People Are Crazy, Halloween-Edition

Fun facts for your Friday:

- 23 percent of Americans believe they have seen a ghost. 34 percent believe they exist.

- 48 percent believe in ESP, or Extra-Sensory Perception.

- 14 percent believe they have seen a UFO.

- 5 percent say they have literally seen a monster in their closet.

Update: To steal (and paraphrase) a line from Dana Milbank, this means as many people believe in ghosts as believe in George W. Bush's leadership.
