You know what?
Come with me.
Yes, ma'am.
Welcome to the Exorcist Files, a cautionary collision with the supernatural, told through the real case files of Exorcist and Priest, Father Carlos Martens, dramatized with 3D binarral audio for your listening enjoyment.
Today, we bring you part two of three of our final demonic dossier for season one.
For our returning listeners, let us reaffirm that the creepy and seemingly realistic spells you hear are entirely fabricated and have zero spiritual
significance. And once again, as a forewarning, this case file involves mature themes and is
definitely not suitable for all audiences. In our previous episode, our favorite trucker, Trent,
ends up in a bizarre and gruesome head-on collision with a horse as he flees a cackling agent of
darkness, ultimately escaping to a Christian college where he recounts his experience to the headmaster
John. Trent had seemingly found the woman of his dreams in the alluring waitress and
Evelyn, and things seemed to be going great for him after their first date when she asked Trent
to stay the night, for safety reasons, of course. Let's dive back in. They had intercourse several
times well into the night. Within 20 minutes after they finished each session, Evelyn began
caressing anew, leading to a new round of sex. Trent had never been with a woman this sensual.
Oh, how's the view from up there?
Just like I envisioned.
Oh, you envisioned it now.
I already told you.
I always end up on top.
Is that what that Russian was about?
Maybe.
You're a real nervous.
As above, so below.
They slept late into the morning.
Upon waking, Evelyn wanted sex again.
A nymphomaniac, he thought, to himself.
I must be dreaming.
Mmm, these eggs.
Good?
Hell yeah.
You were the master of both the chicken and the egg.
And now we know which one came first?
Ah, yes.
So, Trent.
So, Evelyn?
I was thinking maybe you should just move in.
What?
I mean...
Sorry to spring that on you.
I'll bring you to more coffee.
No, no, no.
Don't be sorry.
You just kind of call me off guard.
I mean, you're kidding, right?
No.
Trent had been thinking how wonderful it would be
to live like this every day when she said it.
Moving in would be simple,
as everything he owned was in his rig.
He had spent a fortune to buy the truck,
complete with a bed and bathroom in the cab
so that he could live in him.
He still used his mother's house in Texas
as his mailing address,
but he planned to drive as much as he could
to own a ranch one day.
But as he thought about it,
He was not set on owning a branch, though he was from the South and always thought he would settle there.
If he had Evelyn, he would be happy anywhere, including Washington State.
Evelyn, this is our first date.
Let's get real, though. We've been with each other since the moment you walked into my cafe.
Yeah, but as your customer.
Trentz, look at me and tell me, you don't want to be.
want all of this.
I do, but...
Oh, you do?
I mean, if you're serious...
Oh, I'm serious.
I'll consider your position.
And if you moved in,
you know what position I'd be in.
Damn, woman?
All the time.
I mean,
well, I practically live in a big rig right now,
so this
would be an upgrade.
Look, when you know, you know,
You know?
Yeah.
This just feels right.
And I feel no need to dance around my convictions.
Yeah.
And, honey, life is short.
Shall we not waste what we have right now?
Okay.
Okay.
Is that a yes?
You know what?
That's a hell yes.
Hell yes.
Let's go crazy.
Hell yes.
Here's to crazy.
To a couple of crackpots.
Oh, this really is mad cow banana sandwich looney team's crazy, you know.
Trent was already taking it for granted that Evelyn would be part of his future.
By the late morning, Trent would have to be back onto the road to make his delivery on time,
which was a hall to Memphis.
Before he walked out the door, Evelyn grabbed him.
Just one more time.
I need second breakfast.
I really do have an appetite.
I won't see you until you're back in town next week.
This will help me last until then.
He's for the most important meal of the day.
And it's a sequel.
Once he was in his rig on the highway,
Trent began to relive the last two days mentally.
They were the happiest he ever remembered.
Evelyn was beautiful, loving, financially stable,
and was crazy about him.
Finding a woman like this was the dream he always had.
Thoughts of her continually occupied his mind,
and he wore a constant.
and smile.
Heed thy wife and thy lover.
By blood of babe and trampled trinket.
By blackened honey and crumbled wafer.
Chain this sinner to thy service.
And to my will.
That his body may be thy inverse temple.
That his flesh may be a lantern to burn his spirit.
That its glow may light my path through the kingdom.
At this point, we've established that Evelyn has an enhanced sexual appetite,
and naturally Trent was more than happy to oblige.
And I know, some of you are wondering,
hey, we have two consenting adults simply following their natural carnal impulses with one another.
What's wrong with that?
