Podcasts about Exorcism

We love Mel Brooks. He is responsible for some of the funniest movies of all time. Young Frankenstein is also one of the best adaptations the Mary Shelley classic ever made. So, we were both excited to hear about the sequel to Spaceballs. We rank our favorite movies from Brooks and why Spaceballs once disappointed us.We are also huge fans of Fright Night. While there was a great remake in the early 2010s, you just do not hear enough about it. Despite having one of horror's most iconic lines, it does not get that much love. This week, we have two bits of news; one is concrete; one is its rumored connection to one of the most infamous murders of all time.This year for Pride Month we are discussing The Last Thing Mary Saw. It is a great bit of folk horror that is frightening, atmospheric, and filled with great characters. The mystery is engaging and the performances are top notch. It also treats its queer subject matter with a sensitivity that is not seen enough.The first six months just whooshed by and we have a lot to discuss. We cover a wide range of topics. Why do we sometimes consider no longer reviewing documentaries? The good and bad of AI in film. More folk horror, a slasher, and a reverse exorcism all enter our conversation about 2025's first six months. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

What happens when a Catholic priest lets a horror movie be filmed in his church?

Does deliverance ministry have to be dramatic, chaotic, and just plain weird?

A Florida mom is behind bars accused of killing her 6yo son as part of a sick "Exorcism" ritual. The boy's body only discovered 2 weeks after he stopped showing up at school. A Tulsa dad is accused of killing his kids in a murder-suicide, the THIRD tragedy for the same family in just two years. Plus, AI lands a lawyer in a brief case of trouble! Jennifer Gould reports.

In this conversation, BT delves into the psychological and spiritual implications of exposing children to occult themes, the significance of spiritual warfare and exorcisms in Catholicism, the deep Catholic roots in J.R.R. Tolkien's works, and the intersection of horror fiction with real-world issues like abortion with author Scott L. Smith. The discussion emphasizes the need for caution in how children engage with dark themes and the moral responsibilities of adults in guiding them. In this conversation, the host and guest delve into the significance of St. Joseph in spiritual warfare, emphasizing his role as a protector against evil. Scott discusses the importance of masculinity and leadership within the family, advocating for fathers to lead in prayer and spiritual guidance. The dialogue shifts to exploring the zombie apocalypse genre, where Wallace creatively intertwines Catholic themes with popular culture. Finally, he introduces his upcoming book on near-death experiences, highlighting the need for a comprehensive Catholic perspective on the subject.Scott's BlogScott's publishing companyCheck out his new podcast hereChapters00:00 The Dangers of the Occult for Children07:09 Exploring Spiritual Warfare and Exorcisms18:35 The Catholic Themes in Tolkien's Works26:30 Horror Fiction and the Reality of Abortion Clinics31:35 The Role of St. Joseph in Spiritual Warfare40:17 Masculinity and Leadership in the Family47:56 Exploring the Zombie Apocalypse Genre53:43 Near-Death Experiences: A Catholic Perspective

The new exorcism film The Ritual, starring Al Pacino and Dan Stevens, is based on the famous 1928 exorcism of Emma Schmidt, which also partially inspired The Exorcist. The Ritual is touted as more realistic and meticulously researched than most exorcism films, and it does seem to portray the rite of exorcism accurately (as the title indicates, most of the film is focused on the ritual itself). The film avoids many of the worst pitfalls of exorcism movies, such as fascination with the glamor of evil, sadism, etc. It is a Catholic-approvable treatment of the subject in that it avoids theological error, the liturgy is accurate, and God is clearly shown to be more powerful than demons. However, the film is still sensationalistic, not because its extraordinary demonic manifestations are fabricated, but because they are excessively centered at the expense of more interesting and edifying aspects of the real-life case. Those details which would have made the treatment unique and thought-provoking are too often filed down to fit the genre's cliches or to avoid alienating a non-Catholic audience. The Ritual will be in theaters starting June 6.

Demonology of the Highlands: The Infernal Landscape of EthiopiaWhat if demons weren't just metaphorical adversaries or cinematic monsters—but living, breathing entities, tightly woven into the fabric of everyday life?In this immersive episode of Southern Demonology, JJ takes you on a journey to the spiritual highlands of Ethiopia, where the line between sacred and profane is as thin as parchment. Through the lens of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, we explore a complex and terrifying cosmology: spirits that haunt, demons that possess, and curses that linger across generations.From the fearsome twin serpents Barya and Legewon, to the malevolent Shotalay, to the enigmatic Zār and Buda, JJ unpacks how demons in Ethiopian belief are more than just evil—they are deeply human, shaped by class, history, and lived experience. You'll also hear about Ayine Tila, spirits of madness, and Ye Digimt Menfes, curse-born entities acting as spiritual prosecutors.But this isn't just a catalog of the damned—it's a deep dive into a worldview where healing, haunting, and holiness all co-exist. Rooted in ancient Semitic language and mystic tradition, Ethiopian demonology is a living system where theology, psychology, and folklore collide.Whether you're a theology nerd, a horror fan, or just here for the haunted ride, this episode will leave you questioning what you thought you knew about demons—and the people who name them.

