I just finished reading Malachi Martins book titled " Five Exorcisms of Contemporary Americans". The book is not fiction mind you, but interviews with the exorcists, victims, relatives and witnesses (co workers, friends, etc. Of victim). Malachi Martin was a priest who had access to these files before he died and wrote some other controversial books as well which I intend to read, one that apparently witnesses a black mass taking place inside the Vatican itself.
In order to explain what I'm looking for from other people, I must first tell a quick story.
My one time friend moved into an apartment 7 or 8 years ago, well before I believed in god at all. I was in my early 20s and he asked me to help him move. During the move, I was moving a box inside and at the bottom of the steps I heard a voice whisper my name "Matthew." I turned around and nothing was there. I went outside to confront my 2 friends thinking they were playing a joke of some kind but they genuinely looked at me with pure obliviousness. They were both stuck in the back of the moving truck trying to move a couch out. I dismissed it as nothing more than me hearing things.
A week later my friend had his official house warming party. When I arrived he was drinking and handed me a beer, and after some small talk he joked around with me and was like, "well mt wife thinks the house is haunted". We laughed at it a bit and he told me that their dog would repeatedly go to the bottom of the steps and just stare at the top to the second floor, whimper for minutes straight until he went into a corner and hid.
Later guests arrived including his parents in law which were pretty nice people. I was talking with his wife's dad and told him about hearing someone whisper my name when I helped move in, but I didn't tell him where it happened. Later in the day there were about 20 people there and many were a little drunk, but still in good humor. I was passing the same exact spot at the bottom of the stairs when I heard my name whispered again. This time I turned back wide eyed towards the dining room and saw the man I told smiling at me. He didn't say anything, just smiled really strangely...and then I sort of laughed nervously and walked away.
That night the older people had left and we were drinking a little more. My friend was pretty drunk at that point. I told him I was gonna go to sleep and he just looked at me with this half grin and didn't say a word. After I was laying down I just started hearing stuff breaking downstairs and yelling. My friend was smashing all the house warming gifts he received, and many of the guests were literally crying. My friends and I tried to talk him down but he was literally speaking nonsense...not even a language just broken English and weird laughing. Then he ran outside and disappeared until we found him in the neighbors yard by a shrub. He was completely coherent and acted like there was nothing out of the ordinary. We were puzzled and confused, so we walked back inside with him. 5 minutes later, it happened again even worse. We literally had 3 of us on the ground physically holding him down and he was still managing to get away from us a bit despite only being 5 foot 9 170 lbs. He was truly growling at that point and had spit all over himself. He finally agreed in English that he was done and going to bed. When we let him back up, he stood in the corner, ripped off his crucifx necklace and held it in front of him and just started laughing for like 30 seconds and then went to sleep. He didn't remember a thing the following day.
I looked back at that a couple years later once I was a little more smart and saw it for what it was.
I'm wondering if anyone else has seen something similar to any extent, and also am theorizing that over consumption of alcohol opens you up to the influence of evil spirits because you leave an easy access without guarding yourself. Lastly, I have recently watched a couple YouTube videos trying to examine possession and saw the Beyonce Superbowl halftime video along with some of those people getting "reptilian" eyes. What are your thoughts on these things, whether they are camera malfunctions, tampered video, or genuine cases to be considered more sinister. Note: some of these performers have enormous hints of satanic influence throughout their material also. Do you see these as coincidences?
