Demonic possessions is a term that has always been at the center of science fiction and is also one of those issues which have been subject to a number of bizarre explanations. The religious views in this regard do not happen to be so appealing, especially in terms of the causes of these behavioral abnormalities.

Instances about the demonic possessions have been in all religious books and scriptures including the Bible, The Quran and in other religious literature. Have you even seen someone in the possession of a demon? If so, then you will be better able to understand the cases I would be sharing with you.

5. Roland Doe

Her story had been depicted in the movie “The Exorcist” which was indeed one of the first movies of its kind. Roland Doe is not the real name of the patient, as the church did not considered disclosing her name to be ethical. It all started with Doe using the Ouija Board which his aunt had given to him. It is also said that after the death of his aunt, the boy even used this board to get into contact with his aunt which might have led him towards opening the gates for the demons to invade his body. In the initial phases of the possession he used to hear sounds and voices and later on, the hallucinations became really worse to the level of experiencing somatic sensations. As shown in the movie, the boy was also cured by a catholic priest. When the exorcism had ended, the entire hospital staff reported of smelling a strange odor in the air.
