They’re in your house. They’re not paying rent. And they’re judging your every move. We’ve all heard of haunted houses, but what about the ghosts themselves? Why do some spirits linger, while others cross over to the great beyond? Is it “unfinished business,” or is it simply a fantastic piece of real estate with free utilities and an endless supply of live-action drama? In “Poossessed, Obsessed & Slightly Repressed,” renowned paranormal expert Krishna Mohan Avancha, author of over 480 books, delivers a groundbreaking, and wickedly funny, guide to the spiritual squatters in your home. This isn’t just another ghost story; it’s an exposé on the psychology of the possessed, the economics of exorcisms, and the subtle art of roommate relations with the undead. Avancha introduces us to the Daitya, a notoriously stubborn and ancient race of demons known for their divine-level arrogance and a serious sense of entitlement. He breaks down their modus operandi, revealing: The Spiritual Squatter’s Manifesto: What makes a Daitya choose your house, and why they believe they have every right to stay. Vedic Vexations & Boundary Issues: A practical guide to handling a demon who thinks your home’s decor is a cosmic insult. The Economy of Exorcisms: How to evict a tenant who has been dead since 1863—without breaking the bank. Beyond the Haunting: The subtle, psychological toll of living with a ghost who has a flair for drama and a penchant for passive aggression. Blending deep research into ancient lore with a healthy dose of modern-day wit, this book is your survival guide to a truly dysfunctional household. Whether you’re a homeowner with a ghostly guest or just a fascinated skeptic, Avancha will change the way you think about hauntings forever. Your ghost might not have a voice, but it definitely has an opinion. It’s time to find out what they’re saying—and then get them to pay their share.
