Demonologist Jerry Williams Issues Warning for Paranormal
Investigators

June 24, 2013 –  Examinor.com
 
Jerry Williams is a demonologist. He hosts a weekly show on  “Going Beyond” radio every Saturday night at 11:00 pm Eastern Time that covers  all types of paranormal themes, including demons among us. Jerry has over 1,000  archived podcasts and is driven to help people learn more about the paranormal,  including how to properly protect themselves from various unseen entities that  could mean them harm. 

Jerry, an ordained minister in the New Life Ministry Church,  never planned to become a demonologist but became a believer in demonic  entities through his church work. In 2001, Jerry was asked to visit several  members of his congregation who were experiencing odd events and felt extremely  uncomfortable in their home. This situation involved a couple and their 20 year   old son and the family had requested a much-needed house blessing. One of the
most unusual aspects of this case is that the husband had recently gone blind,  reportedly when he looked into the red eyes of a shadowy figure that had  appeared to him. Medical tests confirmed that his retina had been burned  somehow. The condition is known as “Welder’s Burn.” When a welder looks into  the welding light, it can cause blindness, just as staring into the sun for  long periods of time can also burn the retina. This particular individual never
worked as a welder or stared into the sun for any reason. Jerry knew the family  fairly well, as they had been members of his church for over six years, and he  was confident that they were telling the truth about what was happening to  them.

At that time, Jerry says that he was really not very familiar  with or even interested in the paranormal. However, all that was to change  rapidly as he walked into the home to begin the blessing. As soon as he walked  into the house, he felt as though he were slogging through quicksand. He became  violently ill and the nausea worsened the longer he stayed. He started sweating  profusely. Jerry was determined to complete the blessing, though, so he gathered  his strength and kept asking for divine assistance and protection. He also  recorded what was happening on his cell phone. As he played it back  periodically, he could hear voices taunting  him.

Immediately after completing the blessing, Jerry went to his  neighbor’s house and downloaded the cell phone video onto a tape for  safekeeping. It’s a good thing that he did because the chip in his cell phone  melted completely the next day, cause unknown, thereby destroying the phone’s  contents beyond any chance of  recovery.

Jerry continued to work with the family to take back their home  and the situation improved somewhat. However, they eventually moved from that  location and never experienced any other instances of paranormal activity.  Unfortunately, the husband never completely regained his  sight.
 
After this first case, Jerry decided to learn more about the dark side and he attended a course on demonology given by his church. Over the next  several years, he learned everything he could about the nature of demons and how  to fight them and win. “If people realized what these things are and what they  can do, they’d be much more cautious,” Jerry says. “For the most part, there is  no rhyme or reason as to who and why they attack, although they certainly look  for people to invite them into their  lives.”

Are paranormal investigators in danger?

In addition to the Ouija board and other spirit boards, Jerry  says that EVP recorders, ghost boxes, and simply participating in paranormal  investigation activities can serve as an invitation to unwanted negative  attachments. According to Jerry, “I see all these new groups popping up every  day and they don’t have a clue about what’s really out there. Some even have  kids investigating with them! Investigating paranormal phenomena is definitely  NOT a game and I really worry about these people who don’t understand what  they’re getting themselves into.” The goal of a demonic attack is to wear down  the human host mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually until they are  completely subservient to the demon.

His advice for new and experienced paranormal investigators alike  is to always remember that evil exists and can be a very real part of paranormal  research. “We can’t usually see who or what we’re actually communicating with,” Jerry explains, “so it’s a good idea to take this advice seriously. Would you  let someone you don’t know into your house with your family? We need to keep in  mind that ghosts, demons, astral critters, and more can follow us home from  investigations and we have to take precautions to prevent this from happening.”

Jerry recommends “Ephesians 6” or “Psalms 91” – both should be  repeated three times – as excellent prayers of protection before beginning any  type of psychic or paranormal work, including investigations. He understands that people who belong to other religious/cultural traditions may prefer  different prayers or invocations and advises everyone to “use what you know and  what works for you,” along with tools such as sage, crystals, and sea salt.  Jerry says that paranormal groups should say some type of prayer or invocation  together before starting and also say some sort of closing prayer that includes  something along the lines of “Do not follow me home, in the name of Jesus Christ (or whatever entity is preferred).” He also says that groups should have a  backup plan in place and a demonologist, minister, priest, rabbi, or other  expert on call should things go awry.

“If you encounter a demon accidentally, you have free will and  can choose to leave. However, if you stay, you have essentially invited the  demon into your life. Demons are very patient and can stay dormant for decades  until they find someone who invites them in,” Jerry warns. “Once the demon is  awake and active, then it’s game on for  them.”

Demons often make themselves known by attacking the “weakest  link” in a group of investigators; that is, the person who may be ill, in  turmoil, recently divorced, going through grieving the loss of a loved one, or  experiencing any type of life trauma. Someone under attack can sow discord and  cause team members to argue and turn against one another. The person or persons  under attack can become extremely depressed and sad and start picking up the  emotions of others. They may experience great anxiety and fear. They can even  show increased psychic abilities and seem to be acutely aware of spirits around  them, even if they were never sensitive previously. Teams should be aware that  hearing voices and whispers throughout the location, as well as knocking sounds  (particularly if they come in three’s), could indicate a demonic  presence

However, Jerry believes that investigators can use Ouija boards  and ghost boxes safely and conduct EVP sessions without risking attack by  following a few simple rules: (1) Know and state your intention. Are you doing  this for fun? Are you simply trying to see who you can get? Or, are you doing it  for research or to help a client? Researching and assisting clients seems to  work better than inviting in random entities for no particular reason that may  turn out to be not entirely benign; (2) Use psychic protection such as the  prayers mentioned earlier and other invocations and tools as you prefer; (3) Be  sure to close down the Ouija board when you’re done and ground properly after  EVP sessions and other types of paranormal work. When leaving any of these locations, clearly state that no “hitchhikers” are  allowed.

