A ghost story for Halloween?

My Jeep is possessed!

First "occurrence"
Whilst making the trip from Spokane to Seattle in the early summer of this year (approx. 300 miles), my girlfriend was riding shotgun. We are just cruising along, listening to the radio (stock head unit), and it was getting really hot out. She decided to use the sun visor to block some of the rays, and she un-hooked it from it's retainer clip in order to swing it over towards the door, so it would block the sun from coming through the side window. As soon as she had unclipped it, the radio died unexplicably. Couldn't get the radio to turn on for the rest of the trip. Turned out to be a blown fuse, no biggie.

2nd "occurrence"
While driving around in Seattle a month or two later, my brothers wife was riding shotgun this time. Similar situation. She wanted to swing the visor around to the side. When she unclipped it, it popped out really quickly and knocked my rear-view mirror off of the windshield... In itself, not so spooky, but...

3rd "occurrence"
Again, driving around somewhere here in town, listening to the radio (I had long-since replaced the fuse). Michele (my girl) is my passenger again. Again, as with the first two incidents, decides to unclip the visor. As soon as she does, the radio dies again...

4th "occurrence"
First of all, my jeep is equipped with a keyless entry system. There is no alarm system installed whatsoever. Me and my friends are at a local billiard hall with big windows in the front, I could clearly see my jeep parked right out front. As we are standing there playing pool, drinking beer, A friend of mine asks me if that's my jeep outside, and why are my hazard lights on... I look over and notice that indeed, my hazard lights are blinking. Puzzled, I walk out to the jeep, get in and check the hazard switch. It's in the off position. I flip the switch on, then off again, lights are still blinking... Confused, I put the key in the ignition, start the engine, and the lights continue to blink. I turn OFF the engine, and they blink for another 10 seconds and stop.

5th "occurrence"
Same night at the pool hall, same thing. Except, this time I am looking right at the jeep and they start blinking again for a few minutes and turn off.

6th "occurrence"
A friend, Shawn, shows up at my house one night, after dark. When I answer the door, he tells me that my jeep is blinking again...

7th "occurrence" (today, which just happens to be halloween)
Last night, when I came home from the bar, when I turned the jeep off, I accidentally turned the key too far, and left it in the "accessories" position all night (for some reason, I can remove my key no matter what position the switch is in). So, when I woke up this morning, my battery was dead. NO charge at all. I try the keyless entry, get NO response. I use my key to unlock it, get in, and try and start the engine. once again, not so much as a peep from the electrical systems... I had to give someone a ride to work, so I borrowed my roommate's car. Upon returning, I got out of the car, and as I walked past the jeep, I hear a fast "click click click click click" noise coming from it. About 3 clicks per second.
Confused, I walk around the jeep and notice that the noise is coming from the passenger side lock. I stood there to see if it would stop, but it didn't. I put my key in the lock and turned it and the clicking stopped. I open the door and try using the electric lock switch, but there is NO response, not even enough battery to even try, yet it the lock was still going apeshit a few minutes before...

I wonder if anyone read that whole thing?

What do y'all think? Is it haunted?
