MONSTER KILL OF THE WEEK

Monster Kill of the Week goes to Berek Johnson (28) of Tempe, Arizona. On Friday, April 8, 2011 Berek was tidying up his apartment and washing a few dishes while his girlfriend Ashley was at work. His kitchen cabinets always had trouble staying shut, and Berek had always just chalked it up to shoddy workmanship. But on this day, he concluded it was much more than that. 
Berek is reaching for the last few pieces of silverware in the back of the dishwasher causing him to stick his head well into the appliance. A crash echoes through the kitchen and sends Berek's head into a collision with the counter above him. He scans the area for the source of the sound and spots a smashed plate across from the cabinet in which they are kept. Berek stares stunned at the broken remains of the plate before shrugging off the incident as somehow a result of his own error. He bends down to close the dishwasher and as he does, an entire stack of plates flies into the wall. Berek covers his head with his arms until the sounds of breaking glass cease. Peering cautiously through his limbs, he slowly stands up, when all at once the contents of every cupboard come soaring through the air. Berek throws himself to the ground and crawls toward his telephone. "Who am I gonna call?" he says out loud to himself. He starts to dial 1-800-555-2368 but tosses the phone away from himself when he remembers Ghostbusters is only a movie. The ghost throws the phone back, nailing Berek square in the face. "Enough!" Berek shouts at the ghost and he stomps away in a huff toward a small closet. Ripping coats off hangers and tossing them out of the way, Berek unveils a large vacuum. He drags it over to the scene of the crime and plugs it in. "Show yourself!" he starts yelling at the ghost, and it seems to taunt him as a cabinet door slams shut. "Alright that's it" he says as he stomps on the power switch of the vacuum. Berek grabs a bag of baking flour off the disastrous kitchen floor and detaches the hand extension of the vacuum. Keeping his guard up, Berek slowly moves in a circle around the perimeter of the kitchen until he spots another ghostly sign. Before he knows it, a geyser of water is erupting from the faucet. Berek sees this and launches the bag of flour in the direction of the eruption hoping to reveal the whereabouts of his ghostly intruder via powdery explosion. Surprisingly it appears to work for him and Berek aims the vacuum's hand attachment at the floury apparition. To his amazement the vacuum makes short work of the ghost. Berek pauses, then snatches up the vacuum and rushes it outside to the nearby dumpster and proceeds to bolt back into his apartment. Berek assesses the aftermath of his ghostly encounter and sighs as he says to himself "Ashley is going to kill me."
We'll see how effective Berek's method was in the near future. If it does turn out he effectively killed the ghost, I suggest that Berek might be who you're gonna call.
