This is Maggie. She’s my healer and protection spirit. As a Wiccan that preforms many rituals and such, I suggest always having someone like her around. I’ve befriended her over the years for having her and found out what her life was like before she inhabited the doll. It’s very interesting talking to her. If your scared that it may be an unwelcome entity or harmful spirit, a simple ouija bored session will do. Ask them questions, but don’t annoy them. Spirits are lovely companions to have by your side, and they can help protect you from things you cannot see with your bare eyes.

Forest Witch
Water spirits of the drowned living in a haunted lake. Trapped underwater forever.
Spoken like a true hero (and ally.) 😌 Point made, loud and strong.
As someone who works a lot with Infernals and some other more “taboo” deities and subjects, I am SO glad to see this. I think we can all learn a thing or two from keeping an open mind.
can ppl stop shitting on demons please
Hell is, like, really, really big. And diverse. There are as many kinds of demons as there are spirits in general.
Not all of them are evil. They don’t all want your soul, or to tempt you, or to deceive you.
JUST LEAVE MY FRIENDS ALONE OKAY
Ghost... I have a question, do spirits never sleep in their life? They are constantly on the move I know I do not know what they eat and drink? They are even sensitive to water... whether ghosts love music :D
and maybe this was your first question?
no. to answer this question. i never sleep so other ghosts never sleep too (my thought). this is the reason why i feel always tired~ it is a circle of endless tiredness.
i am not conctantly on the move just only if i have to~ and ghosts never eat or drink only if they possesses a human body. because a human body needs food and water to live.
yes. spirits hates water and they never near to water.
hm whether ghosts love listening to music remains unclear

It's me again sorry.. will u tell me about evil spirits :D they are invisible they are even transparent and like to enter human bodies... Do they like to scare people do they have the ability to speak when the spirit enters the person does he speak with his voice?
ok. ok anon. because you have the sameopinion as me and apparently think that I’m a ghost~ i will answeryour questions.
and sorry that i do not answer your firstquestion, i was really busy.
ofcourse all spirtits are invisible, it does not matter whether they aregood or evil. I think that spirit just ‘enter’ human bodies if theyhave a use of it. Maybe to talk with living family members or theymiss to be alive… and they always speak with their own voice.
I amone of those ghost who likes to scare people but just for fun. Not tohurt or kill them. Mythought is that the other spirits do not want to scare people. Theyjust want to be noticed.
