Scare Away Spirits with Trisaksri Ghost Repellent

— March 19, 2009 — Unique
Is your home haunted by evil spirits?  The folks at the Supa Boondee shop in Bangkok, Thailand, claim their new Trisaksri Ghost Repellent will rid your home of these unwanted ghouls.

So, what exactly is it and how does it work?  Well, it’s an electronic device with a video camera that supposedly captures the invisible and inaudible signals of natural phenomena such as ghosts. The signals are then converted into a “killer wave” radio signal that destroys bad spirits.  And, please note, I said “bad” spirits--the machine purportedly can distinguish between good spirits and bad spirits, and only eliminates the bad ones.

In addition, the Supa Boondee website reassures us that the device’s output only interacts with spirits and is not harmful to human health.

As proof of the device’s effectiveness, the company’s website shows photos of Thailand homes that were allegedly haunted. The website claims that after homeowners used the Trisaksri ghost repellent, the supernatural guests disappeared.

Wow, the folks in Amityville really could have used this...
Trend Themes
1. Ghost Repellent Technology - Developing advanced electronic devices that can capture and eliminate unwanted spirits with radio signals can disrupt the paranormal investigation and spiritual cleansing industries.
2. Selective Spirit Detection - Creating innovative devices capable of distinguishing between good and bad spirits opens up opportunities in security systems, surveillance, and the entertainment industry.
3. Supernatural Home Solutions - Designing holistic solutions for supernatural occurrences in homes, including ghost repellents, combines technology with spiritual beliefs and can transform the home improvement industry.
Industry Implications
1. Paranormal Investigation - Incorporating ghost repellent technology into paranormal investigation tools can revolutionize the way investigators explore haunted locations.
2. Spiritual Cleansing - Integrating selective spirit detection technology into spiritual cleansing rituals can enhance the effectiveness of removing negative energies.
3. Home Improvement - Offering supernatural home solutions like ghost repellents can provide a unique selling point for the home improvement industry, attracting customers seeking peace of mind.
