Diabolical forces are formidable. These forces are eternal, and they exist today. The fairy tale is true. The devil exists. God exists. And for us, as people, our very destiny hinges upon which one we elect to follow.

Free will” is one of the most precious gifts we have. To give it over to peer-pressure, psychics, or a dependency on drugs and alcohol is dangerous and an incredible waste.
Lorraine Warren (Ghost Tracks: Case Files of Ed & Lorraine Warren)
Why do so few ‘scientists’ ever look at the evidence for telepathy, so called? Because they think, as a leading biologist, now dead, once said to me, that even if such a thing were true, scientists ought to band together to keep it suppressed and concealed. It would undo the uniformity of nature and all sorts of other things without which scientists cannot carry on their pursuits. . . .

All things work together for good to them that love God.
Ed Warren (In a Dark Place (Ed & Lorraine Warren, #4))
The Devil hath power to assume a pleasing shape. —William Shakespeare, Hamlet How are you fallen from Heaven, Lucifer! Son of the Dawn! Cut down to the ground! And once you dominated the peoples! Didn’t you say to yourself: I will be as high as Heaven! I will be more exalted than the stars of God! I will, indeed, be the supreme leader! In the privileged places! I will be higher than the Skies! I will be the same as the Most High God! But you shall be brought down to Hell, to the bottom of its pit. And all who see you, will despise you... —Isaiah 14: 12-19
Ed Warren (Satan's Harvest (Ed & Lorraine Warren, #6))
I remember about the inside of the house,” Joel went on, “was that the radio wasn’t playing—it was buzzing, like it was picking up static. Anyway, we got out of the house and decided to run up to the university campus to call somebody. I’ll never forget that. There were dogs outside, and when they saw us running, they started to run with us too. But when they got close, they ran backwards! And the birds—as we ran along, the whole woods were full of screeching birds!

When everything was ready, the group fell silent. Ed and Bishop McKenna stared at each other silently. For Maurice Theriault arid the force that possessed him, the climactic moment had come. By the time it was finished, everyone in the living room of this modest farmhouse would be changed forever, and one person would have come close to death. Ed

However sordid the circumstances, at the center of all demonic incidents is a human being in great trouble,” Lorraine says.

As the psychologist Carl Jung once said, ‘If our civilization were to perish, it would be due more to stupidity than to evil.
Gerald Brittle (The Demonologist: The Extraordinary Career of Ed and Lorraine Warren)
We believe that ghosts draw electromagnetic energy from the plant life, trees, and bushes and that this energy is one of the reasons they often project a brilliant light. Indoors, ghosts draw on human sources for their energy and their glow.
Ed Warren (Graveyard (Ed & Lorraine Warren, #1))
Possession, he matter-of-factly explained, is the fourth stage of demonic activity. First comes encroachment, where a negative spirit is given an opening to a human being, either through voluntary means, such as a satanic ritual, or through involuntary means, such as a curse or the performance of an unholy act. The second stage is infestation, when the demons first haunt a person’s house. The third stage is oppression, when the spirits begin trying to take over the person living in the house. The final stage, after possession, is death.

At the end of Stephen Vincent Benét’s famous short story “The Devil and Daniel Webster,” the Prince of Darkness is forced to promise that he will never again show his face in the state of New Hampshire. It is nowhere recorded that any such promise was made about Massachusetts. The Bay State’s history is rife with documented cases of devil worship, witchcraft, and black magic. The state that is known for producing presidents and scholars is also known for Lizzie Borden, who “took an ax and gave her mother forty whacks/Then when she was good and done/Gave her father forty-one,” and for being the home of Albert DeSalvo, the “Boston Strangler.

