Michael Jackson tweets from the dead

Posted by Rhiain Morgan on Fri 30 Oct 2009

Forget candles, an ouija board and a full moon, all you need is a laptop for a "teance"

It's Halloween, and Twitter has gone paranormal. Yes, Twitter users have managed to "speak" to not only the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, they also contacted Kurt Cobain, River Phoenix, Jade Goody and wait for it... William Shakespeare in the world's first seance held on the social networking site.

Now known as a "teance", the paranormal party was a publicity stunt by Angels Fancy Dress shop in London ahead of Halloween. The owners asked followers on Twitter to tweet in the people they would like to contact on the other side, and send the questions they would like answered to Jayne Wallace, their resident psychic.

Wallace claims that Michael Jackson was singing Heal the World when she made contact, but "tweeted" that "No-one was responsible. I was warned many times about medication, but the pain was too severe, and I felt I could not survive without it."

In an influx of ghosty encounters, Wallace also "spoke" to River Phoenix who apparently apologised to his family for the way he died, and also paid homage to his brother Joaquin Phoenix, adding that he was was the better actor.

If you thought that was bizarre, Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain actually caused Wallace physical pain before admitting that "drugs destroyed my passion for music, music was what kept me alive. When the music died, I died."

Not one to miss out on a party, Jade Goody also "tweeted" apologising to her mother for not listening to her warnings against marrying Jack Tweed, saying it was the "biggest mistake she ever made".

Unfortunately William Shakespeare could not be contacted. We'll never know if he would have written the first 140 character Twitter sonnet, or he may have apologised for dying before writing a West End musical.

The Free iPhone Guide

To get yourself a free iPhone, iPod Touch, or the latest Macbook Air all you have to do is follow the 3 easy steps:

Step 1 : Sign up for a free Gift
Sign up at the link below to get your free gift. We recommend this free gift site because it's been TRIED and TESTED to work.

http://Gifts.real-incentives.com/2992 (copy and paste into address bar)

You can choose other prizes like free Laptops from this site too! Make sure you use a real email address. Use your real details when you sign up so that the company knows where to send your gift! Remember that they have been proven legitimate, so will send you your free gift if you do everything legitimately!

Step 2 : Try an advertiser's offer
Basically all you need to do in this step is complete one of the offers, this is where the freebie site make their money, if you complete an offer then the freebie site will recieve commission for it. So if you complete Coral which will only cost you £5 to complete, the freebie site gets £25 from Coral. The two best offers are Lovefilm Free DVD rental (a no obligation free DVD trial) and Coral (bet £5 on a sport). I would reccommend you do Coral as it credits in an hour and is really simple to do, Lovefilm however can become complicated and takes up to 4 weeks to credit! You can also try one of the other offers, most are gambling offers. Don't skip this step! You must complete this step to get your free gift!

Step 3 : Refer some friends

This part is a lot easier than it seems, especially now with free gift sites getting so popular. There's lots of people online who want a free iPhone, Touch or macbook too, so start referring them! You only need to get a few signups before you'll be finished. You can ask your friends or your online buddies. I already got a free iPhone without even having to ask my friends for help - there's lots of people online who want a free iPhone like you! One of the easiest ways to get a referral is to do a favour for a friend and ask them to sign up in return. That way, you both can get a free gift!

Basic rules
Don't break these rules! This is the only reason that you won't get your free gift, so make sure you follow these rules!

- One account per household - don't use a public computer to sign up!
