Supernatural Occurrence Studies Podcast

Let’s end the Halloween season by concluding our expose on the ancient Rite of Exorcism. What do you think about when you hear the words demonic possession and exorcism?  Does your mind automatically conjure those frightening Hollywood-inspired images?  Blasphemous demons, spinning heads, projectile vomit, ultra-violence, and an old priest and a young priest?  For most people, possession and exorcism are nothing more than overused horror movie troupes and cheap popcorn scares.  If that’s the case, and exorcisms aren’t real, why do all major religions have a system of beliefs and practices in place to liberate man from the clutches of demonic possession?  Why does the Vatican require that each diocese worldwide have a specially trained priest ready to fight demons and perform exorcisms whenever the need arises?

In this episode, we talk about cases of actual, validated demonic possession that the afflicted’s local exorcist could not cure.  These cases of possession were so severe that the demon-possessed individual had to be brought to the Pope himself to be cured, and in some cases, even the Pope couldn’t exercise the demons. Information is hard to come by regarding popes performing exorcisms; the Church is incredibly tight-lipped on this topic.  But, we were able to dig up a few tasty stories...

Let’s start the Halloween season by discussing the ancient Rite of Exorcism. 
What do you think about when you hear the words demonic possession and exorcism?  Does your mind automatically conjure those frightening Hollywood-inspired images?  Blasphemous demons, spinning heads, projectile vomit, ultra-violence, and an old priest and a young priest?  For most people, possession and exorcism are nothing more than overused horror movie troupes and cheap popcorn scares.  If that’s the case, and exorcisms aren’t real, why do all major religions have a system of beliefs and practices in place to liberate man from the clutches of demonic possession?  Why does the Vatican require that each diocese worldwide have a specially trained priest ready to fight demons and perform exorcisms whenever the need arises? 

In this episode, we are covering the basics of exorcism: the history of the Rite of Exorcism, the different types of exorcisms, the real, accepted signs of bonified demonic possession, and the different stages of demonic possession.  We’ve tossed in a few extra treats, too. 

Happy Halloween season! 😈

On October 25, 1979, something terrifying happened at the Miami Aerospace Academy.  Some claim it was the largest paranormal event to ever take place in the US.  Cops, firemen, teachers, and students witnessed the frightening events.  To this day, no one knows exactly what happened, only that it did happen.  Was it a well-orchestrated hoax?  Mass possession?  Mass hallucination?  Or, did the Devil himself visit a military academy in South Florida 5-days before Halloween 1979?

Every night, all over the world, hundreds of people dream about the same man. He's known only as "This Man", and all who dream of him describe him the same. His face is round and his chin is boxy. His hair is black and receding. Eyebrows like pitch hover over black eyes that almost look kind. His lips are thin and turned upward in a coy smile. He's oddly familiar, yet a stranger. He looks human, yet he doesn't. No one knows who he is or where he comes from...or what he wants. Have YOU ever dreamed of This Man?

Merry Christmas...Buon Natale...щасливого Різдва...Feliz Navidad...Frohe Weihnachten...Wesołych świąt...Felicem Natalem Christi

Topic starts at: [12:00]

Introducing one of the most infamous serial murder cases in American History. The Long Island Serial Killer may be responsible for murdering at least 18 young women across the US. Victims were found on the south shore of Long Island, in Manorville, NY, Las Vegas, NV, and Atlantic City, NJ, and they all share eerie similarities. The victims were sex workers who advertised their services online, namely on Craig’s List. Most were petite, between 22 to 27-years-old, with hazel or green eyes. Many were found lying face down near a body of water and wrapped in burlap or cloth with their heads facing east. Some were found bound by belts or tape, and when a cause of death could be determined, most were killed by strangulation, while others were horribly dismembered and their body parts scattered. Since the mid-1990s, the Long Island Serial Killer operated undetected, and it wasn’t until 2010, in an accidental twist of fate, that this horrible story was finally exposed. Get ready for one of the most heinous, conspiracy-laden, twisty-turney stories you’ll ever hear.

- Issei Sagawa, also known as the Kobe Cannibal, murdered and cannibalized a classmate in Paris, France in 1981. Not only was Issei Sagawa's crime brutal beyond comprehension, but the fact that he got off with little more than a slap on the wrist, and then became a minor celebrity because of his crimes, makes this story truly unbelievable. Unfortunately, though, this IS a true story. Listener beware. This is a nasty episode.