Well, according to Christian doctrine,
carnal indulgences are far more consequential than just mere physiological acts.
The sexual faculty is the way by which
two people become united.
We're told in Genesis that a man will leave his mother and father and cling to his wife and the two will become one flesh.
In the New Testament that's further expanded where Paul says at one point, hey, when you're with a prostitute,
you've become one flesh with her.
You've bonded yourself at the level of ontology, at the level of being with someone with whom you only intended to have a momentary action.
But guess what? That bond remains long after that sexual act is done.
So I've encountered many cases, for example, in the situation I'm thinking of right now with a particular woman,
there has been a transference of spirits.
So what was in her sexual partner is now in her.
She has surrendered part of her being to this demonic realm without intending it.
Because the sexual faculty is the way by which we bond with another human being.
that's a huge area, especially now in the age of pornography.
And to not acknowledge that, that has spiritual ramifications.
So according to Father, the act of sexual intimacy carries a spiritual significance,
and in some metaphysical way, we are united with whomever we become sexually intimate.
However, the concept made me curious.
Is this explicitly a Christian doctrine?
As it turns out, not in the slightest.
The perspective of sex is more than a physical act, has been a fundamental part of many religious
and spiritual traditions. The Dionysian cults of ancient Greece and various pagan fertility cults
incorporated sexual rights as part of their worship, viewing them as necessary for the fertility
of the earth and life's continuation. In Tantra, both in Hindu and Buddhist traditions,
sex is depicted as a path to spiritual development. And Kundalini Yoga,
another spiritual discipline treats sexual energy as a formidable force capable of facilitating
metaphysical transformation. There is even a school of thought that seeks to harness sexual energy
for deliberate spells and curses, such as in more recent times, prominent figures like
Alistair Crowley and Pascal Beverly Randolph, who propagated practices like sex magic, the utilizing
of sexual energy in an attempt to manifest intentions. The idea behind sex magic was that when
The humans experience peak sexual pleasure, energy is released that can be utilized from
powering spellcasting and curses.
Speaking of spells and curses, Father has no shortage of experience fighting those, which
we will cover in more detail in part three of this case file.
Trent was amazed at how intuitive Evelyn was.
Though he didn't remember telling her, she somehow knew he would be back in Washington next week.
it would be three weeks before he cycled back through Washington.
But instead of driving from Seattle to Wichita,
Trent would be making a pickup in Chicago,
dropping it off in Denver,
then taking the Denver load and hauling it to Tacoma, Washington.
He would then have three days off
that he could spend with Evelyn in Seattle.
When Trent arrived in Seattle,
he headed straight for Evelyn's.
There was an envelope taped to the door marked,
He for you. Keep it.
I'm back.
Hey there.
I'm ready for another.
Trent was in Seattle for three days.
During that time, he and Evelyn had intercourse multiple times per day.
After he got into his rig to depart,
Evelyn walked out of her house with a suitcase in hand.
What is all that for?
I want to come with you.
You what?
I want to come with you.
No, you don't want that.
I'll be on the road for almost three weeks straight.
I know.
Three weeks in this hunk of metal.
Yeah, I took three weeks off of work.
Trust me, I want to come.
Evelyn.
It'll be romantic.
Big Rinks are not romantic.
Besides, this way I'll be with you on your birthday.
And trust me, I don't take care of you on your birthday.
All right.
Come on.
Before we set off on the open road with Trent and his lovely new travel companion,
let's pump the brakes real quick and go to commercial.
We'll be right back.
Amen.
Father Martin's here.

Welcome back to the Exorcist Files.
When we left off, Trent and his relationship with Evelyn was picking up steam.
A lot of steam.
As they set out on the open road, Trent believed that his life goals were finally coming true.
Trent couldn't believe it.
As he sat out on the road, he did so with a companion and experience he never had before.
Having Evelyn meant that he had someone to ride with him and someone to eat with,
and best of all, someone with whom to spend the downtime.
and she would also be with him on his birthday,
which again somehow Evelyn intuitively knew.
Twice, within the first four hours,
Evelyn asked Trent to pull off the road
so that they could be intimate.
Though Trent enjoyed the encounters,
the stops required him to drive longer to keep his schedule.
Anticipating there might be an issue with getting enough sleep at night,
Trent told Evelyn that however frisky they were,
he needed a seven-hour undisturbed hiatus.
us through the night where driving safety would be compromised.
She agreed.
But when night came, he had to keep reminding her.
Warn me out.
It's official.
What about a midnight snack?
Woman, I am spent.
I need sleep.
Oh, come on, baby.
