My mother did throw out a lot of stuff and my older sister was the same. My father was given silk scarves for us all from a spirit medium and my mum made him throw them into a skip. She threw out a load of linen that she thought was demon possessed as well. For witnesses demons are very real and out to get them. No other people could get that upset by a tablecloth.
She could have used the linen for rags to clean the toilet.
I love demon stories!!
My great grandma told me that a sister in the next congregation over (always the way, isn't it) had received a beautiful engagement ring that was purchased at an estate sale. Her fiancé died of consumption before they wed (demons probably) and she put the ring in his coffin. It came back to her the next morning -sitting on her night table- then she threw it in the river and it came back again. Finally, her father melted it with an acetylene torch and ground up the diamond and burned the dust. That did the trick, no more demons.
That scared the crap out of me as a child. Now I am an avid yard/garage/estate sale shopper.
That was his wife screaming..."YOU IDIOT!!"
^^^^^^^ My thoughts exactly...
Ugh. I remember my mother chopping up a bamboo tray that had Japanese writing & a picture on it. This was back in the seventies, I can't remember whether she was baptized or still studying, but she blamed the tray for the trouble she was having with my dad. She must have got her crazy ideas from the Witnesses-damn stupid religion.
I was unaware of the bicycle method . . . that's good to know.
B of C . . . be very careful toilet paper shopping . . . this can expose a dangerous point of entry.
