In folklore and beliefs, there is a longstanding notion that the presence of witch feet below a residence can bring about misfortune and negative energy. This superstition arises from the belief that witches possess the power to cast spells and curses, with their feet acting as a conduit for these supernatural forces. The idea of witch feet below a residence suggests that witches have infiltrated a home, unleashing their malevolent powers upon its inhabitants. This belief has its roots in ancient times when witchcraft was widely feared and associated with dark magic. People regarded the presence of witch feet below a residence as an omen of impending disasters, such as illness, death, or financial ruin. Throughout history, various methods have been employed to counteract this perceived threat, ranging from the use of talismans and protective charms to performing rituals and spells.

Ok this might get a little long… there are lots of uses for egg shells!
So egg shells are naturally protective. If you wash them and clean them, then grind them into a powder, you can actually use them as an alternative to salt for casting circles outside since egg shells are actually GOOD for the soil and plants as opposed to salt which will kill everything. Since those egg shells are good for the soil and plants and give plants nutrients, they are a great addition to soil for added nutrients. They are loaded with calcium, potassium, nitrogen and phosphorus which are all fantastic for your plants! SO because of this, I would definitely recommend subbing egg shells for salt if you absolutely HAVE to bury a spell. Just make sure all the rest of the ingredients INCLUDING the vessel or what you are burying it in are safe to go into the ground as well.
Speaking of plants… you can also add herbs to your eggshell powder to make a magical powder with specific intent as well. You can also make that eggshell powder (or magical powder) into a chalk-like stick and use it to write sigils around your property or home or whatever else (as long as you aren’t vandalizing things… don’t do that).
Eggshells are also really good in healing spells as well, or spells where something requires nurturing. You can also use them as a representation of a womb if you need that for something. I also correspond eggshells to fertility to a certain extent. You can also use them very effectively in cleansing and purification rituals, on top of already being protective. They really really handy!
Now since you mentioned curses, you can DEFINITELY use them in baneful magic. I don’t use the powder for curses so much as just broken, jagged bits of eggshells. Have to ever poked your finger on a sharp, broken eggshell? Things hurt! Throw those in a curse jar to slice up your target or even to break them. Alternatively, you can also take the phrase “walking on eggshells” to heart and make a curse so that your target is always feeling that annoying feeling of walking on eggshells.

Reviews for "Suburban hauntings: the eerie presence of witch feet beneath a residence"
1. John Smith - 2 stars
I was really disappointed with "Witch Feet Below Residence". The story lacked originality and felt cliché. The characters were poorly developed and lacked depth, making it difficult to care about their fates. Additionally, the plot seemed to drag on without any real sense of direction. I was hoping for a gripping and atmospheric read, but unfortunately, this book fell flat for me.
2. Sarah Johnson - 2 stars
I found "Witch Feet Below Residence" to be unnecessarily confusing. The author introduced too many subplots and characters without properly tying them together, which made it difficult to follow the story. The pacing was off, with long periods of boredom followed by rushed action scenes. The writing style also seemed unpolished, with awkward dialogue and repetitive descriptions. Overall, I was left unsatisfied with the book and wouldn't recommend it to others.
3. Emily Thompson - 3 stars
While "Witch Feet Below Residence" had an intriguing premise, I struggled to fully connect with the story. The pacing felt sluggish, and the author spent too much time on unnecessary details, detracting from the main plot. I also found the writing to be overly descriptive, which slowed down the overall narrative. However, the atmospheric setting and occasional moments of suspense were the book's saving grace. Despite its flaws, there were some enjoyable aspects, but it didn't quite live up to my expectations.
