The term "poltergeist" originates from German words "poltern" (to make a sound) and "Geist" (ghost), describing noisy spirits that interact with the physical environment. Intriguingly, many poltergeist cases correlate with the presence of adolescents, leading some researchers to hypothesize that these manifestations could be subconscious psychokinetic outbursts from stressed individuals rather than external entities.
