Soooo..... We're not going to talk about this in the Scientific community? Any idea what Anthropologists or Archaeologists have to say about this?

Shit, this crap is still going on here in America in some places.
In 1994 I worked for a developmentally disabled adult agency and learned that a lot of the clients had been chained in basements or inside cages because the family was afraid of the villages & towns folk finding out they had a “possessed” child. 😢😡
One guy was so traumatized by being stuck in a cage for his entire childhood, (when I worked there he was in his late 20s), he carried around a large ring of keys.
@see_the_sus @Heucuva8 that’s messed up. Sometimes there’s no such thing as a harmless superstition.
@see_the_sus I used to work with a girl a while ago who swore a rival magic user was sending shadow people to the hotel we worked at to cause problems. Those are called bitchy guests not shadow demons.

The area I went to college (well, one of the 3 I attended), was in the San Luis Valley of Colorado. Small rural Spanish/Mexican villages that have been around for gods knows how long. Superstitions were, (are?), a way of life there.
It was heartbreaking and unfortunately several of the clients, including the guy I mentioned, would often hallucinate and turn violent when they got afraid or believed something/someone was coming for them. I only lasted 8 months.
