The Exorcist Files

Father Martins walks through what the Masonic initiation oath actually says, explains why those words can effects across generat...

The Exorcist Files has dealt with Ouija boards in several cases, but perhaps none as wild and chilling as "Spiritual Roulette", where a group of friends open a portal to a demonic entity known as Stevie.

When we released Predatory in 2024, it drew a lot of criticism. Why would we include an episode where it didn't end well? The short answer is because it unfortunately proves the rule more than the exception. Many cases do not end well. Sin is intoxicating and hard to give up. For Dylan, he wanted the benefits of God without the relationship, and that wasn't going to work for Father Martins. In thi...

Scripture says the power of life and death is the tongue. Demons lie. Satan is known as the Father of lies. So what does that tell us about the importance of using our speech in honest ways? In a culture that is often marked by how well we communicate, how often do we stop to consider the weight and gravity of what we are saying. Are there areas of our lives creating spiritual vulnerabilities beca...
