S2 E17: Spooky Season Special: Talking To Demons

I hate it when my brother Charlie has to go away. My parents constantly try to explain to me how sick he is. That I am lucky for having a brain where all the chemicals flow properly to their destinations like undammed rivers. When I complain about how bored I am without a little brother to play with, they try to make me feel bad by pointing out that his boredom likely far surpasses mine, considering his confine to a dark room in an institution. I always beg for them to give him one last chance. Of course, they did at first. Charlie has been back home several times, each shorter in duration than the last. Every time without fail, it all starts again. The neighborhood cats with gouged out eyes showing up in his toy chest, my dad’s razors found dropped on the baby slide in the park across the street, mom’s vitamins replaced by bits of dishwasher tablets. My parents are hesitant now, using “last chances” sparingly. They say his disorder makes him charming, makes it easy for him to fake normalcy, and to trick the doctors who care for him into thinking he is ready for rehabilitation. That I will just have to put up with my boredom if it means staying safe from him. I hate when Charlie has to go away. I have to presented to be good until he's back.

This if the first installment of our spooky season specials and where better to start than demons and demonic possession? Whatever your beliefs are in demonic possession or demons as a whole you have to admit that  listening to accounts makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end, because weather you believe or not nobody actually truly know what happens after we die. 

While demonic possession remains a belief held by some, it is important to note that in modern times, many cases that were once attributed to possession have been reinterpreted as mental or medical disorders. Regardless of one’s beliefs, the concept of demonic possession continues to be a captivating and unsettling aspect of human culture and mythology, evoking both fascination and fear .

            So without further ado please turn off those lights sit back and relax under the blanker for more dark history
