"with these beans I redeem me and mine"
The Romans had an annual ghost exorcism holiday with certain laxative-related themes.
For just as beans cause the body to expel certain substances, they apparently do the same to unwanted household ghosts.
As seen in Cavendish’s “The Black Arts,” following Ovid.

I built an AI model that writes haunting sci-fi novels in which a vast and unknowable alien other produces seemingly-real replicas of your lost loved ones, just as you remember them but also hollow, since we cannot know the alien other if we do not know ourselves. I call the model 'Stanislaw LLM'