Can't we play again?
Evelyn, I told you, I have to get some sleep.
Trust me, I want to, but...
Trust me.
It'll be quick.
I can't, babe.
I need sleep, or we're going to have serious trouble.
Evelyn, Evelyn, no.
Stop, please. I'm begging you.
Fine.
Whoa. Hey.
Easy now.
You better be interested in the morning.
I just need some rest.
Hey.
Rest up then.
You're getting an early wake-up call.
If Evelyn was ever bored or tired on their journey, she never showed it.
Occasionally she slept, listened to music, or just looked out the window and enjoyed the view of America.
The only edginess she ever showed was when Trent interacted with another feat.
on his journeys, such as with a waitress or a cashier.
Will that be all, sir?
Please don't call me, sir.
I'm feeling old enough as it is.
I'm never feeling.
That'll be 2340.
Where are you off to?
Memphis.
You're gonna have time to see Graceland?
That jungle room is crazy.
You know, I've never stopped to say hello to the king.
Trent, quit taking up the nice lady's time.
Oh, the queen has spoken.
Been spoken. Looks like I gotta be off. You have a great day now. You too, mister. Go to Graceland.
What was that? What do you mean? That cashier was all over you. What? She was just being nice.
Go to Graceland? What is she from the Tourism Bureau? Oh, she worked at a 24-hour food stop called Food Now, trapped behind a counter, trying to sell lottery tickets and cigarettes. I'd want to chat it up to.
You don't see the way women look at you, Trent? But I do. I see it all. You're mine.
Don't you forget it.
How could I forget that?
If a pretty woman walked by at a rest stop,
Evelyn moved into distract mode,
steering Trent's attention away so that he would not notice her.
Her jealousy was the only defect Trent could find in her.
When they were back in Seattle,
Trent bought a used pickup truck
so that he had something to drive besides Evelyn's car when he was home.
What about this one?
What do you mean? It's perfect.
Not for you.
I don't need anything fancy.
This is missing the most important feature.
What is that?
The seats need to go all the way down.
He knew exactly why she wanted that feature.
Is that really worth another two grand?
I'll show you tonight.
Okay, and that is how they should sell cars.
Hey, sir, can we see another one?
By his fifth visit to Seattle, since he and Evelyn had started dating,
Trent was not as enthusiastic about the physical intimacy as he once was.
Not because he did not like sex, it was because there was too much.
Evelyn's appetite was all but insatiable.
Other things that partners did, Evelyn never considered.
With her, everything seemed to start and end with sex.
As gently as he could, Trent brought up his concern with their physical intimacy.
You're saying you don't like it when we make love?
That's not what I'm saying.
Of course I do, but Evelyn, it's too much.
No man has probably ever said what I'm about to say,
but eight times a day is getting a bit rough.
Like, I hurt, girl.
But trends, this is getting painful.
Sex is the total giving of one's self to the other.
It's pure love.
Don't you love me?
Of course, I love you, but there are other ways to show you care,
or frankly spend time.
Are you saying you don't enjoy sex with me?
No, no.
Okay, hear me, Evelyn.
I love it.
Okay, you're amazing, but it's not everything.
Would it kill you to let me take you to a movie or going to walk or something?
You know, stuff that normal couples do?
Evelyn.
Trent waited for a moment before going after her to think of something to say.
In his wildest dreams, he never thought that he would be telling his girlfriend that they were having too much sex.
But here he was doing that very thing, and making it worse, she took it badly.
Trent found Evelyn in the kitchen making dinner.
Hey, look, I'm sorry. Maybe that all came out the wrong way.
I love being intimate with you.
Honey, come with me.
Evelyn took his hand, led him back into the bed.
and began undressing. Two months later, Trent was on the road and he did something he had never done before.
He stopped to refuel and to grab a bite in Hayes, Kansas. Hayes was deliberately off his route, but he wanted to test a theory.
After refueling, Trent slipped into a grocery store to buy drinks and snacks.
Excuse me, miss.
Hi, how may I help you?
I'm looking for a big container of mixed nuts.
Mixed nuts are on aisle 14.
Thank you.
Oh, and do you know where the brown sugar is?
Yes, sir.
Sugar's aisle 5?
Thanks.
And what about light bulbs?
Light bulbs are aisle 12.
Amazing.
And one last item.
What is this a pop quiz?
You better get me an A now.
You already got an A plus.
Do you know where the cat treats are?
Cat Foods aisle 11.
Ah, you miss our time-saving queen.
Say, does Jerry still work here?
Short, stocky build, a bit of a stutter?
