Podcasts about Demonic possession

Join us as we dig into the 1940s “possession” hoax that inspired the film, the novelist who sold it as truth, and the church that cashed in on the chaos.This is how one movie turned fear into faith—and jump-started fifty years of Satanic Panic!Got blasphemous thoughts, hot takes, or questions we should ruin with research?

On this episode of The Hollywood Outsider podcast, it's Halloween, and as we have done in the past for Halloween and Christmas, we like to put out a bit of a compilation of favorite topics or interviews from years past that celebrate these specific holidays. So for Halloween, let's discuss vampires, monsters, demonic possession, and the dos and don'ts of horror movies! First up, with SINNERS taking a bite out of theaters this year, it felt time to revisit the concept of vampires. Most importantly, are vampires scary? For decades fear of the undead has been a driving force of countless Hollywood movies and TV shows. But are they actually terrifying? Then we keep the talk going as we dive into the concept of monster movies, specifically what makes for a great one. We also debate what actually constitutes a monster movie – does Jason or Freddy count, and what about werewolves or vampires – and our favorite memories while watching them. Next up is our Horror Movie Survival Guide! We're just as sick of characters doing stupid things in horror movies as you are, so we decided to compile a list of all of the Dos and Don'ts of horror flicks. For every DON'T do that we scream at the screen, we're offering the correct solution of what to DO! It's time movie characters learned the errors of their ways, and we're here to teach them! Finally, we end on demonic possession. Specifically, are demonic possession movies even still scary? Does this notion of an otherworldly force occupying our bodies work in a cynically jaded society? Do your personal beliefs amplify or decrease your fear? It's an intriguing discussion as we take out the crucifix and take a jab at this topic.

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.

[This week, I was given another opportunity to collaborate with my brothers from "Nephilim Death Squad," TopLobsta, and David L Corbo (AKA The Raven). Join us as we descend into darkness if only to shine a light on the sinister machinations of this permanent establishment, seemingly insulated from accountability, relentlessly pursuing the deliberate degredation of society at large.]Are modern “Manchurian Candidates” real? Today we sit down with researcher Austin Picard to dissect MKULTRA, Project Monarch, Operation Gladio, and the media machinery that grooms patsies, manufactures outrage, and accelerates the culture war. We trace how trauma, pharma, and frequencies intersect; why “programmed to patsy” often beats “programmed to kill”; and how the Artichoke documents, LIBOR parent connections, and high-impact events fit the pattern. We also unpack the online dox-and-destroy economy, why reaction is the real payload, and how to build psychological armor against next-gen psyops.If you're into deep dives on mind control, false flags, media ritual, and the tech that turns citizens into signals, this one's stacked.

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. Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyCHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Lead-In00:01:19.246 = Show Open00:03:14.088 = Part One: Foundation Cracks00:13:02.456 = Part Two: The House Knew Their Names00:34:04.296 = Part Three: The Intelligence That Hid From Priests00:55:32.269 = Part Four: The Evidence That Remains01:02:24.920 = Show CloseSOURCES AND RESOURCES FROM THE EPISODE…List of sources at bottom of page: https://weirddarkness.com/smurl-family-conjuring/=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

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.

The Amityville Horror is more than a true crime story—it's a legend steeped in blood, fear, and the unexplained. In 1974, Ronald DeFeo Jr. murdered his entire family as they slept, later claiming he was driven by voices he couldn't escape. Just one year later, the Lutz family moved into the same house and encountered something far more sinister than its violent history—paranormal phenomena that pointed to possible demonic possession. From ghostly apparitions to forces that seemed to control the living, their 28 days inside became one of the most infamous hauntings in history. In this episode, we dive into the murders, the supernatural claims, and the dark questions that still linger about what really happened inside the Amityville house.

George Noory and author Kaedrich Olsen explore his research into demons and negative spirits that create havoc in the world, how religious exorcisms can actually make things worse for some victims of demonic possession, and how demons use our own fear to distort our behavior and sabotage our lives.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In February 1983, 21‑year‑old Don Decker attended his grandfather's funeral in Stroudsburg, PA. Within hours, he found himself at the centre of terrifying poltergeist activity: torrential indoor rain, objects hurling, lights flickering, unexplained cold spots, and mysterious bruises. The supernatural phenomena followed him home and even into the county jail, where drops of water would materialize on the ceiling and floor.The BOOKBY US A COFFEEJoin Sarah's new FACEBOOK GROUPSubscribe to our PATREONEMAIL us your storiesJoin us on INSTAGRAMJoin us on TWITTERJoin us on FACEBOOKVisit our WEBSITEStories:https://www.syfy.com/paranormal-witness/season-1/blogs/episode-recap-the-rain-mainhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paranormal_Witness#Season_1_(2011–12)https://paranormal.about.com/od/poltergeist/a/RainboyCase.htmSarah and Tobie 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.

The Demonic Possession of David Glatzel and Arne Johnson This week we dive into one of the most terrifying possession cases in American history - the haunting of the Glatzel family in 1980s Connecticut. When the family moved into what seemed like an innocent rental home in Brookfield, they had no idea they were stepping into a nightmare that would tear their lives apart. It all began when 11-year-old David was violently pushed by an unseen force while cleaning his new bedroom, coming face-to-face with a grotesque demonic entity with coal-black eyes and melting skin. What followed were months of escalating supernatural terror - mysterious whispers, vanishing medicine bottles, unexplained scratches appearing on David's body, and the boy speaking in foreign tongues while contorting his body in impossible ways. The situation reached a breaking point when renowned paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren were called in, bringing multiple priests to perform what would become a series of harrowing exorcisms. But during the final ritual, David's sister's boyfriend Arne Johnson made a fateful decision that would change everything - he challenged the demon to take him instead of the boy. Months later, this act of apparent heroism would lead to the first recorded homicide in Brookfield's history and result in the first-ever legal defense of "demonic possession" in an American courtroom - infamously becoming "the devil made me do it."

