generalwitchery:

This is gonna get me into some controversy and I don’t care.

Shadowpeople are dangerous and should be avoided at all costs.

Now, there are a lot of shadow-type CREATURES that aren’t dangerous, but are often
mistaken as shadowpeople. I have friends who have
shadow-based familiars, various shadow spirit friends, and I’ve met several
shadow type fae, elementals, and other things. They were quite pleasant. They
just happened to be in the shape of a shadow.

Those are not Shadowpeople™.

You can argue all you want that you’ve met kind shadowpeople. I
will remain firm in my belief that those are not actual shadowpeople. I’ve had
people try and introduce me to their “nice shadowperson friend” and
it’s not a shadowperson at all. Just a spirit that happens to be in the shape
of a shadow.

Actual Shadowpeople:

• are attracted to toxic environments
• have a heavy (negative) effect on the
  emotions of everyone in the vicinity
• feed on your aura/energy until you’re exhausted
• are capable of very physical
  poltergeist activity
• can make people physically and spiritually ill

• in extreme cases can physically harm humans (scratches, bruises, etc.)

Every shadowperson I’ve encountered has been outright malicious and showed up to feed on toxic situations and make things worse. This holds true with the rest of my coven and other witchy/psychic circles I’m in.

Do what you want in your practice, but I won’t help anyone work with shadowpeople because they’re dangerous entities that I don’t want to get tangled up with.

me, reading the beginning of the post: man my house is full of shadowy dudes and cats
me, reading the end of the post: Oh…………………………. Oh. Him.

TL;DR i have both shadowy dudes and a Shadow Dude™ and I have an angel I call on to get rid of the actual Shadow Dude because fuck me it’s a scary motherfucker
