The following cases point to this as being a reality. Here are 5 Terrifying and Creepy Cases of Demonic Possession. 5. Anna EcklundAnna Ecklund, also known as Emma Schmidt according to official Vatican records, was a devout Catholic girl living in Wisconsin in 1882. Although very little is known about her early life, for most of her childhood she was considered to be like any other girls her own age. However once she turned 8 years, a steady and noticeable change began to emerge in her personality. Despite growing up a devout Catholic, she suddenly showed signs of aversion to the church and pretty much anything religious or holy. She had begun hating the priesthood and showing an unhealthy fascination and interest in perverse sexual acts. By the time she turned 14, there were clear signs that she was demonically possessed.4. Clara Germana CeleWhile serving in the Marianhill Mission School of South Africa in 1906, Father Erasmus Horner heard a strange confession from a young, 16-year old girl who told him that she had made a pact with the devil. The priest inquired with the nuns at the school who said that it was Clara Germana Cele, a young orphaned girl who seemed ordinary but sometimes unpredictable. She had been there since she was the age of four, her parents tragically died while she just a baby.3. Father Marian Rajchel It's one thing to be possessed and perform an exorcism, but to be haunted by demons because you failed the exorcism is a whole other horror. That's what Father Marian Rajchel is suffering through right now. The Polish priest carried out an exorcism in the city of Jaroslaw locate to the south east of Poland. However, he didn't succeed and Soon after he performed the exorcism, he started receiving harassing messages through text messages. Some of it read:“She will not come out of this hell. She’s mine. Anyone who prays for her will die.”2. Julia A recent case of possession that happened in 2008, this is The case of a patient named "Julia". It’s especially unique because it was chronicled by a leading associate professor of psychiatry, Dr. Richard E. Gallagher from New York Medical College and published in an issue of the New Oxford Review. Even though medical professionals rarely diagnose a patient with demonic possession, Dr. Gallagher did just that. After examining a patient he calls "Julia," he discovered no know mental illness in her whatsoever. However, the symptoms that she exhibited were extremely troubling.1. Pat ReadingThe case of Pat Reading is one of the most terrifying and baffling accounts of demonic possession ever recorded. What makes it so different is that unlike most sufferers, Pat was an ordinary woman without religious affiliation. She was a mother and lived a quiet life in Litchfield, Connecticut in the 1980s. She did not do drugs or drink alcohol and had no history with the occult or any Satanic association at all. Despite this however, she was attacked continuously, first experiecing various strange incidents inside her home. She often felt as if she was being followed inside and would hear loud bangs all around the house. Eventually things began to grow violent. Large furniture would be moved and overturned and Unseen forces would hit her resulting in to bruises and scratches on her body. 5 Terrifying and Creepy Cases of Demonic PossessionSupport the show Learn more about your ad choices.