Welcome back to The Freaky Deaky! Tonight, we're stepping into the shadows of a topic that's haunted humanity for centuries—demonic possession. Not the Hollywood version with spinning heads and green pea soup, but the real, unsettling accounts whispered in church records, scribbled in diaries, and debated by priests, skeptics, and scholars alike. We're breaking it down into four  stages: Infestation, Oppression, Obsession, and Possession. These aren't just spooky stories—they're a roadmap of how some believe a malevolent force creeps into a life, starting with whispers in the walls and ending with a battle for the body itself.   First, there's Infestation—think unexplained knocks, foul stenches, a sense that something's watching. Then Oppression hits, grinding you down with exhaustion and nightmares. Obsession follows, hijacking your thoughts with darkness you can't shake. And finally, Possession—where the entity takes the wheel, turning your body into its puppet. We've got four true tales tonight, pulled from dusty archives and firsthand accounts. Are these demons real, or just the mind cracking under pressure? Can you really go from free to demon possessed in 4 easy steps? You decide.  We'll see you on the inside… ----- TIME STAMPS: 0:00 - Demons, Amirite? 0:56 - Intro 2:15 - Strawberryyyyy  4:03 - Excerpt From Richard Gallagher of Demonic Foes 7:29 - STAGE 1: Infestation  9:47 - Southington Funeral Home Case 12:27 - The Bell Witch Haunting  14:23 - What Draws In Demonic Entities? 15:03 - Past Sins & Sins of the Father  18:23 - Identifying & Breaking Generational Curses 21:41 - STAGE 2: Oppression  23:13 - The Maria Talarico Case 25:03 - The Mary Langdon Case (1670's Massachusetts)  27:23 - How Does a Demon Choose It's Target? 28:23 - Can Believers Get Possessed? 29:53 - Scott Has Control Issues (Obviously though, right?) 33:23 - Spiritual Attacks & Warfare of the Mind  38:36 - Lackadaisical Is Much Ruder Than I Imagined 39:39 - STAGE 3: Obsession   40:23 - Do Unbelievers Suffer Spiritual Attacks? 41:28 - The Anna Ecklund Case 43:23 - St. Columba's Monastery Case 44:53 - Why Do Demon's Target The Mind 45:45 - STAGE 4: Possession 46:23 - The Case of Michael Taylor (Yorkshire, 1974) 47:27 - The Case of Jeanne des Anges (1630's France) 52:43 - "If There's Demons, There's Demons"  53:36 - Majority of The World Believes In Demons 54:54 - Scott's Not Catholic, But Appreciates Confession 56:03 - Accepting Forgiveness Is Difficult 57:23 - Keep Your "Religion is Bad, Blah Blah Blah" Comments to Yourself 60:03 - Next Week: Schizophrenia & The Supernatural (Episode 250) 61:30 - Gregorian Chant Outro _____________________________________________ +PRODUCERS: Eric Long, Daniel Heng, Anthony M,  +BECOME A PRODUCER: http://bit.ly/3WZ3xTg +BUY A $9 SHOUT-OUT: https://holler.baby/thefreakydeaky The Twilight Zone meets Mystery Science Theatre 3000 meets an uncomfortable Thanksgiving dinner conversation with your in-laws.

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.

HOUR ONE: Different peoples build their identity around different facets of their culture: the Italians around their food, the Greeks around their architecture, America around expanding waistlines. The Isle of Man, however, has pinned its identity today on low tax rates, motorcycle races and, oh yes… mermaids and fairies. (Catching Mermaids on Man) *** Would you be willing to eat your meals off the chest of a corpse, in the process, taking on their sins as your own? That's the gruesome job of a sin eater – and there were people willing to do it even into twentieth-century. (Would You Become a Sin Eater?) *** Dr Richard Gallagher is a New York psychiatrist and a psychiatric professor. He has spent twenty-five years viewing exorcisms – and he says 'fallen angels' target the devout AND those who've meddled with the occult. He says it outright – being possessed by a demon can and does happen, and he has seen it all too often. (Psychiatrist Says Demonic Possession Is Real) *** UK homeowners believe their homes are haunted and want to rid themselves of them, while Americans don't care if a house is haunted so long as it has a swimming pool! (Ghostly Homes And Ghost-Loving Buyers)==========HOUR TWO: Investigators noted the hair on the alleged victim's arms was singed, and the skin burned. The grass where he claimed to have had the encounter was also scorched. Did this scoutmaster and the boys with him truly experience a real UFO sighting in 1952, or was it all a hoax? (The Scouts and the UFO) *** An atheist tells his story about being possessed by demons... or maybe he wasn't. (I Thought I Was Possessed By The Devil) *** Is the Thunderbird real or myth?  Most would say it is myth – or if it was real, it's now extinct. But then how do you explain sightings of the massive airborne creature as recently as 2018? (The Giant Thunderbird Lives) *** Sometimes, the darkness of night can hide frightening secrets. Especially if you are alone. (You'll Never Guess What Happened While You Were Asleep)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: Robert Ressler came up against a lot of resistance, but his dedicated focus on the minds and motives of serial murderers created what we know today as criminal profiling. (The Man Who Created Criminal Profiling) *** An atheist tells his story about being possessed by demons... or maybe he wasn't.
