Johansdatter scheduled the pastor's upcoming visit to calm her
employees, Aftenposten said.


"We're working on it," she said. "We've contacted a pastor. They have
their own liturgy for such things."


While the pastor is set to visit the center next week and future plans
are in place to relocate the facility, employees are still terrified at
the prospect of being alone with the ghost.


"I don't dare stay in the day-care center alone in the evening," one
employee said, Aftenpposten reported. "Several of us have been chased up
and down the hall. It's as if someone is following us."


Aftenposten said other employees maintain they have had their hair and
hands touched by the ghost in the former nursing home.
