WHAT IS BEHIND THE SUPERNATURAL?/ Intrigued by the Supernatural

"Move over, vampires, werewolves, and zombies-demonic possession and exorcism are taking over." -The Wall Street Journal.


WIZARDS young and old, seductive witches, and good-looking vampires-these are just some of the supernatural characters that invaded the book, movie, and video-game industries. What is the appeal?

"Belief in ghosts has soared in recent decades, from on in ten Americans to one in three," writes Sociology professor Claude Fischer. "Young Americans are about twice as likely as old Americans to say they have consulted psychics, believe in ghosts, and believe in haunted houses." 

Not surprisingly, stories about evil spirits inhabiting humans are making a frightening comeback.  "The reborn success of demonic possession in popular culture owes something to the zombie, werewolf, and vampire surge of the past decade," writes Michael Calia in the Wall Street Journal.

One report states that "anywhere from 25 percent to 50 percent of people worldwide believe in ghosts feature prominently in the literature of most cultures." And a survey done in the United States by sociology professors Christopher Bader and Carson Mencken "revealed that a staggering 70 to 80 percent of Americans strongly believe in at least one type of paranormal activity.

Is involvement with spiritism and the paranormal just innocent fun?

Note: No! It is Satan doing more destructive work to get people to believe that crap, in order to keep them from worshiping God. Satan gets the word across to  the ignorant people like writers and producers etc., who come up with all this 
ghosts and paranormal crap and when people this garbage, they invite Satan one way or another into their lives.  This also happens when you associate with people, or are married to people who do not believe in God, you invite all kinds of trouble when you  go along with all that, believe me.  Hard as it is for you to believe,  It is true. This also can happen if you just live with someone who does not believe in God, it will affect the non-believers of ghosts and paranormal activity, which basically the same, because it is all Satan, his demons and their destructive work.  Satan will do anything and make people believe anything he wants,  just to get what he wants out of it-his form of worship.   I am so grateful and blessed that I have God in my life now and never want  to live without him again.    Without Jehovah God, I have nothing.
