Father Michael Birdsong and his son Deacon Josh join JJ yet again to provide an update on a very troubling case that he introduced in the season finale of season 3 on Southern Demonology, that involving a person codenamed Paula. One of the most eerie aspects of this possession is the infected's penchant to carry around her "friends" and actively pray with them. These friends are dolls. Tune in to discover the rest of the details!

Sometimes a horror movie may be middling in overall quality, but it still possesses those breakthrough moments that can continue to live rent free in your head for years or decades after. Today we focus on this snippets of horror and how a few have helped to shape me.

Welcome back to season 2 episode 2 of Bite, the limited run series that reanimates in October to cover all things horror. In this chapter, JJ delves into a recent horror anime, what makes it special (especially given its surface level presentation), and how it explores some of the general perceptions of both yurei (ghosts) and the divine in Japanese culture.

Horror movies are hard enough to get right. However, when the producers focus on only one aspect and leave the rest horribly underdeveloped, then what's made is a gimmick film. Or perhaps a little more elegantly put, a macguffin movie. In this much longer than normal SD Bite!, JJ looks at two very popular horror movies and why they are exactly gimmick films.

Welcome to the final installment of season 3! There's a few treats awaiting! First is the continuation of the interview with the exorcist duo the Birdsongs. They go over the hardest case Father Birdsong has dealt with in his time in the ministry, that of Paula who goes around with a bag of dolls. He also goes into detail of some of the demons that have surfaced during this investigation, one of which is of course our good friend Lilith.

This is then followed up with a review and thoughts on perhaps the most impactful film I have ever seen on the subject of demonic possession, and that is not a claim that I make lightly. Will you also see perhaps a glimmer of what season 4 will bring? Only listening may reveal the truth!

JJ will be the guest on Vestiges after Dark on Tuesday, August 29th at 8PM Eastern/7PM Central. The link is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2P_r0WZ-tM

Welcome to the second to last episode of season 3! In this episode, I not only share a listener submitted story that answers the question of what constitutes a positive paranormal experience much better than I ever could, but we also have a dual guest interview with the Birdsongs, the father and son exorcist duo that have been on more than twenty cases in the last two years alone. Father Birdsong has at least thirty years of experience as an exorcist.

Father Birdsong has also written a book entitled "Becoming a House of Prayer" which you can find at https://a.co/d/d7NYcfC
