Talk:poltergeister

I removed this from the entry because it seems to be reproducing the German word, not using an English word:

1880: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe & James Adey Birds, Faust: A Tragedy, p40
Some curious stories à propos of magic are occasionally inserted concerning certain popes and cardinals,⁵ monks and monasteries,⁶ nunneries,⁷ Jews,⁸ noisy ghosts (Poltergeister),⁹ which come as a welcome relief to the general dulness of the sermonising.
