Some kind of shade I'm not sure.
Some kind of shade I'm not sure.
Well ever since I had moved into my current residence with my family about 6 years ago give or take In my room there was something in the corner of my room towards the door it would appear at night most of the time when it was dark I don't know what it is its gone when I turn on the light or try to get a clear view of it I mean I can tell that there is something in the dark that dwells in that general area cause I have no trouble making it out in the dark how do i explain it it seems darker than what my room is, I am sure its not some optical illusion or what not cause it seems to just stare at me and freak me out constantly I tried ignoring it or provoking it i tossed salt around in my room it just stays there always watching I am getting really creeped out by it never does anything other than it acknowledges my presence it knows I know its there I think at least. Any advice on what it is and how to get rid of it? [crymore]

What sort of religious/spiritual paradigm do you follow?

Shadow in your house for ... six years? Obviously it's not an acute or aggressive issue or else you would have dealt with it sooner instead of keeping it fed and watered with your attention like a really ugly houseplant. What has changed that you want to get rid of it today instead of six years ago?
Like the boyfriend that won't work and lives on your couch, you need to show the spirit the door - and you can do so literally. Take a broom, walk over to that corner, announce to that spirit you are tired of its crap and that it is there, and you are serving it eviction papers. Don't be mad at the spirit - what you're describing will eat your anger like a ham sammich. Be more like the sheriff who is serving legal papers - businesslike, stern, and guaranteed consequences if you don't listen to the man with the badge. Take your broom and sweep the spirit right out the front door, then shut the door in its face. Salt the entrances of your house (windows included) and the spot where the spirit was hanging out. The salt will disrupt any energies left behind (the spirit's included) so make sure you salt the corner where the spirit was really well. I put salt water in a spray bottle, usually. You might fumigate the room with a cleansing agent like white sage as well. Me, I'd put a pothos in that corner, too.
You might also do the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram, if your magical model is less practical witchcraft and more ceremonial, or light a white saint's candle for St. Ignatius of Loyola (he protects your house from burglars and from evil spirits, so a novena and offerings to him to evict the spirit would be dandy.) It depends on what you can throw your power behind, really. If you don't understand the LBRP, for example, you may not have much luck since it does require practice and understanding, but if you already have that background, you may feel really out of place chasing the spirit around with a broom.
