Dream:

There's a haunted hotel in town, that most people seem
to appreciate on it's own terms.  It's evidently not
tremendously evil, but it strikes me as an annoyance--
at once point my sister was pinned by it, trapped and held
against the outside of the building (I think it does this
to have someone to talk to...) and so I take the trouble
to exorcize the building.

Walking by soon after, I'm talking to the people who run the
hotel about what I did, and one of them says "We feel lost
without the other world", and I comment it's not gone forever--
there's essentially a vacancy, and if they wait for someone
inside the hotel to die, then it'll be filled by someone who
likes the place, or alternately they could wait for someone
going by the hotel to die, then it'll be a passerby--

He comments that that was their plan, except they weren't
going to wait-- and so he kills me.

I'd had trouble believing they could be that stupid-- the idiot
created a grudge spirit, and thereafter I put some energy into
hauntings in the style of someone who'd grown up on ghost
movies, with particular emphasis on torturing the fool that
killed me.

I can travel around the town a bit, having been killed near,
but not inside the hotel, but I did need to return to the
area fairly frequently to keep from fading.

I accomodated some youtuber's doing haunting exploration
videos; and I also played a game of trying to influence the
world by doing politically significant dreams revealing
conspiracies that I'm pretty sure are correct, to try to
encourage people to look into them.

Part of the reason for these hauntings, of course, is I get to
talk to people, which makes this afterlife a little less
lonely.  I do worry a bit about getting stale-- one doesn't
expect a lot of personal development from a ghost-- but this
isn't that much different from the "getting old" problem,
really.

When Dangerbaby is in the area I try to give her pleasant dreams,
though I worry a bit about her getting stuck on me doing dream
visitations, so I don't know much how I want to encourage this.

At one point-- near the end of the dream, this is getting
semi-conscious I suspect-- I let her hang around with Sika
in Bali, as in the old days--

Sika then lectures me about the spiritual problems with what I'm doing.

I take all this under advisement-- I'd had similar worries ("getting stale").

I say if the idea is I'm supposed to forgive and forget the
guy who killed me and stop torturing him, that's a hard sell.
