Affecting countless people across the globe, these encounters often blur the line between the psychological, the paranormal, and the profoundly spiritual. John shares his own harrowing personal battles with demonic forces, including an intense three-month ordeal in which his daughter and entire family fought against a relentless spiritual assault.With raw honesty and compassion, John walks us through the fear, the struggle, and the path to resilience—reminding listeners that it's okay to speak up, seek help, and know they are not alone.We also explore riveting accounts of exorcisms, real-life stories of possession and deliverance, and the quiet battles waged by those still fighting unseen forces. Along the way, we venture into deeper rabbit holes: the whispered rumors of high-level demonic prisoners held within the Vatican's hidden chambers, centuries-old secrets, and the tantalizing questions that remain unanswered.From sleep paralysis to malevolent hauntings, we examine how these phenomena may all connect as varying expressions of spiritual attack—far more common than most people realize.Prepare for a gripping, eye-opening conversation that challenges what we think you know about the forces operating just beyond our everyday perception. Whether you're a skeptic, a seeker, or someone who has faced the darkness yourself, this episode offers both chills and hope.https://linktr.ee/dairylandfrightsGot a mind-blowing paranormal encounter, cryptid sighting, UFO experience, or any high-strangeness story that still gives you chills?

France, 1634. In the walled town of Loudun, a group of nuns began to scream, convulse, and claim they were tormented by unseen forces. They said demons spoke through them, twisted their bodies, and named the man responsible.What followed was not just an exorcism, but a public spectacle of fear, obsession, and vengeance that would end in fire.Because in Loudun, the question was never simply whether the devil had arrived. It was who stood to gain from everyone believing he had.The BOOKBY US A COFFEESubscribe to our PATREONEMAIL us your storiesJoin us on INSTAGRAMJoin us on TWITTERJoin us on FACEBOOKVisit our WEBSITEResearch:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudun_possessionshttps://demonology.en-academic.com/357/Loudun_PossessionsSarah xx"Spacial Winds," Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licenced under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licencehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/SURVEY Hosted on Acast.

During the Middle Ages, a French convent experienced an epidemic like no other—the nuns couldn't stop acting like cats. The behavior was so strange it caused an army to intervene. But it's not the only time in history a plague like this has affected nuns—which makes many wonder if it's the work of the devil himself.

Drawing from his personal account, Michael describes the events that led him to believe he was facing a form of possession, as well as the impact those experiences had on his life, relationships, and sense of self. His story touches on themes of fear, resilience, and the search for understanding in the face of extreme circumstances.

What role do cultural, religious, and psychological frameworks play in shaping those interpretations? And how can such stories be explored with both empathy and critical thinking?

What happens when a person believes they have come face-to-face with something truly malevolent? In this chilling and deeply intense episode, Bill Bean, author of Dark Force, shares his experiences with what he describes as demonic possession and spiritual warfare—offering a firsthand account of encounters that challenged his understanding of reality and faith. Drawing from personal experiences and his work helping others who claim to be affected by similar phenomena, Bill discusses the signs, struggles, and emotional toll associated with what is often described as negative spiritual influence. He explores how fear, vulnerability, and belief can intersect in powerful ways—and how individuals seek protection, healing, and resolution. This episode raises profound and often unsettling questions about the nature of evil, the boundaries between psychological and spiritual experiences, and the ways different belief systems interpret such encounters. Are these events manifestations of the mind, expressions of trauma, or something beyond current understanding? Join us for a gripping and thought-provoking conversation that ventures into one of the most controversial and emotionally charged areas of the paranormal—where fear meets faith, and where the search for answers can lead into the darkest corners of human experience.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

