Sweet-Throwing Ghost Caught On Australian Supermarket CCTV (VIDEO)

Here's something that you may not know already: Australian ghosts like Fruit Roll-Ups. Well, this Australian ghost does. If he really exists, of course.

Caught on CCTV in an Adelaide IGA supermarket, the poltergeist was first noticed when the shop's owner, Norm Hurst, spotted a pack of the previously mentioned sweets lying on the shop floor.

Checking the security tapes to see how it ended up there, he saw something truly remarkable - flying sweets. Moving as if they'd been picked up and slung down the aisle, there's no obvious explanation of how the incident occurred... aside from the paranormal.

It looks so real, in fact, that the local ghostbusters - Adelaide Paranormal Detectives, to be precise - have said that the footage looks like the real deal.

But what do you reckon? A trick of the light or something from the other side? Let us know in the poll and comment box below.

Plus, as we're talking about ghosts caught on CCTV, here are a few more sightings spotted on security tapes. Warning: they're not all as good as the one above, and there is a definitely fake - but definitely scary - number in amongst them all. Can you spot which one we're talking about?

They got it wrong...the little ghost obviously DOESN'T like Fruit Roll-ups, which is why he's throwing them on the floor. Sheesh!

Amazing how many narrow-minded people out there always claim the unexplained must be a fake, rather than believe in the paranormal. The video isn't proof enough, so the unbelievers think they can come up with a more creative solution....fishing line through a letter box...really?

I've gone out in a house I used to live in and came home and a mirror that was on the wall was lying face up unbroken in the middle of the Kitchen, its the only odd thing I have ever experienced.

watch the far left light at 42 seconds.. an obvious jump in frames as the light moves/dims..

if ghosts did exist, why would they throw sweets?
10:00 PM on 03/21/2012
potatoes are to heavy

being thrown under the shelving at 47 seconds into the tape ! FAKE

I can't say for sure there wasn't someone else in the store throwing things as we just have the store owner's word.
The other video if you scroll down had many fuzzy shapes passing in front of the camera. I first said it was bugs in front of the camera but then I saw more that were moving like people. I've seen figures like this many times so I'm pretty sure it isn't fake and that these were spirits. I call them 'Shadow people' they 'usually' don't mean any harm.

You wonder why ghosts do such banal things and why people believe in them based on such non-evidence.

I base it on my own eyes in everyday life as many probably do .
