Real Demons

Demons
Demons are as ancient as time itself and are probably the most feared type of entity on earth. With deep roots In religion, folklore, and mythology a demon is a supernatural force that is generally described as a malevolent spirit.

In Christianity demons are generally believed to be fallen angels, formerly of God. The Greek form, translates “devil” in the King James version of the New Testament. Demons are spoken of as spiritual beings (Matt. 8: 16; 10:1; 12:43-45) at enmity with God, and as having a certain power over man (James 2:19; Rev. 16:14). They recognize Jesus Christ as the Son of God (Matt. 8:20; Luke 4:41). They belong to the number of those angels that “kept not their first estate,” “unclean spirits,” “fallen angels,” the angels of the devil (Matt. 25:41; Rev. 12:7-9). They are the “principalities and powers” against which we must “wrestle” (Eph. 6:12). The word demon(s) does not appear in the King James Bible, which uses the word “devils” instead. The New King James Bible uses the word “demon(s)” in 72 verses. Web Bible Encyclopedia

A demon is believed by some to be a force that can be conjured and controlled. Demons are also believed to have the ability to possess or inhabit the body of humans, requiring an exorcism to remove it. A demon or real demons are portrayed differently in different cultures. Some believe demons to be actual physical beings that can take the form of anything, including small children. Others consider the real demons as more of a spiritual force of evil battling for one's soul. Demons have been feared and written about in almost every culture in one form or another for as long as history has been recorded. The two most commonly referred to types of demons are the incubus and succubus.

Incubus Demons
The Incubus is believed to be a demon that takes the form of a male that preys upon women while they sleep. The Incubus demon is believed to seek out women in order to father children. Merlin the magician was said to have been fathered by an Incubus demon. "Relations" with an Incubus demon is believed in mythology to cause sickness or even death.

Succubus Demons
The Succubus demon is the female counterpart to an Incubus. They are believed to prey on men in their sleep, seducing them through their dreams. The succubus is said to feed off of the energy drained from the male victims. Mythology states that a man targeted by a Succubus is often drained to the point of exhaustion or death..



Demonic possession
Demonic possession is a common belief involving demons. Possession involves the act of a demon inhabiting the body of a mortal, living thing. Because Demons are believed by many to be fallen angels and the opposite of all that is good or holy, a priest is usually called upon to perform the ceremony. Skeptics have blamed pre existing mental conditions for reported cases of possession, as opposed to real demons. While some cases have baffled everyone. People who are said to be possessed have been reported speaking in foreign languages, of which they had never even been exposed to. They often become terribly ill while their faces and bodies will sometimes appear to change. Possessed individuals have been known to speak in reverse and injure themselves and others. Other more dramatic and supernatural things have been reported as well. Many people do not realize that the catholic church conducts an exorcism almost daily. What once was only a handful of priests allowed by the church to perform exorcisms had grown to over 350 as of 2007. This is particularly interesting , as the catholic church is known for it's skepticism of such events and is careful to consider such things as real demons or possessions.

Cases of demonic possession have been the inspiration for many Hollywood films. The most famous being "The Exorcist" starring Linda Blair. This was an extremely controversial movie in it's time and still is today.. Below are a few demon videos that allegedly depict actual exorcisms or demonic possession. Warning: Some people may be disturbed by the demon video and possession shown here.
