Ghost story

A long, weird tale of a dybbuk is on eBay for probably not too much longer. Readers of my novel might understand if I said a dybbuk is a kind of nefesh. Not that I believe the story on eBay for a second: In spite of the mysticism in my book I'm a rationalist. But I love to learn about old superstitions, hoary myths, and ancient models of God and soul. I also love to see how these things can bid up an item on eBay.
