Polteageist may be based on a {{wp|poltergeist}}, a mischievous ghost that possesses objects, and a {{wp|teapot}} and {{wp|black tea}}. It may also be inspired by the idea of a {{wp|Jinn|genie}}, which are often depicted as residing in {{wp|oil lamp}}s. Its forms may be based on teapot forgeries being done in Britain. Additionally, it may be based on the yokai Morinji-no-okama or Narigama, which both take the forms of possessed kettles. | Polteageist may be based on a {{wp|poltergeist}}, a mischievous ghost that possesses objects, and a {{wp|teapot}} and {{wp|black tea}}.
