THE TRUTH ABOUT CREEPY HOLLOWS
1. We were the first site dedicated to Spirit Keeping on the internet. You won't find sources older than Creepy Hollows because we were the first to bring Spirit Keeping public. The cold, hard truth is that if it weren't for Creepy Hollows & the other reputable sellers who've been around the last decade this community would be nothing like it is today. For those who've been around for the last 15 years they know how hard CH and other sellers fought for a legitimate place in the paranormal community & how dramatic the first years were with even other paranormal communities tearing Spirit Keeping down. So we all bear the scars of fighting to even get Spirit Keeping on the map. There is an undeniable amount of respect for all the original members & sellers who built this community. You may not agree or like all of them but you should at minimum respect the founders; members & practitioners.
2. Unlike many start-ups these days Ash & I actually do the work ourselves. We don't use conjuration boxes bought from other sellers. We've been offering our services to the public online for 15 YEARS and we actually know what we're doing. I think the time for Creepy Hollows to be questioned as to whether or not we are "real" has long passed. It's been 15 years now, I think we have long proven ourselves to the world.
3. Ash & I do this for a living. We don't have other jobs, this isn't a hobby, we live & breathe our work. Anyone who has been in the paranormal community for more than a minute knows our reputation for our devotion to our craft. So taking pot shots at our devotion to our work won't fly.
4. Our pricing is because we know in this economic climate many people have to choose which bills to pay every month. We try to keep our pricing in line with the economy so EVERYONE has a chance to participate in the paranormal. Because Ash & I do this as a lifestyle daily we do nothing but conjurations, bindings, and paranormal services every day. We don't do anything else so we offer pricing that reflects something that is fair to both you and us. We know how many people are having a hard time and struggling right now & we're not going to exclude them because they can't afford to be a Spirit Keeper. So for any sellers out there trying to tear us down by saying "Their bindings are cheap so they must not be real" your ignorance is clear. Creepy Hollows would have never lasted a year if our work wasn't solid. And we actually care about people in the community & when we can we like to offer pricing that reflects the current economical climate.
5. Creepy Hollows started off as an information-only site and grew into the enormous community of sites it is today. NO practitioner or website would grow to the enormity of Creepy Hollows if our work was shoddy, our vessels were empty, or any of the other petty & ridiculous accusations made by upstart and/or unethical sellers. Any new seller can say "oh I've been doing this 20 years" but the proof is in the pudding and online Creepy Hollows is the oldest resource for Spirit Keeping. Anyone can verify our long tenure of work and obviously we have that tenure because we actually know what we're doing. We didn't come on the scene as a huge site, our following grew because people realized we actually care about Spirit Keeping & we care about our work.
6. We fund community websites out of our own pocket to give back to the community. We believe in the power of a solid paranormal & Spirit Keeping community so we have offered sites like the Best of the Paranormal Marketplace, Paranormal News Network, and ParaEcho (to name a few) where other sellers are allowed to sell their wares for FREE. We give everyone a fair chance; even when some of them use our resources and then go on to badmouth us.
The unfortunate truth about the Spirit Keeping is there are a lot of unethical new sellers that rise up out of nowhere and start badmouthing reputable sellers in the thought they are giving themselves some sort of credibility. Instead it looks petty & most people are far too intelligent to fall for it. Especially when it involves sellers who took help from CH members on our social sites to get started.
Unlike many upstarts who come & go, break up and start new names, or fly off into various ventures, Creepy Hollows has been a solid cornerstone of the Spirit Keeping community and we actually DEVOTE OUR LIVES to Spirit Keeping & the education of all who want to learn & participate in Spirit Keeping.
I strongly urge all of you to defend the reputable sellers (new or old) when you see them being bashed because if as a community we tolerate unethical behavior it will just keep growing.
No seller in the paranormal & Spirit Keeping community became successful because they tore down other sellers. Collectors & Keepers aren't coming to you because they want to hear trash talk. They want to see if you know what you're doing & if you can fulfill your claims in your listings. FOCUS ON YOUR WORK & you will find success! If you want to reach the level of the tenured practitioners then spend the time working on your craft and not the drama.
