alot of people believe that spirits and demons can not cross over a line of salt or that a circle of salt will protect you. such as on the tv series supernatural, but there are other lore's that believe this aswell. personally i keep a bottle of salt with me in case i feel a spirit but that's just because I'm a believer, i would have thought that no one really knows if salt keeps spirits away because who really knows if spirits are real? depends if you believe or not i guess.