The REAL ID Act was passed by the U.S. Congress in May of 2005, as part of https://www.dhs.gov/xlibrary/assets/real-id-act-text.pdf (H.R. 1268). Due to costs, logistical issues, legal questions, its full implementation was delayed until 2008, 2011, 2013, and then in 2014 set to be gradually introduced instead. But delays continued into 2020, 2021, and finally until https://www.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/2025-04/25_0414_fps_id-requirements-for-federal-facilities.pdf, when it went into full force - kind of.  The REAL ID is a new form of https://www.tsa.gov/real-id/about-real-id. Even after 20 years of preparations, implementation is causing widespread confusion across U.S. airports. Up to 7% of domestic flight customers still do not have the new ID and this, mixed with general confusion about requirements, regulations, enforcement, etc., are causing delays and heightening suspicion of every citizen, especially because of the growing frustration and additional screening procedures put in place. However, those without the REAL ID can still fly. How? Well, they will be subject to additional security and the TSA will have to manually check their regular driver's licenses like they always have. These people may also be subject to additional questioning and documentation checkpoints. https://www.tsa.gov/news/press/releases/2025/04/28/tsa-lehigh-valley-international-airport-gets-new-credential?fbclid=IwY2xjawKd591leHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFvaEh4VWJ3RmJadVFVdUhBAR6mF6CiS3Eva2ofGQGsU3L5tLIhNJkpUFiZAm1K74M_UpSAsEciqQY_oTWBKA_aem_3wMgsHVa4FW3Utc3QwY9qA just introduced new credential authentication technology to improve checkpoint screening procedures, yet another layer of security. https://www.usa.gov/real-id“Yes. If you do not upgrade your license or state ID, you can use a passport or one of these other acceptable forms of identification to fly.” The list provided includes everything from passports to tribal IDs and enhanced driver's licenses or enhanced identification cards, themselves basically state-run programs akin to the federal REAL ID. What it does not say is that you still may be able to fly without any of those additional ID cards. U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said that the exemption is not just a temporary measure while the bugs are worked out or a matter of presenting a passport: “If it's not compliant, they may be diverted to a different line, have an extra step, https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-homeland-security-chief-says-travelers-without-real-id-will-be-allowed-fly-2025-05-06/.” Without a REAL ID you can still travel, but you will likely be subject to the same, or increased, harassment, demeaning comments, or downright assault, by TSA agents trained to see noncompliants as terrorists. Anyone having ever opted out of the full body scanner knows this to be true. And by definition, this is coercion: “the practice of persuading someone to do something by using force or threats.” The same tactics were used from 2020-2023 for health related reasons.A https://www.yahoo.com/news/know-getting-real-id-090257989.html: "Passengers who present a state-issued identification that is not REAL ID compliant and who do not have another acceptable alternative (i.e., passport) can expect to face delays, additional screening and the possibility of not being permitted into the security checkpoint.” Notice that the words “the possibility” and not the actual guarantee itself, i.e., coercion. And coercion is one of the main red lines in the sand for any constitutionality of the REAL ID in the first place, because the anti-commandeering doctrine of SCOTUS prohibits federal authorities form compelling states to enact or administer federal programs - also, see Fourth Amendment and Tenth Amendment, which reserves powers not specifically delegated to the federal government to the states and people. This can be avoided by outsourcing the whole thing, including the database. Each state has a motor vehicle department which collects and stores the data for REAL ID and EDL or EIC. All of that data is this shared with the private nonprofit American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA), run by boards, directors, and other agency affiliations related to the DMV in each state. Also, non-governmental entities, including corporations, nonprofits, local governments, and individual law enforcement agencies, that align with AAMVA's goals but do not have voting rights in governance, run the AAMVA. As of May 21, 2025, reports are making the rounds that the https://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/news/2025/05/21/tsa-airport-security-privatization/83767563007/?fbclid=IwY2xjawKd599leHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFvaEh4VWJ3RmJadVFVdUhBAR5FprsNQe5xs23YIi93GovLHkVz87_r7qfnoNZEfe15q7-Oznos2DTb5Lwmeg_aem_Uo91GFvr1c-9wZtd0-Rxag. The REAL ID has never fully been challenged due to political compromise resulting in delays, and states slowly adopting the standard. It's not illegal if states and people adopt the policy themselves through a sort of drawn out coercion of threats and the thought that it will never be fully implemented anyways after twenty years. Proponents, of course, argue that it keeps the country safe, linking the lack of these national ID cards to the cause of 911 - argued for under the Commerce Clause and Necessary and Proper Clause. As https://www.yahoo.com/news/real-id-america-now-national-110039671.html, however, “With REAL ID, America now has National ID cards and Internal Passports.”Interestingly, the original bill specifically says the Secretary of Homeland Security can expand the use of REAL ID for “any other purposes” they “shall determine,” with no other authorization. When you https://www.dhs.gov/archive/real-id-public-faqs, they say “No. REAL ID is a national set of standards, not a national identification card. REAL ID does not create a federal database of driver license information. Each jurisdiction continues to issue its own unique license, maintains its own records, and controls who gets access to those records and under what circumstances. The purpose of REAL ID is to make our identity documents more consistent and secure.”In other words, it's not a card but a standard; its not a federal database, but a state database that links to a nonprofit controlled by the federal government; it's about privacy, even though the records are collected as part of a drag net of coercion and threats; it's about ensuring consistency, but each jurisdiction issues its own “unique license” like they always have. Of course, none of this is discussed, debated, or even known by the public. Instead, they read heartfelt stories about https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opinion/a-challenging-real-id-process-is-stranding-immigrants/ar-AA1F7FE9 who are essentially exempt anyways if they have a permanent resident card, border crossing card, foreign issued passport, immigration services card, and the like. Or they hear about https://www.yahoo.com/news/watch-fake-real-id-sites-164059826.html targeting travelers, as if the “real” REAL ID isn't itself a scam and unconstitutional, which is probably the main reason that DHS says https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-homeland-security-chief-says-travelers-without-real-id-will-be-allowed-fly-2025-05-06/” even without it. So what's the point? It's more extortion for profit (like TSA pre-check), security theater (like hygiene theater in 2020), coercive tactics to enforce compliance with illegal and unlawful dictates (like masking), and another step in criminalizing law abiding citizens (like the https://www.newsweek.com/what-quiet-skies-details-about-secret-flight-spy-program-revealed-1047915). Even the name is a scam, the “REAL ID” as opposed to all those fake sate issued ones by the same states that are now going to be forced to issue the true REAL ID. It's like “patriot act” or “big, beautiful bill.” *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