Uh, no. I don't know a Jerry.
Right on. Just thought I'd ask.
Someone's calling you.
Yes. Yep.
Thanks again for your help.
Have a nice day, sir.
Jerry didn't exist, but was somebody Trent fabricated in order to prolong the conversation.
Next, Trent went to the deli counter in order to sandwich, making lots of small talk with a lady preparing his order.
After commenting on the weather and asking her how her day was, he asked her to recommend a cheese for the sandwich.
sandwich. He was in luck. She was a lady who loved to chat with customers and who knows her
cheeses. She went down the list and spoke at length about each finally recommending the Dild
Cheddar. It has a wonderful flavor. Everybody loves it. Dill Cheddar it is then.
Sir, your phone has been ringing. Do you need to answer that? No, no, no, no, I'll call back.
Okay. Well, would you like anything else on it? No, thank you. Just cut it in half, please.
You got it.
He thanked her for his sandwich, paid for it, and left.
Trent next went into a steakhouse, but he turned off his cell phone and left it inside the rig before doing so.
He sat at a table away from any window.
Before he gave the waitress's order, he engaged her in small talk about what the specials were and what she recommended from the menu.
As the waitress was bringing him water, the restaurant's telephone rang.
Excuse me, sir. Are you, Trent?
Yes?
You have a call.
Sounds urgent.
Huh?
She seems upset.
Okay.
Trent was alone in a restaurant he had never been to before, in a town he had never stopped at before.
Hello?
Why is your phone turned off?
Evelyn, how do you know where I am?
What do you mean, Trent?
I never told you what route I was going.
Stop changing the subject.
Why is your phone off, Trent?
My phone is off because it was low on bed.
and I figured I didn't need it while having dinner.
Bullshit. Why did you leave it in the rig?
What if I needed to reach you?
There it is, Trent thought to himself.
Evelyn always knows precisely what I'm doing at every moment.
She knows. No one is telling her.
And yet she knows.
Just like she knew what my favorite beer was,
the details of my driving schedule, and when my birthday is.
I was just trying to have a quiet dinner.
It's been a hard day, and I just wanted some me time.
What are you saying to those women?
What women, Evelyn?
Don't love me, Trent.
Very bad.
Now, what did you say to those slutty supermarket bitches
and that wannabe wifey serving you right now?
A chill ran up his spine.
It's as if Evelyn had a magic eye that was monitoring him at every moment.
Our regular listeners will remember that one of the telltale signs of demonic influence
is knowledge of the hidden or the unknown.
And with this supernatural knowledge comes the ability commonly known as clairvoyance,
which is as interesting to learn about as it is to say.
Clairvoyance, from the French for Clear Vision,
is defined as the ability to gain information about an object, person, location,
or physical event through extrasensory perception.
A good example of this can be found in the story of Anna Eklund,
one of the most well-documented cases of possession in the 20th century.
In the account of Anna's possession, a book entitled Be Gone Satan by Carl Vogel,
during her exorcisms, Anna often revealed clairvoyant knowledge
by exposing secret sins from the other participant's childhoods.
Secrets, they kept confidential their whole lives.
Also relevant to this case file, it was Anna's aunt Mina who caused Anna's possession
by placing spells on herbs, which she planted in Anna's food.
Now, lest we think this is an isolated anecdote,
consider an excerpt from Dr. Richard Gallagher,
our esteemed psychiatrist you met in episode six.
In his book, Demonic Fos, Gallagher tells the account
of a satanic priestess he refers to as Julia,
who demonstrated a remarkable type of clairvoyance,
known to paranormal researchers as remote viewing,
where one, through the minds of,
eye, in real time, sees what someone in a completely separate location is perceiving.
In one instance, Julia boasted of her ability to see a colleague of Gallagher's, who was
hundreds of miles away at the time. So Gallagher challenged her, asking what this person was
doing at that very moment. Julia then described his colleague walking on the beach, praying,
wearing khakis, and a windbreaker. Dr. Gallagher called his friend at that exact moment,
asked him where he was and what he was doing.
Sure enough, he was on the beach walking in his khakis and windbreaker, praying.
Julia even got the windbreaker's color right.
On that note, you don't have to be clairvoyant to know it's time we take a quick commercial break.
We'll be right back.
Welcome back to the Exorcist Files.
When we left off, we were breaking down some of the unique abilities that can accompany demonic involvement.
When it comes to these demonically conferred powers, Father Gabriel,
Pellemorth writes in his book, and Exorcist tells his story, quote,
Satan has the authority to give certain powers to his faithful.
