There was excitement on Martin Street in Spanish Town, St Catherine, yesterday, when a large crowd gathered to witness what they claimed was a ghost throwing stones at a house.
They blamed a former occupant who died some years ago for the stoning.
Yesterday when THE STAR visited the area, people were standing on both sides of the street close to the house and the occupants were seen moving out.
The residents claim some persons had gathered there from Tuesday. "Up till 4 o' clock dis mawning (yesterday) people still de pon di road a try fi see what a happen ova di yaad," a resident told THE STAR.
Residents said the stoning started approximately three weeks ago but was not occurring often. However, on Tuesday evening things allegedly changed, as they claim the ghost intensified its actions.
It is claimed the ghost began a relentless stone attack on the property, assaulting the occupants and even hitting anyone who was brave enough to enter. To make matters worse, the residents claim the aggressive ghost brought other ghostly company.
"It is serious," one resident said. "One of my friends go over there. When he reached the gate he was hit with a stone. When him enter di house him get (hit with) a figurine."
But with all the claims of ghosts throwing stones, there was only one person who is said to have seen the spirit - a child.
THE STAR was told that the boy had described the person who died before he was born and of whom he knew nothing previously.
While the crowd watched yesterday, there were several rituals performed in an attempt to stop the attack. Among the things done was a ritual to help the child.
"Mi see the woman a hit a little bwoy dat see the ghost and a seh come out, come out, but di ghost was still flinging tings around so mi nuh understand," THE STAR heard a woman telling a friend when we arrived on the scene.
Another resident, Mark, said: "Di lickle bwoy a see tings man. Last night him seh di duppy a play inna him aunty head."
It is said that there are plans to take the child to a church.
The Spanish Town police said they were aware of the incident.
