There are plenty of curses and discussions in the Left Hand Path, Black Magic and Demonology section

The OP probably wants to hear war stories and is not so much interested in methods or ethical discussions... I wonder if somebody will oblige, most people won't be willing to talk about their own practical experiences, I think, especially if things don't go as planned - which would make the topic interesting again after it's been talked to death here and elsewhere.

Correct is there a better section to ask for this stuff even if most dont really want to talk abt it

"General Occult Discussion" is fine, I'd say. Although people on Reddit would be probably more willing to talk about them, no idea.

Food for thought from experience:

Know yourself. There are people who would be more than happy to watch someone’s life burn to the ground because they cut them off in traffic. And then there are halfway decent folks so be sure you’re ok with what may happen.

That initial over-the-top anger can be a powerful tool to use in the working but waiting till you cool off will allow you to better plan and target the working. So are you looking for max fallout or for more specific results.

Cursing people tends to quickly teach you how interconnected a lot of our lives are. A general curse can often go further and wider then you would expect.

May consider not shitting in the fish bowl you share with your target or at least prepare yourself.

Probably the most famous protection magic book featuring real-life stories is Dion Fortune's "Psychic Self-Defense" (it can be found in this archive.org collection or numerous other sites); I haven't read it myself but it's often quoted in connection with this topic.

Telling stories, or cursing?

I once cursed someone in a manner that caused them to have a fire start at their place of work and then they contracted cancer. I can't say if it was because of me, as no magician can ever truly claim circumstances happened because of them, but I remember being quite specific in my curse... Karma might have taken care of the rest

I have read it, with enjoyment and benefit. The best advice comes early on: not every problem you face is a magickal attack. Then she gets into the matter of defense proper. It'd be hard, though, to reverse engineer curses from anything she lets fall.

Remember the DI in the movie "Jarhead"? "Are you the s***bird whose father was in Vietnam?" "Sir, yes sir!" "Did he ever talk about it?" "Sir, no sir!" "Good, then we know he wasn't lying!"

Magickal war stories are often like sexual narrations, and war-war stories. There tends to be more gilding than lily. That's not to say all are false, but use some surgical scepticism and try to dissect the humble narrator's character and motives in telling.

I probably shouldn't have mentioned Reddit as a good resourse for real-life stories because it's mostly questions along the lines of "My hamster died yesterday, am I cursed?" Probably one of the best fictional descriptions of how a curse acts on the victim can be found in

, merely remembering the book's storyline gives me the shivers. It would be an good though malevolent example for a kind of magic I'm hugely interested in - spontaneous close-up street magic working purely on personal power and charisma, without requiring any preparation or eleborate rituals.
