Dybbuk Boxes and How to Make Them

Book excerpt: Can folklore be reality? Part instruction manual, part ghost story collection, and part history lesson, this volume in thirteen chapters is a how-to guide for trapping an evil entity, known as a dybbuk, in a box. It describes the history of the dybbuk, and provides a number of examples and stories of dybbuk boxes, along with step-by-step instructions on how to trap these malicious beings to prevent them from harming others. Trapping dybbuks and removing their ability to harm people is a service to humanity. You should be commended for being interested in doing that. Interesting, and a little scary, this exploration of how you can exert some control over the paranormal will leave you questioning your notions of reality. All are welcome.
