I mean anything like cursed or lucky objects, ghosts, etc?

Figured it's the spooky season and I don't know too many people irl to talk to about the supernatural without discovering q-level brainworms.

I'll comment in the thread with my answer.

    No. Why do ghosts and demons only haunt religious and mentally ill people? Wouldn’t it make more sense to haunt someone who is disrespecting the spirits by dismissing their existence, aka me?

    Why does the devil need to follow the same “subtlety” rules as God? Wouldn’t it make more sense to offer many people their wish in exchange for their souls and loyalty instead of masking a vague supportive message inside a hippie song, but only if you play it backwards at a certain speed? The devil is doing a very shit job despite having a whole realm to rule over considering most of the world is Christian, and god doesn’t even offer anything to them until they die. If Satan was an employee, you would fire him for being a terrible salesman.

    The world is boring, unfortunately. I would like to meet ghosts and learn about them and the past, but instead all I get is a quiet house. Speaking of which, I actually want more people to be superstitious and believe in the supernatural in a negative way, because that would mean haunted houses become less valuable and I can afford it. I guess the downside is waking up in a burning house because a bunch of lunatics think I’m a witch for not freaking out inside a haunted spooky house

      I don't believe any of it but I think Christians could rationalize that as the Devil needs to be subtle because if he was loud and honest about it, it would drive everyone to God because more people would see him for what he is. The Devil has to deceive by his very nature
