How Do I Know if I've Got a Ghost?
There are many different types of paranormal entities that could attach themselves to you, and while some may seem threatening, many mean no ill will. Some may even be there to protect you and cover you in positive energy! We asked psychic medium, Joanna Cabot, what some of the telltale signs of spiritual activity in your home are, and she said signs usually boil down to "a series of situations that are really beyond...rational explanation."[1] For instance:
- Drops in temperature
- Unexplained noises
- Electrical disturbances
- Unexplainable drop in mood
- Feeling like the energy is "off."[2]
But, as Cabot cautions, if you're experiencing bizarre activity, try to rule out less otherworldly causes first: "Make sure that the water leakage is not due to the neighbor, that there no rats or animals in your ceiling."[3]
