The Demonologist reveals the grave religious process behind supernatural events and how it can happen to you. Used as a text in seminaries and classrooms, this is one book you can't put down. Don't miss the Warrens in the new blockbuster movie The Conjuring.. If you think ghosts are only responsible for hauntings, think again

"Great insight to the Warrens" according to bkline. Great insight to the paranormal world by one of the founders of the field. A good introduction to what the lives of the Warrens was like from the beginning of their work. I don't know if I agree with some of the reviews as being "not prepared for this", or being scarred by this "frightening" book. Maybe after watching tons of ghost hunting shows and other shows focusing on demonic oppression and possession I've become somewhat desensitized, but I believe in what the Warrens did. I've seen Lorrai. There is so much to take in from this book! Please know this book is a work of FACT--not fiction.This is not an autobiography of Ed and Lorraine Warren, but it is a book about their cases, their conversations, and an indepth look into their work.As Ed Warren explains,there are supposedly only a handful of real Demonologists that we know of, all Catholic priests, and himself. And this work in demonology entails assisting Catholic priests who have the authority to conduct the Rite of an exorcism.This is year 2010 and unfortunately Ed Warren. jesse76So glad they have begun to republish jesse76450 A little over half way through it. So glad they have begun to republish, I have waited a long time. Great look behind the curtain to the spiritual battles being fought all around us. I would recommend anyone and everyone read this with seriousness and almost as an educational piece. So far only a few sections have really been "scary" but I wouldn't read it alone in the dark either ;) I have a feeling that a LOT was held back and actually reading the details, etc. of the cases would be too intens. 50 said So glad they have begun to republish.
