Escaping Demonic Infestation
The newest season of the Terra Signals podcast is here! In this first episode, “Escaping Demonic Infestation,” I talk with a haunting survivor about the lingering effects of an intense experience on him and his family.
It is a story that I first wrote about in my book, The Spectrum, in a chapter titled “Becoming Scared and Becoming Scarred.” That story seemed to terrify readers the most from the feedback I received. But hearing first-hand from such a witness takes it to a new level of realism.
For those unfamiliar with the case, here is a quick synopsis…

Moving the Haunted Annabelle Doll
Never, ever move the haunted Annabelle doll out of her glass case. Or, as it is written more explicitly on the sign beneath her: WARNING. POSITIVELY DO NOT OPEN.
This sign echoed the sentiments of the late Ed and Lorraine Warren. They cautioned people never to underestimate the evil power that such an innocent-looking Raggedy Ann doll could wield. There it remained for decades, entombed in its clear coffin and housed within the Warren occult museum after being confiscated from two young nurses in the 1970s. Or at least the story goes.
Even today, some people have reported strange experiences after meeting the doll first-hand.
Scrolling through my YouTube subscriptions, I came across a video courtesy of Tony Spera of the New England Society for Psychic Research (NESPR). It was titled “Moving the Annabelle Doll.”

The Warrens and the Smurl House of Horror
By Maxim W. Furek
Contributor to Normal ParanormalOne of the most horrific cases of purported demonic possession occurred over a 13-year period in West Pittston, Pennsylvania. The horror took root inside a 92-year-old duplex dwelling located at 328-330 Chase Street that belonged to Jack and Janet Smurl and Jack’s parents.
From 1974 to 1987, the Smurls and their four daughters were terrorized by howls and blood-curdling screams, pig grunts, kitchen appliances catching fire, and awful odors. Amorphous black clouds materialized inside the lodging. Janet was dragged out of bed by malevolent forces and Jack was sexually assaulted by a succubus, a demon in female form.

An Interview with the Late Lou Gentile
Though I never knew him personally, I came across a fascinating interview with the late Lou Gentile the other day. It was recorded in 2004 with a host named “James.” The conversation featured Gentile’s views on demonology, poltergeists, and general hauntings.
Gentile was not only an HVAC professional by trade but also an experienced demonologist and radio talk show host by night. Here is his interview, along with some important points I took away from it, after the break…
