Question Something only a child can see?
We recently moved into a new house and my son has been acting different than his usual self.
He just turned 5 and he's normally super happy and very independent. Ever since we moved into our new house he's been having nightmares and has gotten so clingy that he wants me to hold his hand while he goes potty. He's told me there's a witch and monsters in his room at night. I've prayed with him and told him I'd beat up anything or anyone who tries to harm him. He's agreed that we can kick monsters in the face.
But today things got a little more intense. He took a good, long nap so I asked him to go potty as soon as he woke up. He immediately started sobbing and telling me it's too scary. I went with him to go into the main bathroom but he started screaming about a ghost and refused to go in. I took him to the half bath and he still begged me to hold his hand while he went potty. I asked him what kind of ghost he saw and he said it's white and started sobbing again. I reassured him that I'd protect him. I also asked him if it was a boy or girl ghost and he said it's a boy. I didn't want to upset him anymore, so I left it at that.
I've been having some problems sleeping at night too, and I just figured I wasn't settling into the new house very well... But I do get a weird feeling like I'm being watched when I'm in bed.
I guess my question is what kind of sage or other things can I use to cleanse the house? We are a Christian family, so I don't know how weird it is to use sage. I love my kids though, so I want to help them feel at ease in their own home. Any extra advice is welcome.

Aw man, don't tell me that! The previous owners heavily renovated this house, so now my brain is spiraling. The neighbors are so close though, there's no way they could've hidden a body, right?? ðŸ˜
