I removed this from the entry because it seems to be reproducing the German word, not using an English word:

  • 1880: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe & James Adey Birds, Faust: A Tragedy, p40
    Some curious stories à propos of magic are occasionally inserted concerning certain popes and cardinals,5 monks and monasteries,6 nunneries,7 Jews,8 noisy ghosts (Poltergeister),9 which come as a welcome relief to the general dulness of the sermonising.
