True story (I swear) from AP news week of March 20

Staff at the Caja de Ahorros, a bank in Seville, were puzzled by the behaviour of their revolving door. Whenever a member of the clergy entered the door it would suddenly speed up and throw them out the other side. Altogether 20 clerics suffered this indignity, including two aged nuns who were whirled around over a dozen times before being released. No mechanical defect could be determined. A priest was called to perform an exorcism, but the problem remained. The fault was eventually traced to a Muslim security guard who accelerated the door's motor whenever he saw a cleric.