This is the chilling story of Anna Ecklund—an American woman whose alleged possession wasn't just a brief encounter with evil, but a decades-long war against it. Raised in a devout Catholic household in early 20th-century Wisconsin, Anna was barely into her teens when something unholy took root. Her appetite turned ravenous. Her thoughts grew violent. She couldn't step foot inside a church without convulsing in rage... until 1928.  That's when Anna was taken to a remote Franciscan convent in Earling, Iowa, where a small group of nuns and priests locked themselves inside with her for 23 harrowing days and battled what they believed were not one, but multiple demons, including Lucifer himself. Inside the convent, witnesses claimed Anna screamed with inhuman voices, predicted death, levitated off her bed, and unleashed a stench so foul it was said to be “not of this world.” Was she tormented by true evil—or trapped in the grips of mental illness, untreated and misunderstood? This is the story of a woman whose torment blurred the line between theology and psychology...and left even the most devout shaken to their core.

You know it's just a movie… until it isn't. After watching The Exorcism of Emily Rose, one listener and their roommate found themselves suddenly sharing space with something far more unsettling than just fear. Doors began opening and slamming on their own—even while the cat, usually the culprit, was sound asleep. The television developed a mind of its own, responding to conversation like it had an attitude. And then came the dream: a vivid, visceral experience of possession, control slipping away, replaced by something else. Was it all just paranoia sparked by a scary film—or did something come home with them that night?

In the winter of 1973, director William Friedkin released his iconic horror classic The Exorcist, a film that has shocked and terrified audiences for more than fifty years. Based on William Peter Blatty's novel of the same name, The Exorcist tells the story of a young girl who becomes possessed by a demonic entity, and the two Catholic priests who attempt to exorcise the demon. Even more terrifying than the content of the film, however, was the fact that The Exorcist was supposedly based on a true story. William Peter Blatty had always stated The Exorcist was based on a supposedly true story he'd heard while at Georgetown University. According to Blatty, a Maryland boy, known as “Roland Doe,” had become possessed by a demonic entity and, among other things, underwent a negative personality change and began exhibiting impossible abilities including an ability to speak Latin. It was only through the dedication of one Jesuit priest that the boy was eventually freed of his possession and went on to live a normal life.Since the release of both the novel and the film in the 1970s, a great deal more has been learned about “Roland Doe” and the supposedly true story that inspired The Exorcist, raising many questions about the veracity of the original claims. Who was “Roland Doe,” and was he truly possessed by a demon, or just the intense emotions of an adolescent boy?Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesAllen, Thomas. 1993.
