Description

From ancient Mesopotamian amulets to modern exorcisms and haunted houses, humanity has always asked the same chilling question — Are demons real?

In this in-depth episode of Gnome Talk, we travel through thousands of years of lore, faith, and fear to uncover how the idea of demonic forces shaped our world. Explore how every culture—from the deserts of Babylon to the cathedrals of Europe and the forests of the Americas—has named, battled, and tried to understand the unseen.

We’ll revisit infamous possession cases like Anneliese Michel, The St. Louis Exorcism, and The Conjuring House, and see how religion, psychology, and human experience collide when the air turns wrong. From Catholic exorcisms to Islamic ruqyah, Jewish dybbuk rites to shamanic extractions, discover how people across the globe still fight the dark—and what that reveals about the human spirit.
