Post Summary:
Before I get into discussing the methods and madness that will get you into trouble in the paranormal, I would like to briefly discuss the motivation of spirits, or why they do what they do.
Even though I will discuss the motivation of spirits by type, please keep in mind that they all are in Sheol and that in itself means that their motivation is a best self-interested and at worst outright destructive. Also remember that no matter how innocent and "good" they may seem, they have rejected Christ and await final judgment. So they exist in a temporary state awaiting a much more painful Day of Judgment which they would delay as long as possible. Also be aware that many of these spirits will not make themselves or their motivations know. They will hide from detection so as not to weaken their influence on the living. So what are the motivations of spirits? Find out in my book:
