I was reading about poltergeist phenomena the other day and I am wondering; do animals create this sort of activity? Anyone know anything about this?

Do you mean poltergeist activity as in...:
a) We went out, came back, the room is trashed, and the cat is looking guilty (in this case the answer to your question is yes).
b) We standing in the room, when the vase flew off the table for "no reason."
"No reason" being an extreme site of negative energy, a spirit desperate to get someone's attention, etc.
I personally don't know of any animals creating this sort of activity, but would imagine many animals, such as cats, would be sensitive to it.
The most extreme example of animals reacting to energy in an area I've come across is at Madanjek, the second largest of the concentration camps which I visited when I lived in Eastern Poland. 60 years on and the birds don't sing, no wild animal crosses over the land, and the silence is extremely telling.
White Coyote Less we forget.

Nothing as impressive as vases flying off tables. I had heard of the concentration camp atmosphere. Someone I know visited Passiondale and described the same experience.
I understand poltergeist activity to be generated by someone living as opposed to negative energy from those who have passed. Logical that we should be able to express the same in this world as in the next, I suppose.

Poltergeist activity generally comes from people going through puberty, don't think animals do that!!

That's what I'd always understood but the article I was reading said that people under major stress at other ages could create poltergeist energy. Just wondered whether, therefore, animals might also manage it.....wonder if anyone's ever studied it?

That's what I'd always understood but the article I was reading said that people under major stress at other ages could create poltergeist energy. Just wondered whether, therefore, animals might also manage it.....wonder if anyone's ever studied it? Don't know if anyone's studied it, but I'm not sure that they'd get anywhere if it's a Government study, due to the following story: A Government sponsored University project (we won't say where to protect certain people) decides it's going to prove all about psychic phenomena, and how to control it. The Government are very interested because they see miltary applications and all sorts of hideous uses for magic. The University professor conducts his experiment and managages to prove various psychic abilities. Now he has to repeat his experiment. He decides to use exactly the same conditions, roughly the same time of the week, same time of day, same people, same building. For some reason, he can't repeat the results. So he goes back and tries again. Again he can't repeat the results. And again, and so this goes on. The Government eventually gives up and looses interest. Meanwhile, the local Coven having missed the first experiment continue to run interference once a week on a regular basis (for the good of all - they let the Professor discover quite a bit round the edges, but nothing that can be definitely proved one way or the other). True or not? I'll leave you all to decide <GRIN> White Coyote