What if humanity is facing a battle far beyond politics and current events — one involving technology, spiritual warfare, and the future of human existence itself? In this powerful and thought-provoking episode, Dr. Carrie Madej joins Michael Jaco to discuss some of the most controversial and fascinating topics of our time, including reptilian entities, human robotics, cloning, demonic possession, ancient pyramids, and the life-changing power of love, prayer, and God. Dr. Madej is an Osteopathic and Internal Medicine physician who received her medical degree from Kansas City University College of Osteopathic Medicine in 2001. After serving as a medical director, private clinician, and professor of medical students, she became widely known in 2020 for speaking out against experimental COVID shots and warning the public about deeper agendas involving transhumanism, nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, and genetic modification. In this conversation, Dr. Madej shares why she believes humanity is being pushed toward a dangerous future where technology may alter what it means to be human — and how spiritual discernment is more critical now than ever before. Topics discussed include: The possibility of reptilian and non-human influences throughout history The rise of human robotics, AI, and transhumanism Concerns surrounding cloning and synthetic human creation The reality of demonic possession and spiritual warfare The mysteries and hidden purpose behind ancient pyramids and sacred structures Why love, prayer, faith, and connection to God may be humanity's greatest protection Dr. Madej explains why she believes the body has the God-given ability to heal itself when body, mind, and spirit are aligned — and why reconnecting to the sacredness of life is essential in the times ahead. Her message is one of both warning and hope: No matter how dark the world may appear, faith and truth remain stronger than fear. If you've ever questioned where humanity is heading, what forces may be influencing our world, or how spirituality connects to health and healing — this episode will challenge everything you think you know.
The Anneliese Michel exorcism remains one of the most disturbing and controversial cases in modern religious history—a story of alleged demonic possession, failed medical treatment, Catholic ritual, and a young woman whose death still fuels arguments about faith, mental illness, epilepsy, and neglect. In this episode of Terrifying & True, we go beyond the sensational “real exorcism” legend and into the documented tragedy behind the case: a deeply religious woman in West Germany, months of ritual intervention, a body wasting away in plain sight, and the horrifying question of what happens when conviction replaces care. We trace the full arc of the case, from Anneliese Michel's early medical struggles and reported seizures to the growing belief that she was possessed, the Church-approved exorcism rites carried out by Fathers Ernst Alt and Arnold Renz, and the devastating collapse that ended in her death on July 1, 1976. The episode also follows the aftermath: the criminal trial, the role of her parents, the suspended sentences for negligent homicide, and the reason this case still endures as one of the darkest intersections of Catholic exorcism, psychological suffering, and preventable death. Inside this episode:Who Anneliese Michel was before the case became world-famousEpilepsy, psychiatric symptoms, and spiritual interpretationHow the possession narrative took holdThe months-long Catholic exorcism ritesWhy medical treatment stoppedHer death from malnutrition and dehydrationThe 1978 trial of her parents and the priestsWhy the real horror is more disturbing than the legendIf you're drawn to true exorcism stories, real demonic possession cases, Catholic horror, paranormal true crime, religious mystery, and the devastating gray area where belief and mental illness collide, this episode is essential listening. The Anneliese Michel case is frightening not because it might prove a demon was in the room—but because a suffering young woman was, and the people around her could no longer see her clearly enough to save her.We're telling that story tonight.

Michael Gagliardi joins us in the basement to share his harrowing true story of growing up with a demonically possessed mother in a small town in Ontario, Canada. From age three, Michael witnessed his mother's terrifying transformation as demonic forces took complete control over the next twelve years. Broken teeth, black eyes, guttural voices, and inhuman strength became the norm in a household where Michael was isolated and starving while his father worked hours away. He survived by sleeping with a hockey stick and barricading his door each night against a woman who had become unrecognizable. But Michael's story doesn't end in darkness. After escaping to California, meeting his wife just ten days later, and discovering that his mother died the very day he left, Michael encountered Jesus on a bus in a moment that changed everything. Now a student of spiritual warfare with decades of research behind him, Michael shares his insights on the kingdom of darkness, the reality of demonic possession, and why the name of Jesus remains the ultimate litmus test for every supernatural encounter. This is a testimony of survival, redemption, and hard-won wisdom from someone who lived with the enemy. Want to listen to this episode and an entire back catalog of exclusive members-only content?

Send us a textThis episode dives into one of the most misunderstood (and frequently muddied) conversations in faith circles: Demonic Possession vs. Demonic Oppression. Same enemy, very different playbooks.Can a believer in Jesus Christ be possessed? Or is oppression the real battlefield? And what does oppression actually look like when it's not the possession spinning heads and Hollywood sound effects?As I sit down with Duffy, we unpack the confusion, the theology, and the very real experiences he's had with both. And here's the twist—oppression might actually be the scarier one. Why? Because it's quiet. It's subtle. It blends in. No flashing red warning lights… just slow, sneaky influence that hides in plain sight.We go deep, we get honest, and yes—we even laugh a little (because sometimes humor is the only way to talk about heavy things without losing your mind).This conversation might challenge what you think you know—and make you more aware of what's happening around you (and within you).Listen in, share your thoughts, and jump into the conversation. We'd love to hear what you think… just don't blame us if you start paying closer attention afterward

