| An evil spirit is one of the best ways to haunt and curse a person. |
If you think you may be afflicted in a similar manner, it's best to get a Rootwork Consultation with Dr. E. to get to the bottom of what is afflicting you.
Cursing with Evil Spirits of the Dead
In order to understand how this hoodoo spell to remove evil spirits works, you have to understand how and why people curse and haunt people with spirits of the dead.One of the most effective ways to curse someone is to send a dead spirit after them. The spirit works tirelessly as instructed by the rootworker who sent it. The spirit never needs to eat or sleep and it can work continuously while the rootworker moves on to other endeavors. The spirit is bought from the cemetery (usually with an offering of a silver dime and some whisky) and then sent after a specific target, usually using their name, birthdate, a photo or a physical item from their body. Once the spirit is sent after their enemy it will continue to harass them until the goal is accomplished.
Typically, spirits are sent out of vengeance or spite against someone who has been wronged. One of the first things I do in a consultation is ask if there is anyone my client may suspect as a source of the curse. Perhaps it is someone with whom they work that wants them fired. Perhaps it is an ex-lover that is angry for the break up. Sometimes an in-law will hire a rootworker to haunt them so that they'll break up their marriage. The reasons are endless, but the effect is the same: a continual misfortune that perpetually afflicts the person and no amount of uncrossing or cleansing seems to fix the situation.
Spirit Traps Can Remove A Cursing Spirit

Constructing a Spirit Trap to Catch an Evil Spirit
When I make a spirit trap I will typically use a bottle or bowl to catch the spirit. I utilize palo trazos (symbols) drawn on the floor or altar to guide the spirit into the container, and I use items inside the bowl or bottle to ensnare the spirit once it enters. A very reliable hoodoo technique to catch evil spirits inside a bottle uses 9 nails, Spanish moss and blackberry leaves. The nails will nail down the spirit in place, and the magical power of the iron in the nails is well known for rooting energy in place. Spanish moss tangles and captures the spirit and is effective in crossing work. Blackberry leaves have little hooks and snares on them that are good for ensnaring an enemy or slowing them down. I add these items to the bottle along with some ground up sticks used in Palo Monte to draw and capture a spirit.How to Lure an Evil Spirit into the Spirit Trap

Laying the Spirit to Rest
Once the ritual is complete I use chamalongo divination to determine whether I caught the spirit or not. If I didn't succeed the first time I will use different offerings to lure the spirit and try again. Once the spirit is indeed inside the bottle, I will chain the bottle up to restrain the spirit and keep it in place. Then I wrap the bottle with black cloth so that the spirit cannot see what I am doing. I take the bottle to a cemetery, dig a grave for it, and lay it to rest with Christian prayers and a memorial including flowers laid over its grave that it may rest in peace once and for all. On the way out of the cemetery I pay the spirit that guards the cemetery to keep that spirit there for good.Cleansing to Restore the Client to Blessings
