get this those toys actually belong to the grieving parents who expect to see them when they return also the tin train my son tried to run off with had shoddy craftsmanship and was maybe haunted(?)

of course the parents expect the toys to be there, and of course they will be dangerously haunted. All I said is that the babies won't miss them.

This is why we were taught to just bring rocks to the graves we visit. Find a rock at a beach or riverbed that feels "right" and fits in the palm of your hand then bring it with you when you visit the grave and leave it at the base.

yes they will? the whole pt of the planting of toys in proximity to the dead child (within the radius of its ambient spirit aura - usually about 8 feet for the first few years) is so that enough particles of its spirit get sufficiently suffused into the husk of the toy that the child's spirit can sprout off and be sustained within the vessel of the toy before the ambient spirit aura fades away and the parents lose their chance for their beloved's spirit to live on.

leaving toys, flowers or other artifacts at a grave is a commonly known practice for the spirit to take foot somewhere. it's not just for the good of the parents (who expect the toys to have part of that spirit when they check back on it), but for the good of the baby's spirit.

Just a little more about spirit auras bc it's a topic people don't know much about, is useful for knowing how things get haunted, and I don't want the tuition money I spent on the Postmortem Continuation Sciences course to go to waste

I alluded to an ambient spirit aura. The spirit, after death, starts to radiate from the bones yet keeps in proximity to the skeleton (which acts as a sort of electromagnet). The spirit acts uncertainly according to properties of particle physics. As the chemicals in bones break down by their natural half lives, the attractive power of the bones diminishes - but not linearly. It occurs with a lag and log phase (see diagram) The lag phase breakdown occurs after an average of 1.6 - 4.8 years (95% of population) at an event known as critical bone polarity failure (CBPF) where numerous spiritual sustainence systems fail at once, causing a mass decline feedback loop until it logarithmically approaches zero (but never actually reaches zero!).



Six feet under is widely known to be a "proper" death depth, because any deeper and the aura might not reach above ground to the grave plot (named as such because it is where the story of the beloved's spirit can live on), and any more and it might overlap into its neighbors' plots which is really inconsiderate to the beloved's family when they get some aspects of a stranger's personality mixed up in their child's old baseball mitt. (This latter fact is also why proper grave spacing is a vital concern; mass graves are very dishonorable to the dead's legacy.)



It also allows the spirits to mingle with their neighbors at the same depth who pass into their spirit field and pass along any communications in the spirit chain of all conjoined spirit auras. This is important because during the first few years, the spirit is still in turmoil and needs a verdant support network to help them work through their troubles and come to terms with death. Also this allows for ghostfucking and ghost romance, which can help sustain the spirit aura past the first few years and allow for artifacts to have a stronger haunting past the initial level of haunt-sustainment. For thos worried about age differences in ghostfucking, spirits are ageless and immortal.

Even though spirits are immortal because technically all of their particles never disappear, the area they can occupy and number of particles approaches practically nothing, which is why the practice of leaving artifacts for them occupy is common. Artifacts left in the spiritual aura's radius pick up particles of spirit over time. Random collisions between the spirit particles and the object's physical molecules occur in such a way that the spirit particles can get lodged in the gaps of physical molecules instead of simply passing through as they normally do. At first, these spirit particles are trapped and have no attraction. But in a way opposite to CBPF, the object can reach a point where it gains enough spiritual particles in its physical frame that the frame itself starts to act as an electromagnet for spiritual particles.

In this way, a spirit can live further on past its initial bodily/skeletal demise as it perpetuates itself in haunted objects! It will not have as large of a spirit aura radius in the new object, because there is no better nucleus than a skeleton, but it puts off the rapid demise of #s of particles that occurs when the initial host vessel breaks down. It can haunt these objects so long as the physical frame of the haunted object remains intact. Once the physical frame of the object starts to break down, CBPF occurs just the same. This means sturdier-framed objects act as a new spirit aura hub better than transient and fragile ones (plastic toys work better than wooden toys which work better than flowers).

And before you ask "if skeletons are so good about it, why don't you just put another skeleton beside it to keep it forever," other people have tried it and failed. For one, skeletons still have the spiritual polarity of its initial spirit and that's like putting the matching poles of a magnet together. It don't work. Second, it's a used skeleton you moron, the problem is that it's already losing its spiritual constitution. that's like putting the engine of a car with a bad transmission into another old car with a bad transmission.



I think this covers all the basics. Different spiritual polarities work better with different objects but that's a much more advanced topic I don't want to go into and confuse any of you. Also at that point in the semester I was behind on term papers for two other classes and I ended up bombing the test on that section of the course. It shouldn't have been in an intro course in the first place imo.
