That wouldn't be true of any ...

Hi

Two ghost hunters say: If an inhuman entity had inhabited the building, it had finally departed. However, that wouldn't be true of any human entities. They would still be present unaffected by the cleansing.

--- Does it say that human entities definetly stayed where they were, i.e. in a building, and they were unaffected by the cleansing?

I'm not sure I understand it clearly.

I don't think they can guarantee that humans won't leave, but if they do, it will be for reasons other than the cleansing. Humans won't leave for a reason directly related to the cleansing. The tenses in this statement are weird, but the meaning is clear enough.

Hi

Right, these tenses made me confused, but I guess I understand now.
