We asked our Spirit Box radio (as seen on the Travel Channel show "Ghost Adventures"), "Does our portable crystal ball possess a resident spirit?"  The Spirit Box swept through the otherworldly static in the atmosphere for an answer, and what we heard was eerie:

"She died ... Is this home? ... Your friend ... So you wanna know ... I've always believed ... the universe ... conscious ... their soul ... family ... experience ... NDE's [Near Death Experiences?] ... if you will ... and I think ... it's time ... absolutely ... Tough night ... I'm fine now."

We interpret this message to mean that our portable crystal ball possesses the spirit of a friend who died and is wondering if she's home.  The rest of the message, intriguing as it may be, is possibly not directly related to our question, though we hope that the final "I'm fine now" is the crystal ball's resident spirit coming through again.

Here's the audio file from the Spirit Box:

Previously, we asked the Spirit Box 44 controversial questions and received very surprising answers.  That project entailed a 20-page PDF, described here.
