Here are two accounts from Catholic readers regarding demonic encounters that they claim to have experienced at some point in their lives.
I received the following accounts:
“When I was 17, it was a really hard time as my family members all had different awful experiences clustered at once and I cried myself to sleep one night. I woke up in the dark to see the silhouette of my mum sitting on the end of my bed in the pitch black. I’ve obviously flipped out. Was she playing and turned the lamp on? She was visibly upset and shaking and said, “I thought you were dead” not “I dreamt” or anything. And I was freaked out, told her I was fine, and sent her back to bed.
The next morning when I woke up and went to the bathroom. There were what can only be described as bloody hoof prints. We have no pets, they weren’t footprints and no one was on their period in my house. It couldn’t have been a stray animal because there was no way of it getting in and I checked CCTV (we only have exterior though) and nothing. They were literal cloven hoofprints and they started on my bathroom tile facing the mirror. They then go out of the bathroom onto the hall carpet and there are only two other doors on that floor on the same left side. The bloody prints go directly towards the far door (my bedroom) like they knew I was there. The prints stop facing my door. My floor is laminate and there was no blood or any print whatsoever within my room. I can only say that whatever negative energy I was putting out that night was like an antenna and something thought it would be able to feast on me. But clearly, God or Jesus Christ or my angel(s) protected me and for that, it genuinely brings tears to my eyes.
I’m a Christian Catholic but the truth of their corruption is so profound it’s only by the devil's work their true exposure has been quelled thus far. My mum however is an atheist but strange how her maternal instincts kicked in because she sensed a danger like never before to her only child. I had at least two other experiences with things that weren’t from this plane/frequency. These ones I actually saw.” RE95

“When I was 10 years old in the 4th grade, I had a horrible encounter of paranormal proportions. I was not on any meds of any kind or any drugs. I was a little kid, and at 3:00 AM the devil came to me. He woke me by levitating as a big black cat outside my window and even though I was sound asleep, he made me aware of his presence. He appeared through my window into my bedroom. I was terrified. This big black cat was lying on top of my chest, staring into my eyes, and even though I had them closed tight, he made me see his eyes right through my eyelids. I could not talk or scream. My older brother was sleeping in his bed in the same room, and was sleeping and not aware of what was happening to me.
The devil hurts you psychologically. He makes you see and hear things. He made the bodies of the dead float around my room. I saw pain and misery and when I saw him, the devil, in his own form, he was dancing on the stove in our kitchen, with the fire on high. My bedroom was right next to the kitchen. I was shown all this horrible stuff and at that very minute, before I saw the devil on the stove, I was able to scream, 'God help me! My brother heard me, flicked the lights on and everything disappeared. When I ran out into the kitchen, the Devil was laughing on the stove, then vanished. I told my parents everything.
We were Roman Catholic. We had our house exorcized and blessed by the church and our own family priest. I talked to my family priest to please ask God to heal my mind and to heal me from those horrific aberrations that transpired in my bedroom when I was 10. After a few months, I was able to sleep back in my own bed. I slept with my parents for months. As I was scared that IT would happen to me again but it never did. Thank you, Lord, I know you are there.' I have seen the other one, the mean nasty red one with horns. He is evil and pissed off. Other than my immediate family, I only told my best friend from the 4th grade and my priest. He asked me 30 years later remember the cat in your room. I sure the heck do. The most important thing I learned from having that experience was, the Devil wants people to think he is not real. LET ME TELL YOU. He is real and terrifying. I grew up in a little town called South Plainfield, New Jersey.” JW
