However, the Men of Letters found a sigil that could kill a soul eater if it was painted in both the soul eater's nest and the house the soul eater inhabited.Ī soul eater could mimic some of the characteristics of a ghost, such as causing cold spots, emitting EMF, and causing lights to flicker. A Celtic sigil could trap one, but they were otherwise thought to be invulnerable to harm. Bobby also stated that as soon as a soul eater finished with one house, it would close its nest there and make a new one in another house, taking its previous victims with it as an 'emergency food stock' for lean times.Īccording to conventional lore, soul eaters couldn't be killed. According to Bobby, a trapped soul would also begin to wither away, but according to Death, a soul couldn't be destroyed, and prolonged entrapment with the soul eater would simply cause the soul to appear sicker and cadaveric. A soul trapped in the nest had no way to escape, even after the death of the victim's body. A soul eater lived in a pocket-dimension, called its ' nest,' that existed outside of space and time, into which it could drag human souls from the physical world.

Soul eaters appeared as humanoids with a long black cloak, a somewhat distorted face, and black, empty eyes.
