I'm a little late to the party, but no one else mentioned Strambovsky v. Ackley, 169 A.D.2d 254 (1991), in which the judge gleefully declares a house legally haunted, asks the plaintiff "Who you gonna call?" and says that strictly speaking the defendant didn't leave the house "vacant" per the contract, since there was a ghost still in it.

Subject: [LAW-LIB:55374] Taking kids to work
We were going to have the kids find "fun" cases - we got the 5th Circuit Judge Garza Talking Heads case, the Conway Twitty Tax Court Memo Decision. Can anyone else think of some interesting or unusual cases off the top of their head?