The best way to get a handle on the subject would be to ask the experts, but one does not simply walk into a church or synagogue and ask to speak with a demonologist. There are not that many of them; their names are confidential, and they are obliged to report their experiences only to their superiors. Even Ed Warren will not tell all about these horrendous black spirits that come in the night bearing messages and proclamations of blasphemy. When pressed on the matter, in fact, Ed’s reply is: “There are things known to priests and myself that are best left unsaid.” Upon what, then, does Ed Warren base his opinions? Is there proper evidence or corroboration to substantiate his claims? “People who aren’t familiar with the phenomenon sometimes ask me if I’m not involved in a sort of ultrarealistic hallucination, like Don Quixote jousting with windmills. Well, hallucinations are visionary experiences. This, on the other hand, is a phenomenon that hits back. My knowledge of the subject is no different than that of learned clergymen, and they’ll tell you as plainly as I will that this isn’t something to be easily checked off as a bad dream. “I can support everything I say with bona fide evidence,” Ed goes on, “and testimony by credible witnesses and blue-ribbon professionals. There is no conjecture involved here. My statements about the nature of the demonic spirit are based on my own firsthand experiences over thirty years in this work, backed up by the experiences of other recognized demonologists, plus the experiences of the exorcist clergy, plus the testimony of hundreds of witnesses who’ve been these spirits’ victims, plus the full weight of hard physical evidence. Theological dogma about the demonic simply proves consistent with my own findings about these spirits in real life. But let me be more specific. “The inhuman spirit often identifies itself as the devil and then—through physical or psychological means—proves itself to be just that. Again speaking from my own personal experiences, I have been burned by these invisible forces of pandemonium. I have been slashed and cut; these spirits have gouged marks and symbols on my body. I’ve been thrown around the room like a toy. My arms have been twisted up behind me until they’ve ached for a week. I’ve incurred sudden illnesses to knock me out of an investigation. Physicalized monstrosities have manifested before me, threatening death,

Gerald Brittle (The Demonologist)
Às vezes, no início de um caso, não se pode distinguir entre um espírito humano e um espírito inumano negativo. Ambos podem ser extremamente malvados, e às vezes até trabalham juntos. No entanto, apenas um espírito demoníaco tem o poder de provocar fenômenos negativos extraordinários como incêndios, explosões, desmaterialização, teletransporte e levitação de objetos grandes
Gerald Brittle (The Demonologist)
A aparência de um espírito depende inteiramente do modo como ele decide projetar a si mesmo, ou de como vê a si próprio em sua mente. É por isso que contatos com espíritos presos à terra nem sempre são eventos tranquilos, passivos. A tragédia vem em muitas formas, em geral acompanhada de violência, e os últimos pensamentos de um indivíduo tendem a dominar a mente do seu espírito após a morte física. Assim, via de regra, o fantasma se manifestará em um espetáculo grotesco, que representa o modo como ele morreu

Gottmann—this was at the turn of the century— pointed to the young English girl who predicted the exact day World War I would begin—six years before it began. “In effect, then, [Edna Naylor] was a human banshee,” Gottmann wrote, “warning the entire world of impending catastrophe. Alas, nobody paid her the least attention.

In a US context, authors Ed Stetzer and Warren Bird note, Among established Southern Baptist churches, for example, there are 3.4 baptisms per one hundred resident members, but their new churches average 11.7. That’s more than three times more! Other denominations offer similar numbers. It’s not hard to conclude that the launching of more new churches will lead more people to Christ.

One night around 7:30 the phone rang. Now remember, Betty had been in a comatose state for two weeks . . . but here she was on the other end of the line as rational and cheery as she’d been as a healthy young woman. “Hi, Ed, how are you?” And I said, “Who is this?” And she said, “It’s Betty. Betty Chap-man?” Lorraine: “I picked up the other phone when I heard Ed say this because I was shocked. I’d seen Betty only a day ago and she was deep in a coma. Very deep. This couldn’t possibly be her on the phone—and yet it was. She said, ‘I must have been sleeping for the last couple of weeks and now I’m just waking up.

If you disagreed with him politically, he usually implied that you were a pervert or a foreign agent of some kind. Many of his listeners loved to hear the other callers debased. They were the sort of listeners who spent a lot of time in front of their TVs watching professional wrestling.

I did not understand my complex of feeling. Particularly as she was saying, ‘Yes, I’m sorry I ever met you. Ever. If I hadn’t I wouldn’t have to go through this Awfulness, the awfulest part being that I’ll remember you. Always.’ — Robert Penn Warren, from “Goodbye,” Uncollected Poems 1943-1989, The Collected Poems of Robert Penn Warren, ed. John Burt (Louisiana State University Press, 1998)
Robert Penn Warren (The Collected Poems of Robert Penn Warren)
However,” as Ed notes, “apart from any one Scriptural interpretation, vile, inhuman spirits do roam the earth today. And when commanded to speak, the spirits’ reply is a grave one: My name is Legion: We Are One. It is also true that these spirits possess overwhelming powers, and work with a ferocious rage, malice, and spite against mankind. Oddly, the only protection man can summon against these negative forces is mention of the name of God—though more particularly Jesus—and the presentation of blessed objects. Otherwise, nothing will stay these bizarre spirit entities.
