Demons have always intrigued us, humans? Do they really exist, what are they really like, has someone already encountered them? Discover multiple cases of demonic encounters. Does true evil really walk the world? Is there really such a thing as demons? While this book makes no claim to prove their existence, it certainly contains some riveting testimony from those who claim to know the answer to both of those questions. It covers such stories as the infamous Son of Sam, the tragic case of Anneliese Michel, the terror of David Glatzel, and the bone-chilling account of Ronald Hunkeler-the real-life inspiration behind the Hollywood classic The Exorcist. These are just a few threads of the complex tapestry of demonic encounters that we have woven. You will find enough tales of demonic activity in this book to make your head spin-but don't let it spin too much, lest you draw the attention of an exorcist yourself!

In this powerful book, the renowned exorcist of Rome tells of his many experiences in his ministry as an exorcist doing battle with Satan to relieve the great suffering of people in the grip of evil. The importance of the ministry to expel demons is clearly seen in the Gospels, from the actions of the Apostles, and from Church history. Fr. Amorth allows the reader to witness the activities of the exorcist, to experience what an exorcist sees and does. He also reveals how little modern science, psychology, and medicine can do to help those under Satan's influence, and that only the power of Christ can release them from this kind of mental, spiritual or physical suffering. An Exorcist Tells His Story has been a European best-seller that has gone through numerous printings and editions. No other book today so thoroughly and concisely discusses the topic of exorcism.

The Babylonian Talmud is full of stories of demonic encounters, and it also includes many laws that attempt to regulate such encounters. In this book, Sara Ronis takes the reader on a journey across the rabbinic canon, exploring how late antique rabbis imagined, feared, and controlled demons. Ronis contextualizes the Talmud's thought within the rich cultural matrix of Sasanian Babylonia, placing rabbinic thinking in conversation with Sumerian, Akkadian, Ugaritic, Syriac Christian, Zoroastrian, and Second Temple Jewish texts about demons to delve into the interactive communal context in which the rabbis created boundaries between the human and the supernatural, and between themselves and other religious communities. Demons in the Details explores the wide range of ways that the rabbis participated in broader discussions about beliefs and practices with their neighbors, out of which they created a profoundly Jewish demonology.

Real-Life Cases of Gut-Wrenching Demon Encounters That'll Shock the Daylights out of You! With the rampant growth and exploding popularity of the occult and satanism in our societies, the spirit world has received more attention than ever before. As scary and creepy as this idea may be, there is also the belief that demonic apparitions will, on occasion, push through to our world and invade not only our homes but also our bodies. Best-Selling author Hannah J. Tidy will introduce horrific stories and experiences of demonic encounters had by normal people who've dared to play with games such as the Ouija Board. A British family went through a string of horrific tribulations that seemed to continuously escalate from bad to worse. The story began to unfold on Christmas Eve 2014, with a man, who attempted to establish contact with the dead through the board game. After the ritual, he believed that evil spirits managed to get through from the other side and take possession of his home. This caused an outburst of paranoia in the man, who then proceeded to commit a despicable act of cruelty against his pet. Prior to this event, the man had never suffered from any mental illness. He drowned the dog in a bathtub, dismembered its body, and attempted to hide the evidence by shoving the remains into a nearby drain. The neighbors noticed something wrong was going on and approach the house to investigate... You won't believe what happens next!

In this finely written study of demonology and Christian spirituality in fourth- and fifth-century Egypt, David Brakke examines how the conception of the monk as a holy and virtuous being was shaped by the combative encounter with demons. Drawing on biographies of exceptional monks, collections of monastic sayings and stories, letters from ascetic teachers to their disciples, sermons, and community rules, Brakke crafts a compelling picture of the embattled religious celibate.