Jeepers Creepers!Arne Johnson claimed that he was possessed by the devil when he stabbed his friend and landlord Alan Bono to death on February 16, 1981 in the sleepy town of Brookfield, CT. Prior to that, the affable 19 year old had been present at several exorcisms performed on his fiancé's little brother, David Glatzl. At the last exorcism performed on David, Arne challenged the demon that was terrorizing David to come into him and take him instead. The night ended in peace, with David and Arne seemingly free from the demon's grasp, but famous Catholic paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren told Arne what a terrible idea this had been and warned him, and the Brookfield police, that there would certainly be more trouble ahead...If you'd like to support my escape to Indonesia, check out the GOFUNDME :) Audio engineering by Evette Darensbourg.
We begin this week in 1970's Sardinia, where a quiet, deeply devout teenage girl began to wake up every night at exactly 3:00 a.m., convinced something terrible was standing next to her bed… watching her… and waiting to enter her. Then we head to Christmas Day, 1929, when a well-liked North Carolina farmer committed the unspeakable. Has it spawned paranormal activity? Then we find ourselves visiting the same house, ten years apart, both times the home is for sale and empty... or is it? Lastly, a sweet, sad and comforting tale of a couple so deeply connected, not even death can keep them apart. Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free?

Demonic possession. Flying refrigerators. Levitation during exorcisms. Sigils burning under skin. Remote viewing across hundreds of miles. This episode pulls together raw, first-hand accounts from three heavy-hitters in the field who've logged years investigating cases that defy logic. NYPD Sergeant turned demonologist Ralph Sarchie, Yale-trained psychiatrist Dr. Richard Gallagher, and researcher Nathaniel Gillis. You'll hear jaw-dropping details like heavy appliances ripping across rooms, an 8-year-old reciting ancient Latin during an exorcism, a possessed woman remotely spying on a priest at the beach, demonic voices hijacking phone lines, and mysterious sigils and handprints emerging subdermally after a heart attack. No Hollywood fluff, no creepypasta, just straight testimony from pros who've seen the unexplainable up close. I'm not here to convert you. But these stories play out every day in real families, and ignoring them could mean leaving "spiritual doors" wide open. As a dad, I dig into this stuff to protect mine—what about yours? Skeptical? Good. Listen and decide if it's all coincidence... or something darker. If you appreciate grounded breakdowns of spiritual warfare with a dad / protection angle, subscribe. New here? This is The Dad's Doomsday Guide: exorcism, possession, spiritual warfare, and how to reduce your family's "attack surface."

Welcome, my dark souls! In this haunting chapter of Unholy December, we uncover the chilling possession outbreaks that swept through convents in France, Spain, and Italy during the 17th century. From violent public exorcisms to quiet nocturnal terrors, these cases reveal how fear, faith, and control shaped the lives of cloistered women across Europe. Drawing from diaries, trial records, and centuries of historical analysis, this episode exposes the obscure boundary between mysticism, trauma, and the supernatural. A deep, unsettling journey into the archives where some of history's darkest whispers have been waiting. *Listener Discretion is Advised*****************Sources & References:Aldous Huxley, The Devils of Loudun (1952).Michel de Certeau, The Possession at Loudun (1970).Nancy Caciola, Discerning Spirits: Divine and Demonic Possession in the Middle Ages (2003).Edward Peters, The Magician, the Witch, and the Law (1978).John D.

Catholic exorcists reveal the 5 undeniable signs of real demonic possession that separate true cases from mental illness or hoaxes. In this gripping episode of The Dad's Doomsday Guide, we break down insights from top Catholic exorcists Msgr. Stephen Rossetti, Fr. Carlos Martins, and Fr. John, drawing from their real-world cases of hauntings, deliverance, and spiritual warfare. Discover the red flags they use in the Catholic Church's rigorous screening process: - **Fear of the sacred**: Violent aversion to holy objects, crucifixes, holy water, or sacred places - **Unknown languages**: Fluently speaking or writing languages the person never studied - **Hidden knowledge**: Revealing private, unknown facts about others' lives or sins - **Superhuman strength & phenomena**: Impossible physical power, levitation, extreme temperature shifts, or objects moving on their own - **The 'switch'**: Sudden, drastic personality flips, like a calm person turning feral in seconds Why does this matter? The Catholic Church investigates hundreds of possession claims yearly, but confirms only a tiny fraction as genuine demonic activity. We explore why possession is always a last-resort diagnosis, how it differs from dissociative identity disorder or psychological issues, and the exorcism rituals that follow.

