I do hope you find some means to incorporate these rituals into your fan fiction. :^D
And this...
If the field is triangular there’s no need to risk having vegetable matter where it shouldn’t be, simply walk around it three times and the ghost of the man meant for you should appear. Oh, and this should be done stark naked. Again.
