Is a Ghost Lurking in a Factory Toilet?

This had me thinking of Moaning Myrtle.

Thousands of workers at a garment factory in Bangladesh stopped working and rioted earlier this week, demanding that a ghost be removed from their building. The problem began when a female worker said she felt sick and attributed her condition to "an attack by a ghost" inside a toilet in the women's washroom.

lol @ "Moaning Myrtle"

(Did you know the actress who played Myrtle was the female lead in the 2006 Doctor Who episode Love & Monsters?)

Yeah, that's right she was. We recognized her.

Decided to do a really quick write up on this one:

That's a good little piece, Tom. I find myself wondering if J.K Rowling knew about these world-wide ghost beliefs before writing the Harry Potter series. Also, I find it sad that people tend to use the religious beliefs of others to forward their own agenda.

I agree on both counts...

Also I would guess J.K. did do that purposely, maybe itvis why the books and films have world wide appeal.

Relgion being used in this way is ridiculous and all sorts of wrong I agree, but sadly it is nothing new as relgions have been used like that since they came about.

Sad but true...

Also, glad you enjoyed the news item Sherlew...
