Description

A few feet away from the "bone rack," a tall upright wood element is hung with bones, segments of garden hose, wire, metal tubing, and other materials, tied together, juxtaposed, and wrapped, forming a series of protective charms, This grouping—essentially the compound’s power center—provides not only “general protection” but also an advisory that potent powers are at work on this property.