Dr. Carlos Eire and Dr. Kirsten Macfarlane on October 29, 2025 at the University of Chicago's Swift Hall. Levitation. Bilocation. Witchcraft. Demonic Possession. Europe in the early modern era was simultaneously the site of Kepler, Newton, Copernicus–and of eyewitness accounts of levitating saints and nocturnal witches' sabbats. In his history of the impossible, award-winning historian Carlos Eire mines the firsthand accounts and archival evidence of the miraculous and demonic. How did an increasingly skeptical and scientific culture account for events deemed impossible by its leading intellectuals? What does this say about the supposed boundaries between the natural and supernatural that marked the transition to modernity? In this lecture, Carlos Eire explores the major themes of "They Flew" and asks: what makes something impossible? And is there more to reality than meets the eye? University of Chicago Divinity School professor Kirsten Macfarlane offers a response and engages Eire in a conversation. --- This project was made possible through the support of In Lumine Tuo: Expanding and Sustaining the Catholic Intellectual Tradition Nationwide (grant #63614) from the John Templeton Foundation and the generous support of the University of Chicago Divinity School and the Workshop on the Early Modern World. The opinions expressed in this publication are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the John Templeton Foundation.
This week, I had the privilege of sitting down yet again with the one and only TopLobsta, and David L Corbo (AKA The Raven) of "Nephilim Death Squad". Enjoy this conversation as we delve into the proverbial deep end of conspiracy and parapolitics dissecting the anatomy of a school shooting through the untold story of the Columbine massacre, following the echoes of this tragedy to a much more plausible alternative conclusion.Through objectively reexamining the details of this case we pry back the curtain yet again, ultimately revealing the all too familiar hidden hand responsible for guiding these chaotic events into place. The facade of virtue drenched in moral corruption reflects the cunning nature of our unending adversary, spotlighting the manipulative tactics of these engineers of outcome.Please consider supporting our work- Austin's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/TheUnderclassPodcastAustin's Spreaker: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-underclass-podcast--6511540Austin's Rumble: https://rumble.com/user/TheUnderclassPodcastAustin's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheUnderclassPodcast☠️ NEPHILIM DEATH SQUAD Skip the ads.

Fr. Mike reflects on the goodness and providence of God the Father, emphasizing how Jesus calls us to be shamelessly persistent in prayer. Fr. Mike also explains two difficult passages found in today's readings: what Jesus means when he tells the story of an unclean spirit who is cast out only to return, and what Jesus means when he says he comes not to bring peace but division. Today's readings are Luke 11-12 and Proverbs 26:7-9. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

William Friedkin's film The Exorcist terrified audiences upon its release in 1973. They fainted, vomited, and went into hysterics in the theaters. Some overwhelmed viewers left early, only to return the next day, buying another ticket to see if they could make it to the end. But the story behind The Exorcist is just as compelling as the story on the screen. The film's production was marred by tragedy and the unpredictable behavior of its volatile director. The novel the film was based on became a best seller largely by happenstance.

Today, we dive into the heated Halloween debate about Halloween's origins and whether Christians can celebrate it biblically without compromising their faith. We will unpack Halloween's convoluted history, from ancient pagan festivals to modern commercialization of the holiday, and determine whether satanists have taken over All Hallows' Eve. We also reflect on Martin Luther's influence on the Protestant Reformation that was sparked on October 31. Learn how to discern wisely, engage culture boldly, and make faith-driven choices without paranoia. Join us to anchor your decisions in biblical truth and navigate Halloween with clarity and courage.

