While you were doing fieldwork. Was there ever any beings not connected to possession?

Yes, definitely. There were quite a few hauntings, a lot of random invasions or scares, and every so often somebody called the ambulance FOR the spirit

Thank you for the answer! Haha not sure an ambulance can help in those situations ;) But still only spirits? No other ghoulies, long-leggety beasties or things that go bump in the night except ghosties?

Kind of. We didn't really come across the casual banshee or anything, the main types of entities we came across were: DI (Deceased Individual), IB (Independent Being), SB (Summoned Being), or FB (Fabricated Being). There were, of course, many subtypes as well. Hope that answered your question!

I'm a bit late but, what are the sub types, or in the very least, what are the most common ones?

The most common subtype was DI-A, Deceased Individual (Ancestral). Basically an ancestor who presented themself to their descendents.

Some more common ones were SB-O; Summoned Being (Object), where someone would accidentally summon a being by touching or breaking an artifact, SB-C; Summoned Being (Craft), where a group of people would voluntarily summon a being, and IB-R; Independent Being (Random).
