Why are ghosts so terrifying? It could be the possibility
that they actually exist, according to so many encounters and reality TV shows,
yet I’ve never had the misfortune of having to see one. I’ve seen plenty of
fictional ghosts, however, ranging from light-hearted Ghostbusters-style
ghosts to twisted, pain-inducing ghosts in Insidious. While the ghosts in
Insidious give me the chills, the ones in Ghostbusters do not, but that’s not
to say I’d want to hang out with Slimer any time soon.
Luckily, if you own an animal, they apparently have the
ability to sense things that come from another plane of existence. If you don’t
own an animal, or if your animal is just too lazy to warn you when ghosts are
near, there are ways to repel them. For instance, there are ghostly decoys
you can use to draw them away, maybe make them think their colluding with
fellow ghosts, when the decoys are actually for helping you keep it distracted
while you either get away or try to capture the ghost (in a jar, like a
lightning bug).
Or you could try these props to confuse the ghost.
They point the undead towards the way they’re supposed to go, and assuming they
go that way, you lead them right into a trap. If you don’t see yourself being
able to trap a ghost, or if you find that there’s no escape for you do to
supernatural trickery, you might try one last thing: pull out the ghostly shot glasses
and see if it wants to join you for a drink.
