I wont delve into ghost too much because I believe that most know what these are. Ghosts are spirits of the dead, some good, some bad and popular all around the world. Mostly their behavior depends on who they were in the past life and how they died.
SALT: "If you ever encounter a ghost it is good to keep salt on hand. It is a quite popular belief that ghosts and other spirits or entities, whether evil or not, are afraid of it, cannot cross a line of it, or that they will dissipate if they have salt thrown at them. Some people believe that it must be blessed salt, plain rock salt that has had prayers said over it by a Catholic priest, and will restrict a ghost from entering a dwelling. Others believe that the salt has to be directly from the sea." |
