Being a ghost, Betelgeuse didn't really need a house. He actually preferred staying in other people's houses. Hey, everyone needed a social life, even ghosts! Currently, Betelgeuse was floating an inch or two above someone's couch, staring around at their Christmas decorations and dozing a bit. He had considered stealing one of Santa's cookies, but, meh. The roaches he had found near the window sill were more appetizing.

He was a bit startled to hear bells ringing and a thud on the roof. Sitting up, he looked around.

"Hello?"
