Term: ley lines
| DEFINITIONS |
Ley Lines: These are lines of unseen energy that cross the earth. When the lines intersect, an energy vortex is formed. Ancient mystical sites are said to be built on such vortex points, and they attract non-physical entities. Homes or buildings near these points are more likely to be haunted than are other locations.
