프렌즈 시즌3의 8번째 에피소드에서,
피비가 이가 아픈데 치과에 가지않으려고 한다. 그 이유는 피비가 치과에 가면 언제나
사람이 죽었다고 생각하기 때문이다.
Centeral Perk에서 사과를 먹으려고 하다가 피비가 이가 아파서 사과를 떨어뜨리는 걸 보고
레이첼이 치과에 가라고 하니까, 피비가 "All right, fine, fine, but if you are the next victim,
don't come back as a poltergeist and like suck me into the TV set"이라고 대답한다.

◆ 문을 노크하기,두드리기
◆ 강하게 발로 구르기
◆ 불 지르기
◆ 돌과 다른 물건 던지기
◆ 그릇께기
◆ 문을 쾅 닫기
◆ 문의 걸쇠를 마구 움직이기
◆ 창문 열기, 옷장 서랍 열기
◆ 가구를 뒤집어놓고 옮겨놓기
◆ 침대와 거기에 누운 사람을 흔들고
◆ 공중으로 떠오르게 하는 것
등이다.
일부 요정은 또한 흐느껴 울고, 신음하고, 비명을 지르는 것으로 알려지고 있다.
1991년에 개봉한 동명의
영화도 있네요.
