What kinda “friendship” requires yearly appeasement? Y’all out here getting bullied and pretending they’re besties.
This is actually the right way to approach them.
Exercise the scary house and banish needy house spirits like gnomes or brownies. If it’s fae, tell them to get fucked, fae are the worst abusers. Don’t let parasites dictate how you run your home.
I have a picture of a house on a leash going for a run.
My ancestors are smiling at me, Imperial. Can you say the same?
Yeah, German ancestors get really happy when you endure pain for the pleasure of it
Damn this meme got me thinking about things
I do not have nearly enough Mormon blood on my hands for my ancestors to like me.
i think eating fried butter is the usual penance for that
The fuck region are you from where they fry butter?
I’m pretty sure that’s Scots.
I, too, need this information. I now know how and when I’m going to die, I just need to know where.
i was under the impression it was standard united states midwest fair food. freeze the butter, beer batter, fry.
Course it’s the fucken Midwest, love em but I swear those lands have the same properties as the Black Forest or the bogs of Scotland. Which is to say the region is collectively insane in a very particular way.
Kinda, but it’s also just an area in which Scots and Germans intermarried and built a culture together.
Same place that gives you fried coke
Why would you fry the cocaine?!
because it’s delicious
America has them too. They just tend to be the hyper progressives that society shunned. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Lay no hotdogs thou.
America was founded by people who moved out because they got scared.
Now I have a hankering for a forest hot dog. Would anyone be so kind? Maybe a side of forest curly fries? Thank you for being a friend.
I wonder if it’s because of what Americans did to the native population.
It’s because of movies and TV.
How many TV shows or movies would have lasted 4 minuets and had no drama or action if someone had just picked up a cell phone? Same thing here.
I mean, the US is bad, but everywhere is just as bad. Groups of humans have been killing other groups of humans and taking their land for millennia.
I think they mostly mixed into the native population after a while though. At least in Europe. Australia should probably have the same problem.
How come it’s always some pale-ass Victorian era ghost? Where’s all the ghosts of kids who died doing tiktok challenges? Wake up at the witching hour hearing a disembodied voice be like
“On god I’m dead, no cap fam.”
“Just like… uh… Amanda was so… like… whatevuuuuur…”
Oh god!!! I need an exorcist NOW!!!
Disco ghosts please
If i got haunted by some fucking teen doing stupid shit for an ethereal smartphone camera i would be severely disappointed.
At that point I’m killing a rabbit with my bare hands just so I can beat the ghost. It ain’t child abuse if they’re already dead.
We should have all the disfigured kids killed in factory work from the early 1900s screaming curses at you in 1920s paperboy lingo.
It’s because in America, the entire country was built on a native burial ground and out ghosts are fucking PISSED. They don’t want corn dogs, they want your bone marrow and teeth.
I have “organ donor” designated on my drivers license. Might that appease the vengeful spirits of our native American ancestors?
Only if you donate them right now!
I think many Americans perceive themselves as having a spiritual ‘negative karma’ so to speak.
Especially religious people and in particular Christians that believe they are born with that negative karma (original sin).
That or we believe the only reason any dead person would stay in the US is because they’re trying to do as much damage as physically possible as vengeance
theres some nice beaches to haunt
And they’re breaching the living with mass shootings and suicides
Almost like a collective negative karma then, interesting.
Are we gonna acknowledge the hundreds/thousands of years Christians used their faith to invade and occupy numerous regions of the world? Then they enslaved the native people to extract local resources for the gain of the
Churchwhite people. Or in the case of America just lynch and murder the indigenous people. Maybe thats why Americans are afraid of their racist origins and ghostsYes that would the source of the negative karma but honestly most Americans are too busy mainlining Sprite and getting cheetoh dust in every possible human crevice while watching grown men give each other premature dementia to care.
I embrace the ghosts in my dwellings. Americans are just afraid of everything. You can tell by how many guns they own, usually.
I don’t know if you know this, but there’s Americans absolutely fucking everywhere around here. You’d want a gun if you were surrounded by Americans too
Can someone from “everywhere else” confirm?
Can confirm, have had mythical beast in house for a couple of decades at this point. Doesn’t do any harm so long as we keep some coins taped to the wall nearby, protects the place otherwise.
Europe and Asia have extensive folklore traditions…
Doesn’t mean they stay in the haunted house lol
they invented those traditions so that they can stay in the haunted house. being haunted ain’t fun but moving is a fucking hassle.
yeah it aint like houses grow on trees
edit also the ghost in my kitchen is pretty cool
aint like houses grow on trees
I’m hoping this is tongue in cheek 😆👏
I wonder if it’s due to the US not really having a strong culture of folklore, like in Europe or Asia.
👻
We use to take care of our fae friends.
I’d buy a carbon monoxide monitor, if I was that guy.
Good idea if they have gas. But it’s probably just the photos framed on the wall.
Or the electrical outlets. I always thought of them as little guys when I was a kid.
I don’t think there’s anyone in the world that still use town gas over methane.
