Ghost of interior designer upset that her furniture rearrangements have been mistaken for a haunting.

The ghost of a deceased interior designer was left fuming when her ungrateful customers described her hard work as a ‘haunting’. Lucille Flemington of the Old Flemington House had passed away ten years ago while in the middle of a renovation. However, she was so dedicated to its completion that she returned as an astral projection from the afterlife.

But it appears that her customers mistook the moved chairs, changed curtains, and torn-off wallpaper to be a form of mental torture. It is a fairly understandable error to make. A study undertaken by paranormal investigators after a 72-hour binge of spooky home recordings found two major discoveries. Firstly, watching people toss and turn in their sleep is not nearly entertaining enough to warrant an entire video. Secondly, when hauntings do take place, it is usually in the form of furniture being moved around.

So when her clients, who could not see Lucille due to her lack of a corporeal form, witnessed their couch being lifted, they assumed that by the end of the week, one of them would have been possessed, spewing bile, spinning their head 360 degrees, contorting their bodies, attempting to murder each other, or, god forbid, speaking German.

Lucille did not help her own case after another related misstep. To ensure her customers that the job would be done, she wrote the words ‘I Remember’ on a fogged-up glass after one member of the couple had taken a hot shower. Unfortunately, her customers did not put two and two together and instead called for a priest to perform an exorcism. In ghost culture, this is perceived as an insult.

When the priest arrived, Lucille made herself scarce till he left. But then the ghost hunters were called, and though they had no actual talent or expertise, they did almost irritate Lucille enough to leave.

But stay, she did, and one might expect her project to be complete soon, though her clients constantly undoing her changes does seem to hamper things.

When reached for comment, Lucille whistled eerily and knocked over a framed photo.
