    Why am i getting down voted this is litterally the no stupid questions sub.

    Rule 1 of the sub says the title of any post must be a question. Your post title is a sentence, not a question.

    Cthulhu.
    Any of the high-ranked demons and devils.
    Any of the gods.
    The fairy godmother.
    If you’ve got a pair of ruby shoes, maybe the wicked witch of the west or something.
    The monster under your bed.
    Chris Hansen.

        Any procedure to summon cthulhu is made up, so make one up. Or if it makes you feel better I’ll make one up:

        Cook long pasta to aldente, then spread it all over the floor, then roll around it in while praising the noodly limbs of cthon, and asking the eldritch god to wrap you up and take you to the realm between dimensions. And I dunno, pat your head and rub your tummy at the same time to confuse yourself. Confusion and the unknown are the key when it comes to eldritch beings. Add spooky LED lights that shift from green to purple.

        Beetlejuice is simple. 3 times the name.

        Cthulhu is a bit complicated. You need deep sea aquatic components, maybe fuck a fish, live in an isolated fishing community, stuff like that.

        Each demon/devil has its own ritual, so you’ll have to look them up by name.

        For the gods, you need to commit some sacrilege if you want a quick and dirty response.

        For the fairy godmother you need to be poor, orphan, have evil step family that doesn’t get stuck in washing machines and only own rags.

        For the Oz trip, you need to wear a pair of ruby shoes, get high, spin around three times and click your heels while fervently chanting “There’s no place like home.” Obviously it only works when you’re not home.

        For the monster under your bed, the main thing is thst you need to sleep on your bed with a limb or body part of choice sticking out or touching ground. After that, it depends on your monster mostly. Each one has its own preferences. Some like it when you’re clean, others only want dirty or stinky body parts. Some drag you under the bed and eat you whole, others just kill you because you annoy them. It’s all very individualistic.

        For the rest there are many guides online, I’m not going to bother explaining them.

    Those are urban myths that kids tell each other for fun. Their attraction lies in creating a sense of underlying danger in everyday situations like a bathroom mirror, and a sense of thrill in daring each other to try to test the myth.

    If you want to be more afraid alone at home, some understated horror movies like The Ring are a good choice.

    If you are wanting to experience fear and thrill of of overcoming it, some things to try:

    • Go hiking alone in the dark, preferably in an area with no actually dangerous predators.
    • Bungee jumping.
    • Run around the house with your eyes closed.

      Riffing off this idea slightly, but I strongly recommend lead climbing. Perfect combo of fear factor - you fall a lot - with limited risk of actually injuring yourself - you’re attached to a rope!

      Yea i k ow that but i don’t know if everyone of them has been tested by someobe so i guess i wanted to test it as i said for fun . Horror movies don’t do shit for me except maybe jumpscares but thats just cheap. Planning ti do a skydiving someday and hiking this summer. That running around house with eyes closed is asking for hospital bill.

    Some people insist remote viewing and astral projection are real. See if you can figure out how to do them and, ideally, prove them.

    The reason you are being downvoted is because you’re reminding people that the internet has a lot of very young folks on it. People don’t really want to be reminded of that, they want to feel like all the hijinks that internet people get up to are with adults. But if your age cohort is here on a niche service like Lemmy, then there must be more of you elsewhere, on other services too. This is genuinely unhealthy, in many different ways, so it disturbs people.

    So, they downvote you for reminding them of something they’d rather not think about. Afaik though, there is nothing wrong with this question being posted here.

    Regarding the question itself, we do tend to call them urban myths for a reason. People have not yet outgrown silly, superstitious thinking from centuries ago. It’s not necessarily an age thing either, plenty of older superstitious folks too. lol

    Oh, and welcome to Lemmy.

    Read about Three Kings, great concept even if it’s all BS. There is a subreddit about it.
