Hello! I am very new to the spirit keeping community and recently purchased a 1 cent spirit and a grab bag item. I have not received them yet and as I've been anxiously waiting, I sought out reviews posted outside of the Creepy Hollows site. Ppl say they've received spirits bound against their will and empty vessels. Others regard Ash and Mag very experienced and trustworthy practitioners. I am very confused and I guess what I'm trying to say is that I need some reassurance and more perspectives. I don't want this to turn into a negative thread, but I'd love to hear all abt ur experiences w this business, both negative and postive, as there's always two sides to a story. Thank u ♡

I've had nothing but great experiences with CH spirits and spells, very powerful and active. I can't see spirits and have yet to achieve astral travel but from the somewhat limited communication I do have with my companions I can say for sure that no one's been bound against their will!

The only negative thing I have to say is that the physic readings I've had (admittedly only 2)from CH have not been very accurate, but your mileage may vary!

I've had many wonderful experiences with CH thus far. I've got wonderful companions and none of them are bound against their will. They all wanted to become my companion and I can feel it whenever we interact. They've helped me in more ways mentally than I think I could have done on my own and I owe it to CH for providing the opportunity to meet them. Ash and Magnolia certainly know how to find the perfect companion or spell for what you're needing in your life at that moment. Personally, I haven't had any negative experiences with CH, but I can't speak for everyone.

Don't hold a ton of expectations, but have fun! I'm excited for you and welcome to the community!

Mmm the things to look at when reading reviews are to see whether the reviewers are credible and know what they're reviewing, whether they have potential bias against the topic they review or the producers/distributors/sellers selling them, and whether you can identify/empathize with the reviewers.

One analogy is movie review. For whatever reasons, there are some who love vampire movies but don't like Twilight series, there are Twilight fans who don't like other vampire movies, and there are general movie aficionados who like, dislike, and neutral about Twilight series. Etc etc : P

You need first to understand that you are not buying a pet or a humain slave to server you
You are seeking a relationship (Or in another words a blind date ) with another intelligent creation from another world

CH job is to set everything up for you two to meet with extra to cover almost every angle and you will , but beyond that is up to you, How much you want this relationship and how much time and effort are you willing to dedicate for it

The forum is filled with resources that will help you every step along the way, and amazing people who will guide you and answer most of your questions despite being asked thousands times before

As for bad reviews ether about CH shop or other sellers are mostly from people who jumped in without knowing anything about spirit world.

That's a good point! One thing I've noticed is that a good handful of ppl who have given creepy hollows bad reviews own their own spirit shops. That's not to say that all of their claims are given w malicious intent, but some of them probably are 1spt

I think a lot of people jump in expecting instant results. Spirits take time to bond with, spells take time. I think many expect to just purchase a spirit and have instant manifestations and perfect communication off the bat and not have to put effort into it.

With the recent purchase, how recent? The updates will keep you informed on progress. My recent order had a slight delay with a 3rd party item so it was placed the 3rd and arrived the 29th

I think CH simply has the same issues most businesses have (meaning they are pretty normal), but I seriously doubt they would go around harming spirits...It would go against everything they have written in their book, shop and forum.

An empty vessel could be a plain mistake - which I am sure they would try to sort out if that was the case.

I have had a couple of ordering related issues - they always tried to help. That is a critically important part - the intent to sort stuff out.

I have a couple of spirits from them and spells. I am a noob at this, but can confirm at least a few of the spirits are certainly real and with me.

In summary, I only order from CH and I see no reason to risk using anyone else. I prefer their experience and sharing of knowledge, and the fact that this is their life's work.

the worst i've had with orders is sometimes completed orders don't include items that i've purchased but a quick e-mail to the support team and it gets fixed. I have had some spirits that haven't worked out but overall positive experiences with CH.

As far as customer support and order completion, they have come a long way at working out issues while their clientele base keeps growing, growing growing.
Sometimes info is missing or orders can get a bit mixed up, but it's occasional and as far as I am concerned not so bad considering how many thousands of orders they have to deal with.
If you have a problem you most definitely need to voice it, if you don't then they won't know and can't improve.

With regards to the quality of the work, I've been indulging in their services for 9 years lol. Their magick and their spirit/entity bindings are real.
Some people may have trouble with bonding or connecting to what they offer, but I would always encourage to give them a chance. I'm experienced and I know that what they offer is the 'real deal' so to speak, that it is trustworthy and that they know what they are doing.
Whether you end up resonating or not is a separate issue, as is how receptive you are to certain frequencies of the paranormal and those which they engage in their work.

I think the depth of what they offer is awesome, some persons will recognize this straight away, for others it can mean more when you establish your receptivity, know thyself and thy path.. then you can find they offer many great opportunities through which to cultivate it.

There are spirits bound by them which I did not have *immediate* bonding with (although I have basically sensed and connected with every single one, and I keep dozens, as soon as they were bound for me); you may read some people here claiming they don't get contact from their CH spirits and entities.. but this is a journey, it's a process.. and part of that is on you to make an effort, another part is that these incorporeal companions have a purpose with us and connection/bonding happens at their pace too.
Suffice it to say, any conjured beings from CH that I didn't seriously connect with right away, eventually I was able to develop a great bond with and that 'delay' in realized manifestation is not about CH's work -- as some may complain -- it's just how things go. It involves activity we are capable of noticing, activity we don't notice going on being at a level we have yet to attune to, and as I've stated - the pace of the journey.

So, take things at your pace, enjoy the journey, don't feel any pressure to keep investing in like new spirit bindings if the first you experience is not manifesting as you idealize or expect straight away. Give yourself time to grow into this; spirit-keeping is a very unique path within the metaphysical spectrum. The way is completely individualistic.
That being said, you may have an incredibly active, remarkable first experience; it is worth stating that many do and then notice a 'lull' at some point or another.. don't sweat it if that occurs, and don't feel frantic to amend it with stronger bindings etc etc because that is never the issue.

Cheers~
