Holy shi....pment. Go haunt the trunk in the green room. That explains alot about the ghost.
To get people to jump out of the windows, scare them to the max (screaming with tongues vibrating ala Homer Simpson) while in the attic. With any luck, they'll run down the ladder, run back and forth, and finally take a header out the windows near the stairs or on the sides of th house.
