There are many unsolved mysteries when it comes to the paranormal. The topics of spirits, ghosts, and other entities from beyond the grave have appealed to mankind all throughout history. Many believe that souls remain on earth even when the physical body has passed as a means of resolving unsolved business. Many believe that these spirits may not realize that they have physically died and are lost on our physical plane. Many have the opinion that ghosts wander along with the living in an attempt to pay penance to the acts and thoughts that they had while on earth. Many believe that spirits come in the form of angels and demons and are part of the never ending battle of good versus evil.
Regardless of what form ghosts or spirits come in and why they are present, it is a fact that the living is not alone. There have been countless paranormal investigations, documented evidence in the form of ghost pictures, ghost videos, and even electronic voice recording equipment that validate the fact that ghosts are, in fact, very real.
demon huntings
A demon is considered to be a powerful, supernatural being that is generally malevolent (wishing or appearing to wish evil to others) in character. The word demon comes from the Greek word daimon, which means a divine or semi-divine power that determined a person's fate. Some believe demons are angels who have fallen from grace or have chosen to take the cross over to the dark side, so to speak.
Demons are evil, supernatural beings of intelligence, wit, and immense power. They have the power to invade our homes, attach themselves to objects, and inflict torture both mentally and emotionally by attacking or even possessing the human body.
Demons are usually portrayed as large, muscular, human-like creatures. They are usually thought to be red, winged, and even surrounded by fire. They can take on any form they want, but mostly commonly it is a half man, half animal form.
In many cases, demons are summoned by someone using a Ouija board, or tinkering with some form to magic, witchcraft,or demon worship that perhaps they shouldn't be tinkering with. They most likely don't know what they could be getting themselves into.
Demonic hauntings are commonly represented by a stench similar to rotting flesh or sulfuric acid. The air in the area will feel thick and the temperature will drastically change, typically becoming warmer, although intense coldness is sometimes present. Growling sounds seem to come from everywhere all at once. The sounds of menacing laughter or disembodies voices speaking in foreign tongues, usually Latin, can often be heard. The demon may make verbal threats or throw objects. They like to push, shove, hit, and scratch. They may cause nightmares, consistent bad luck, and overwhelming senses of hate, anger, and evil. A demon's main goal seems to be to break down a person's free will so they can possess them.
Demons have the ability to morph into any shape they want. They can change from a human form to an inhuman form before your very eyes. They are neither male nor female, but will change to whatever meets their need at the time. Demons are commonly seen as black masses standing in doorways or in the corner of the room.
Demon hauntings usually start in a subtle way. Faucets dripping, scratches in the walls, thumping sounds. These behaviors are typically the same behaviors displayed by a poltergeist, but more extreme. It's common for several entities to exist in one location with a strong evil presence seemingly controlling the others and not allowing them to cross over.
It is believed that demons hate humans and think them very lowly and stupid. Demons should never be challenged, unless you want a crash course on how weak you really are. Most demonic entities like a challenge and are incredibly conniving; they may have you believing they are good spirits or may appear to have gone away, only to confront you again at the least expected and most vulnerable moment.
Short of an exorcism, which is usually successful, some believe it may be possible to actually command a demon to leave. Be persistent, show no fear and tell it to get out. They will leave, although not necessarily right away, but keep trying. Also, it's been said that demons don't like to be ignored. If it can't get you to fear it, then the game is over. Like say they, ignore it and it will go away. It's worth a shot at least.
Something else that might help is smudging. To smudge your house, open the windows and light a bundle of dried sage. Sage is believed to clear away negative energy and spirits. Catch the ashes with a plate held underneath the bundle and walk around your home to cleanse it with the sage smoke. It is also said that sprinkling holy water throughout the house might work too.
Demons have lived for thousands of years and will be here long after we're gone. Although it's possible to get a demon to leave a place with the above mentioned methods, but they may not necessarily be destroyed. They may just find a new place to terrorize.
ghost huntings:
Ghosts and Hauntings are the precence of the soul, spirit, or the personality of a person who has died. Rather then pass over, for some reason ghosts has remanined on earth. It is thought the person may not be aware they have died, or are a lost soul, or the ghosts may refuse to pass over as they face some sort of hell on the other side due to crimes committed on this side.
Ghosts will often take on the look of a misty or semitransparent or fog-like human form. Sometimes Ghosts will make its precense known through moving objects or noises. Those involved in ghost research believe the ghosts may actually be a form of psychic or mental energy that was left behind.
The cities of York and Derby in England are famous for ghost sightings.
In cultures that hold a belief in reincarnation, they belive Ghosts are souls that refus to be "recycled", because they have unfinished business to complete first. The Chinese have some very interesting beliefs on ghosts that include a ghost can become immortal and become a demigod Or ghosts can go to hell and suffer for all of eternity. They believe some ghosts kill people to rob them of their rights to reincarnation. Ghosts can die and become a "ghost of ghosts".
While most people believe in ghosts there are others that are skeptical. Skeptics claim that often people claim to see ghosts when their senses are impaired, such as when waking from sleep. They also question the motives of others who claim to see ghosts. Sometimes people claim to see Ghosts for money.
Protection Against Ghosts:
It is sad Chalcedony and Obsidian worn on the person will protect against ghosts. Cetain metals such as silver are also protective. Also salt carried in your pocket will keep ghosts at bay. Placing an iron rod on a grave will prevent ghosts from rising out of the ground. Placing an iron horseshoe at the entrance to a building will stop ghosts from entering. Iron nails taken from a tomb and nailed into a doorway will prevent nightmares. When a person dies in a home all doors, windows and cupboards should be unlocked so as to allow the ghosts free passage out of the house and avoid any future hauntings. Corpses should always be carried out feet first so the ghost of the corpse will not return. During the funeral all furniture in the house must be rearanged so that if the ghost returns it will not recognize the place and leave. Also one must not speak bad of the dead or the ghosts may come and haunt them.