Ghosts, Demons, and Astral  Critters

On a yearly basis, Jerry deals with approximately 40-50 cases  that he considers truly demonic in nature. Some involve Incubus/Succubus  attacks. An Incubus is a male demon, while a Succubus is female. Each attacks  humans in a sexual manner. He says that the number of cases of all types of  demonic attack, as well as spirit attachments, is increasing as interest in the  paranormal has exploded worldwide. Not only paranormal investigators are  vulnerable. According to Jerry, even casual “ghost tourists” who visit haunted  locations for “fun” could find more than they bargained  for.

One of the ways to combat this problem is to more readily share  information. Jerry is a big fan of more sharing within the paranormal community  in order to benefit all teams and their clients. One of Jerry’s pet peeves is  groups that refuse to share their findings and consider a particular location to be “theirs” and closed to all other investigators. “It’s important to work  together as much as possible to advance knowledge in this field. We can’t  continue to work in a vacuum,” according to Jerry. “It’s simply too  dangerous.”

Jerry is quick to add that true demonic attacks are not common.  Many cases, he explained, involve negative human spirits or what he calls  “astral critters” – that is, what other traditions refer to as elementals and  etheric shells. Elementals are the kingdoms such as fairies and elves. They are  not necessarily evil, but they are mischievous. “They like to mess with people,”  Jerry asserts. He says that paranormal investigators can frequently bring these  beings home with them inadvertently and they can cause serious problems. They  are known for knocking noises and causing objects, such as keys, to disappear.  Jerry recommends using bells to annoy them out of your space, along with white
sage, sea salt, and crystals such as clear quartz, rose quartz, and tiger’s eye.  Etheric shells can be animated by the elementals to imitate loved ones or  spirits that researchers are attempting to contact via the Ouija board or other  means.

 Many cases, Jerry explained, involve people with mental illness.  This brings up the whole chicken/egg debate. Are people with mental illnesses  particularly vulnerable to demons and negative spirit attachments or is their  mental illness caused by such attachments? According to Jerry, a trained  demonologist can tell the difference. “Someone who is possessed acts totally  different from someone with mental illness, although you can have both going on  at the same time,” Jerry says. When deciding whether to take on a case, his  church requires a background check, as well as medical and psychological  evaluations before moving forward.

How to tell the difference between possession and mental illness.

Demonic attacks first manifest in “oppression,” which is definite  as physical, mental, spiritual, and psychological pain and weakness. They often  become depressed and lethargic or may exhibit uncontrollable anger. They become  more and more reluctant to interact with friends and family and may find  themselves isolated and alone. They generally prefer to stay primarily in a  particular area of their home.

As oppression turns into possession, victims can start hearing  voices or seeing ghostly/shadowy figures. Their pupils become extremely dilated.  They may start to exhibit hostility towards religious authorities and towards  relics and other spiritual items. They can speak in unknown languages and  instantly know intimate details of the lives of the people around them. Jerry  says that he has witnessed possessed individuals levitate in mid-air. Some also  exhibit three scratches, a method of mocking the Christian  Trinity.

“Someone who is mentally ill will not levitate, they will not  exhibit ESP, they will not speak in different voices at the same time or in unknown languages,” Jerry explained. “An experienced clergyman/demonologist  will perform many tests to discover the true nature of the problem. Demons  often hide behind mentally ill people because many symptoms can be very similar  and it helps them escape detection and avoid  exorcism.”

In Jerry’s opinion, one of the most realistic movies that he’s  seen that addresses the subject of demonic possession is “The Rite,” starring  Anthony Hopkins. It is the true story of a Catholic priest who reluctantly  embarked on the study of demonology during a summer seminar at the Vatican and  found that it was his true calling. This priest lives in Chicago now and has  been involved in thousands of cases over the years as a researcher/exorcist.

Learn Demonology from an expert.

For any individual investigators or groups who may be  experiencing negative spirit attachments or demonic entities, Jerry recommends  contacting an expert in this particular field without delay. “Don’t be afraid  to admit that you have a problem,” Jerry says. “The longer you delay, the  stronger the demon can become.” He explains that some people suffer with  increasingly severe symptoms for years because they are afraid that no one will  believe what is happening to them and will simply think that they’re “crazy.” 
 
Jerry’s advice on the subject of demonology is to educate  yourself and get the facts. Don’t simply dismiss or laugh at things you have  never witnessed or don’t understand. Read about and research this subject, talk  to experts, maybe even take a course or ask to tag along on a possible  “demonic” case. “Ignoring the subject because it’s uncomfortable won’t make it  go away,” Jerry explains. “In fact, it could make you even more vulnerable to  attack because you don’t know who – or what – you’re truly interacting with  when you do a paranormal investigation for fun or from the viewpoint of a total  skeptic. Skeptics and other non-believers are not immune to the possible  consequences.”

Demonologist, radio show host, and ordained minister Jerry Williams has worked with many paranormal investigators, including TV  celebrities, to help them overcome demonic attacks and remove spirit  attachments.