It may happen that one person is given the gift of clairvoyance.
Others, simply by sitting in front of a blank piece of paper with a pen in their hands,
are able to write page after page of spontaneous messages.
Others feel they can bi-locate, and that part of them can enter buildings even far away.
End quote.
It must be acknowledged, though, that of course,
Not all supernatural gifts are demonic in origin.
In the Christian narrative, there are many supernatural gifts
granted by God for His purposes and for blessing the body of Christ.
A number of Christian saints were said to be able to see or know things
that were far removed from their immediate sensory perception,
including St. Columba of Iona, St. Padre Pio,
and Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich.
For example, St. Padre Pio was said to have been able to bi-locate
or appear in separate locations at the same time, among many other mystical gifts.
However, due to the deceptive nature of demons,
there are unfortunately countless cases where individuals believed their preternatural faculties
were granted by God when instead the origins were demonic.
Thus identifying the source of these abilities can sometimes be tricky.
Father Amorth had this to say when it comes to discerning these gifts,
quote, some of the wonders that Moses performed at God's command before Pharaoh were mimicked by
the court's magicians. That is why wonders of this kind taken by themselves do not point
to their source. End quote. The point then is that something being supernatural in and of itself
does little to tell us about its nature or origin. The scriptures say that Satan can come disguised
as an angel of light, so we must remain ever vigilant with our discernment.
At the end of the day, if the gift is used to harm others, or someone uses the gift for
either financial gain or social prestige, you can guarantee its origins are demonic.
Now, speaking of using discernment, let's get back to Trent, who just cannot seem to escape
Evelyn's ever watchful eye.
No.
Trenty, now why would you be eating out with other women?
when you have it so good at home.
I don't...
Honey.
Yes.
My love.
Where are you?
Trent was not looking forward to seeing Evelyn.
My poor exhausted, honeybee...
I will see you in a few hours.
I have to go home.
Home right now.
Okay, then.
I'll just cancel your order, sir.
Yikes.
Trent could already anticipate what his stay with her would entail.
He didn't feel like...
like he was Evelyn's boyfriend so much as the man she used to satisfy her sexual appetite,
which knew no limit.
Needs to come home.
There he is.
When Trent arrived at Evelyn's, she was sitting on the couch undressed.
Welcome home.
Kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, save my master.
What is this?
Failed thy blood and seed flow faster.
What is happening, Evelyn?
Subtle form.
and lips so sweet.
Evelin.
Chain thy neck to clove and feet.
What are you doing?
Bear thy body, flesh and bone,
sleep before that universe thrown.
What followed next was something Trent will never forget.
They engaged in a single act of intercourse that lasted hours.
Though he was tired and wanted it to end,
he was somehow unable to stop.
After one hour, he was utterly exhausted, and his body was in pain.
Yet if he tried to force his body to stop, at Evelyn's urging, an inner compulsion forced him to continue.
The pain was now excruciating.
Though Trent had complete control of his mind, he had limited control of his body, and Evelyn refused to let him stop.
Finally, after five hours, Evelyn reached a point of satisfaction and allowed the encounter to cease.
Trent fell onto the bed and lost consciousness.
It's painfully evident to all that Trent has become ensnared in some sort of diabolical curse or power.
Listeners might note Evelyn's use of her voice and words as part of her entrapment.
Father has some sobering thoughts on the power of curses and words.
We have to remember that words have power.
We can pervert God's intention for words.
God gives us tools on this earth for our benefit,
but we can misuse a tool.
We can misuse a knife to bring about evil.
It is possible to do right and wrong.
To choose evil is a real possibility.
It's possible to curse purpose.
perversely. So when somebody curses another and wishes evil upon them, he is inviting the agency
of demons into his relationship with that person. And the demons will gladly respond. It is possible
to formally invoke a curse upon somebody, but even informally, just to say, damn you or damn that person.
That is inviting the agency of demons into reality. That's provoking it. And that can have great
ramifications that you've just willed upon another. Why does God permit demons to gain their
prized in this situation but not in that when seemingly the circumstances were the same?
That's a million dollar question, right? I don't have an answer for that. I don't know the mind of
God. But I do know that the devil is constantly looking for those conditions and trying to
constantly gain territory in his kingdom. Now I know some of you will be cursing us, that's
The time has flown by, and we are forced to leave you with another cliffhanger.
But worry not.
We will bring you the exciting finale to our case and to our inaugural season in our next episode,
which also includes a very special guest who has graciously agreed to share her own
testimony of enduring a curse and her subsequent healing.
So, while we must say our goodbyes now, please keep your Hexpectations high.
