This device if for people that want to live in a haunted house but do not. It could also be for real villains like those portrayed in Scooby Doo cartoons.

You purchase a system comprised of a digital audio player, discreet wireless speaker components that look like ordinary household objects, and similar discreet motion sensors. The system is stocked with truly frightening/ sinister ghostly comments that would convince anyone that a place is haunted. It would also not recycle sinister comments and would not go off every time its motion switch was tripped. It would be configured to deceive and thus avoid detection from manifesting any detectable pattern.

My idea with this system is that it would be inexpensive, hard to detect and effective, sold at every large hardware chain store like home depot or similar.

Two goals as I see it one is to take the edge off for people who really believe in ghosts and actively fear them. If there is the ubiquitous potential that its simulated convincingly this might help alleviate someones fear. The second goal would be the potential for those ghost hunter shows to uncover something concrete like an elaborate scam just like on Scooby Doo.

This would've been bunned if it weren't for those pesky kids.

Needs a discreet system, using electromagnets or air jets, to push objects off shelves, disturb papers, etc.

Example: a desk fan that, when the system detects an absence of observers, turns on to maximum and swivels round (beyond its normal limit of travel) to blow papers off a desk.