Send Kris and Rob a Text Message!In 1981 Brookfield, Connecticut, an altercation ended with Alan Bono losing his life—and a courtroom battle followed that tried to introduce demonic possession as a legal defense. We trace the full timeline: 11-year-old David Glatzel's reported afflictions, the involvement of Ed & Lorraine Warren and multiple clergy, Arne Cheyenne Johnson's alleged transference challenge, and Judge Robert Callahan's decision to bar possession evidence at trial. We also examine alternative, earthly explanations—including the Sominex (diphenhydramine) theory—and how side effects might mimic “possession” in a child.What you'll hearVerified timeline of the Brookfield case and trial strategyPriest involvement, alleged exorcisms, and the Warrens' roleWhy the “Devil Made Me Do It” argument never reached the jurySkeptical takes and the Sominex angle: could symptoms be pharmacological?Lasting impact on pop culture, documentaries, and true-crime discourseListen & support Subscribe, rate, and share to help more listeners find evidence-driven true-crime analysis with Southern-flavored candor.#TrueCrime #ArneJohnson #DevilMadeMeDoIt #EdAndLorraineWarren #GlatzelFamily #BrookfieldCT #Paranormal #Exorcism #CaseTimeline #Podcast Sources used for this podcast: https://www.hitched2homicide.com/post/arne-johnson-the-devil-made-me-do-itSupport the showJOIN THE HITCHED 2 HOMICIDE IN-LAWS AND OUTLAWSSTART KRIS CALVERT'S BOOKS TODAY FOR FREEH2H WEBSITEH2H on TWITTERH2H on INSTA

From a delivery room where a doula levitated in mid-air to a school retreat where a student spoke in tongues, these disturbing firsthand accounts of demonic possession will make you question what's really possible.Donate to our OVERCOMING THE DARKNESS fundraiser: https://weirddarkness.com/hopeIN THIS EPISODE: Imagine witnessing an event so inexplicable that it shakes your very understanding of reality. From violent seizures to speaking in unknown tongues, firsthand accounts of exorcisms paint a chilling picture of supernatural encounters that defy rational explanation. Even as witnesses struggle to reconcile their experiences with scientific reasoning, their stories remind us that some mysteries remain beyond our comprehension. (They Witnessed a Demonic Possession) *** The legend of the mermaid is as vast as the oceans themselves, with each culture adding its own twist to the tale. From guardians of the sea to agents of doom, these mythic beings hold timeless appeal and danger. We'll explore the fascinating origins and dark fates that surround those who encounter these creatures from the depths. (The Siren's Call) *** In August 1952, the small Kansas town of Ashley vanished into thin air, taking all 679 residents with it and leaving behind only a massive burning fissure in the earth. In the days leading up to its disappearance, residents reported increasingly terrifying phenomena: a mysterious black hole in the sky, children speaking to their dead relatives, and finally, the return of all the town's deceased in a wall of fire that turned night into day. The last desperate phone call from Ashley told of burning apparitions seeking out the living, before the entire town was swallowed by the earth, leaving behind one of America's most chilling unsolved mysteries… but is there any truth to the story? (The Question of Ashely, KS) *** In the quiet hours of Halloween night 1977, a 19-month-old baby vanished from her crib while her parents slept nearby, launching a desperate search that would end in unimaginable horror. Little Nima Louise Carter's body was found a month later in an abandoned refrigerator, joining a haunting pattern of similar crimes that had terrorized the small town of Lawton, Oklahoma. While the suspected killer would later die in prison for another child's murder, Nima's father would spend decades wrestling with endless "what-ifs" before finally finding peace through forgiveness, though the official case remains unsolved to this day.

For thirteen years, the Smurl family reported being terrorized by invisible forces in their Pennsylvania duplex - entities that threw their German Shepherd against walls, sexually assaulted both Jack and Janet, and somehow knew to hide whenever priests came to investigate. The Catholic Church sent multiple clergy who witnessed nothing, the Warrens recorded hours of supposed evidence, and neighbors threw bricks at the house during the media circus, but no one could definitively prove whether the Smurls were victims of a genuine haunting or something else entirely.

Today, we break down the pain-free-birth movement and explore its theological roots. Can women truly experience a pain-free birth? Where did this concept originate, and why is it so controversial? In this episode, we dissect the claims made in the book "Supernatural Childbirth" by Jackie Mize. Mize encourages women to believe that with enough faith, they can overcome fear and pain, commanding their bodies to obey their faith declarations.

Today, we're joined by Jenn Nizza, a former psychic who turned away from the occult and is now sharing the truth of the gospel and the dangers of New Age beliefs. Jenn shares her story of becoming a psychic, learning to read tarot cards, and beginning a career giving “readings” to people. We discuss the deception of New Age beliefs and why people are so unaware of demonic influence. Jenn shares her testimony of calling out to Jesus in desperation and deciding to put her faith in him and turn away from her career as a psychic. She also shares what Christians should really think about yoga and why we should be discerning about the occult glorification in Hollywood and the music industry, especially when it comes to artists like Taylor Swift.
