The recommended way to treat House Spirits varies in different beliefs. Sometimes, you are expected to leave out some milk or some bread for them, and ungrateful mortals may [[BerserkButton make them angry]]. Other times, they seem to desire nothing at all than to serve humans, and giving them payments may in fact drive them away. Yet other kinds only do work when nobody looks, and spying on them makes them leave.
