Salt - More Uses Than You'd Think

Salt. We, as humans, use it to flavor our dinner or melt ice on frozen roads. But in the hunting community, there are other uses for it that may come in handy while you're out saving humanity in all it's glory.

1. Salt lines/circles

Have a demon problem you can't sort out on the spot? Get the salt. Now, you might need a container or two, but if you line the doorways and windows with the stuff you'll keep the bad guys out of the area. Seriously. There's no crossing that stuff.

And what if the demon/spirit/whatever-the-Hell's-after-me is already in the room? Or maybe you just want a more compact space? Put it down in a circle and get inside. Just make sure you have your supplies with you, because once you step outide the ring you're completely vulnerable.

Tip: Make sure you have a thick line, because even the paranormal have their standards. If you used two restaraunt packets of salt to lay your line, try again. You'd be dead in a minute or less.

2. Salt Bullets

Yes, it's true you can't kill a supernatural being just by shooting it. But you can load a gun with it and fire away. It'll slow what you're fighting and give you an advantage. Just make sure you use rock salt.

3. Salt 'n Burn, baby!

Well, you've found the source of the hauntings, now what? I'll probably write a full guide on this later, but what you wanna do is what I and many hunters call "Salt and burn." You need to smother the bones in salt, and yes, this will require a little grave digging. Then just burn it up. This little activity should rid your location of whatever's causing the trouble.

Tip: I'm gonna say it twice. Smother the damn thing in salt. I'm telling you, better safe than sorry.

So yes, you might be spending a crap ton of money on salt, but it's worth it. Trust me on this one.
