When someone discovers what a spirit cannot pass through, how the heck will he get it in? or she, sorry ladies.

At this point of technology used in this field it is hard enough merely to possibly detect a spirit let alone catch one.

I did however love the energy generator, I would love to have that at a party

Thanks, Jason. Hope you are having a great trip.

Interestingly, we were interviewing parapsychologist, Loyd Auerbach, the other night and he mentioned dibbuks. Of course, much to JD's dismay, I couldn't let that one go....I had to ask....come to think of it, I haven't heard from JD since. /ohmy.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' />

Would love to read his response.

Hi All:

I am out of Russia, wonderful history and buildings - scary government - glad to be out. But, I am still in Europe - Scotland - full of a rich past. Back to the post: If you mean do a podcast with Kevin Mannis, as the original buyer - |I think he could give additional information on how an item can contain a spirit.

Good luck,

Jason

Hi Ryan: Welcome to PUG. Glad you are with us.

The Dibbuk Box raises more questions than it answers, doesn't it? That is why we were so fascinated with the story, and why we featured it in our magazine and podcast. We are actually in communication with the first purchaser of the box (two owners before Jason), and I think we are planning a podcast with him soon.

As for trapping a spirit - yeah - I have never been clear how they did it. Some kind of a ceremony from the sounds of it. I believe that it is strongly related to Kabbalaism and some of the rituals and rites associated with it.

Interesting thoughts!

I don't know why but right now I am thinking of those "ghost in a bottle" things. I know that is a marketing gimmick to make money - but imagine if you actually could capture the ghosts in a bottle and sell them.

Question still stands however.

Maybe, not about the equipment so to speak.

Could be about how your Aunt, wants you to view him/her.

Or your view. The relationship between the two of you.

What if my aunt had balls? Would she then be my uncle?

Askin'.

Could be a hermaphrodite that hasn't completed all of her gender-reassignment program. What a freak show that would be...

Well there's an image I am going to have trouble getting out of my head.

Got me thinking...I'll do Karen's laundry when I'm dead, just not the bathrooms!

I'll take it!

did anyone learn anything--lol the movie 13 th ghost (with monk) shows how pissed they get. Would you trust one with a feather duster---in a maid outfit ????

LOL Very good point.

Interesting question. If we actually understood the makeup of "spirits" and could contain them at will, I have a queston to answer yours. What would be the repercussions of those actions?

Would or could these spirits coincide together or would they have to be separated like in 13 ghosts? Would they be angered or would they exist in harmony? If they are in fact intelligent, would they figure out how to escape and wreak havoc on the folks that incarcerated them? If they are merely imprints like we believe residual haunts are, would they even know the others were in the area with them?

Depends on the bottle - if it was a bottle of booze - I might enjoy it.

Good thinking. Can I change my answer? Oh, or can I pick a barrel of wine? Something a little bigger, lol. Though, they'd have to let me out sometime. I have a list of people I plan on haunting, should the opportunity arise. /smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

Yeah, realistically, it would be offensive to trap ghosts like that, especially since we don't have a solid understanding of their existence.
