Demons.
There are plenty of stories about demons posessing a member of a modern
Christian families. A Haunting and Paranormal Witness prove that.
However nearly all of these seem to come out of a certain context
being that the family especially the heads (or one of them) of the family believe
in the principle of demon existence as a corollary of thrir faith.
This is America, where religion has a gospel intensity.
Where demons are mooted in English history, it also has a strong
religious environment surrounding it.
I'm finding it hard to locate a historical demonic incident outside of that
context. i'm not so much looking for a horror movie depiction of a posession,
but a contextual one that has a credibility of its own apart
from Christian battles of faith between a husband and wife,
in the midst of an escalating demonic development...
I'll keep on looking through my books.
I would wonder if there's a lunar connection here somewhere?
The moon is supposed to operate in the cases of werewolves and vampires,
Is it also associated with demonic lore?
(I may update this blog today, with more info after more perusal)
