Maybe you’ve tried everything, but the distress never truly goes away. If that sounds familiar, know you’re not alone. Thousands worldwide face the same silent struggle. What many don’t realize is that the cause may be something rarely discussed: spirit attachment, also known as spirit possession.
This can affect anyone—regardless of age, gender, or education—and quietly disrupt your health, relationships, and peace of mind.
We also hear from many people seeking help not for themselves, but for someone they love—a partner, child, parent, or friend. If you feel helpless watching someone suffer, you’re not alone either.
At the Dr. Wanda Pratnicka Center, we’ve helped people release spirit attachments since 1968. For over 50 years, our mission has been to bring clarity, healing, and hope. Our knowledge is also shared in the bestselling book Possessed by Ghosts, translated into multiple languages and read by people around the world looking for answers they couldn’t find elsewhere.
If you're facing persistent emotional, mental, or physical struggles—and nothing seems to help — spirit attachment may be the hidden cause. We offer a safe, remote check-up to help determine whether a spirit is energetically attached to you or a loved one. To perform the assessment, we’ll need the following details:
What to expect: Results by email within 2 business days, the option for a follow-up discussion, a copy of Possessed by Ghosts (physical or digital) — a bestselling book that offers deep insights into spirit possession, a discreet, expert service trusted by thousands since 1968.
Privacy Assurance: Your personal information is used solely to perform the energetic check-up and is automatically deleted after the service is completed.
Spirit attachment, spirit possession, and entity attachment all refer to the same phenomenon—they are simply different terms used to describe it.
This occurs when the spirit of a deceased person becomes energetically connected to someone who is still alive. The attached spirit may influence a person’s emotions, thoughts, behavior, or overall well-being, often causing suffering that feels unexplainable. It’s important to remember: this is not a sign of weakness or failure. Spirit attachment can happen to anyone—and with proper help, it can be safely and compassionately resolved.
Spirit attachment can affect people in many different ways—emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually. The symptoms often seem to appear without a clear cause and may persist even after seeking medical or psychological help.
Some of the most common signs include: Persistent anxiety, depression, or mood swings, unexplained fatigue or sudden changes in energy, intrusive thoughts or mental fog, unusual fears or phobias that seem to come from nowhere, feeling emotionally overwhelmed or out of control, addictive behaviors or harmful impulses, trouble sleeping or disturbing dreams, a sense of being watched or not alone, and many more.
These symptoms can disrupt relationships, work, and daily life—often leaving people feeling lost, misunderstood, or hopeless.
Some people are more susceptible to spirit attachment than others, and there are many ways spirits can unconsciously be picked up. Spirits are attracted to and feed off our negative emotions. Most commonly, people attract spirits during times of intense emotional distress or vulnerability, such as during major life events like the death of a loved one, divorce, marital separation, personal injury or illness, or losing a job.
Other contributing factors include holding onto grudges, refusing to forgive, harboring guilt, using alcohol or drugs, or experiencing profound despair after a loved one has passed. Vulnerability also increases during medical procedures, such as surgeries under anesthesia, or during severe illnesses that weaken the body. Activities like summoning ghosts (e.g., using a Ouija board), living in a haunted house, or engaging in certain spiritual practices can also open the door to spirit attachment.
Additionally, people raised in abusive or loveless environments may be more susceptible due to their emotional distress and lack of protection.
In simple terms, the greater the distress or negativity a person is experiencing, the higher the likelihood of attracting a spirit attachment.
In most cases, it's not possible to determine the exact moment a spirit attached—even the spirit itself typically doesn’t know. Spirits often don’t realize they’ve passed away and still believe they are alive, which means they are unaware of when or how they connected to the person they’re attached to. In the spirit world (also called the astral world), time doesn’t exist in the same way it does for the living, making it difficult to get precise answers.
However, you may be able to find clues yourself by thinking back to when your symptoms first began or when you started feeling “off.” Spirit attachment often occurs: after the death of a loved one, during periods of intense emotional or physical stress, after trauma, surgery, substance use, or certain spiritual practices. Reflecting on any major life events or shifts in your well-being may help you identify when the attachment began.
We can remotely determine whether someone is experiencing a spirit attachment by receiving the following information: *their first and last name, date of birth, and address. We respond to all requests with the results via email within two business days. To request a check-up, please click HERE.
Please note that both the check-up and the spirit removal process are conducted entirely from a distance. There is no need to travel to see us, as we have been successfully using this method for over 50 years.
*Privacy Assurance: We respect and protect your privacy. Your personal information is used exclusively to connect with the individual's energy for the spirit attachment check-up or removal process. Once the services are completed, all provided data will be securely and automatically deleted.
When a spirit is already attached to our body, it is NOT possible to get rid of it on our own. At that moment, our vibrations are too low, and even access to angels or other enlightened beings are blocked. Only an experienced exorcist or another skilled person can remove spirits from a possessed person.
Spirit attachments CAN be overcome. We see the “miracles” happen each day and we know that these “miracles” aren’t actually miracles at all. They’re a basic human right. Everyone has the RIGHT to be free of spirits. It’s as simple as that. Our center offers removal services. Click HERE to learn about our removal program.
Yes, you can. Please note that if you request the removal process for your loved one without their knowledge, the outcome can be harder to predict. While most people experience significant improvement, not all do. We are always able to remove spirits; however, it is possible for individuals to attract spirits again over time. In such cases, the person would greatly benefit from working with us directly, as we can teach them how to protect themselves. Sometimes, we find that individuals who were signed up by their family members become more willing to cooperate after a few days or weeks following the start of the removal.
Overall, the success rate of spirit removal for those signed up by family members without their knowledge is approximately 85%.
When spirits are removed, people often describe the experience as if heavy chains have been lifted from them; they finally feel free. Others compare it to having a heavy burden they’ve carried for years suddenly taken away. They report feeling lighter, calmer, happier, more motivated to live, more energetic, and able to think more clearly. Sometimes, even their facial expressions change, with a newfound sparkle in their eyes. The symptoms caused by spirit attachment typically disappear once the spirit is removed.
No, our work is not affiliated with any specific religion. The check-up and spirit removal process are spiritual in nature, but not tied to any particular faith, doctrine, or religious tradition.
At the Dr. Wanda Pratnicka Center, we are guided by a deep connection to a universal God and a Higher Power, which leads and supports our work. We believe that healing comes through love, compassion, and spiritual truth—principles that transcend religious boundaries.
We’ve helped people from all walks of life and all faiths—including Christians, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, agnostics, and others—because spirit attachment affects people regardless of their beliefs. The symptoms and struggles people experience are remarkably similar, no matter their background.
You are welcome here, just as you are. Our focus is on supporting your healing and restoring peace to your life.
