Types of Spooks


Possession spirits- tend to be some of the oldest spirits, they possess host, channels or mediums interface well, and require less energy to possess.

geist- the rascal spirit that collectively pester dwellings, they are mostly present around young children, their motto is don't do it when they are watching. They usually obsess with one action collectively animating a room.

Apparitions- Are weighed spirits, they seek to be remembered they fade as they are viewed, apparitions exist as a faint mist of echos plasma that weighs around the residual soul, they are a rarely spotted ghost, the sad thing is what they seek (to be seen) is what weighs them down. mediums can offer
them passage

astral spirits- these are the trance travelers and the coma patients projected they are the communicator for the types of ghost they are noticed only as a presence they exist on ethereal waves only

Crafty spirits- are parlor ghost, an enigmatic type ghost, including urban legend's, even prank haunting are in is this file.

I love spooks

And the theories behind them. Even though this stands well on its own, I think expanding some to include other types of spooks (poltergeists, goblins, zombies, etc) wouldn't necessarily be a bad idea either.

creepy

i actually know one person who was involved in an exorcism, and he absolutely refused to tell me much beyond that it the whole disturbance started with the kid's obsession with the movie "poltergeist". this stuff now scares the living hell out of me, though i couldn't stop reading about the geist. rich material! best

I should mention I have theatrical

training, as well as knowledge of riggings for ghostly activity and appearances. Dr. Nandor Fordor is a good study to demystifing such claims. I find the underlying things that are claimed to be ghost activity,or even apparitions to be just as astonishing as if they where really actually what they where claimed to be. A form that Nijhas displined in refered to as Shadow, or stealth is an art of misdirective actions sort of like a whole house being used as a slight of hand trick. Improve and idio-motive activity can trigger a poltergeist as well. A good artical to read is Tina Resch' poltergeist. Excercisms have a common practice of discribing what "possessed" person does(to the person that is to be excecised, A suggestive coaching, a casting in a role a person that has acted out seeks to dismiss their acting out on the possession, acts the part to cast out the "demon" that made them "do it" the priest plays their role as well. Revivals use a simuliar showman effect.As a carney I was told and taught how the carneys would even hold the revials after the fair.Blackmailing people even to attend and "be slayed in the spirit" or be exposed as a for example... pervert etc.. People want those astonishing signs though and some one will find away to get them to pay for them every time. I suspect what I am shown to lead me to believe what the person that is expecting me to believe does or doesnot believe themselves, what comes next I am assured and settled on, as I hope others are as well. Faith is a sacred thing.. sensationalism is a toool used by exploitive manipulators., or for entertainment (clearly labeled as such.
