Well informed

This is an interesting book. Well I find the paranormal interesting it is hard to believe in such things unless it has happened to you or you've experienced some type of manifestation... that being said keep an open mind when listening to this book. It is informative providing insight into things not otherwise explainable. Also take it with a grain of salt. Worth the read because it's worth the knowledge. Knowledge is power... I recommend this book to anyone interested in paranormal and/or demonology and how protect themselves from either or both.

Worth Your Time

I read this book years ago and liked it then. I decided to listen to the audio book version and loved it all over again. The warrens lived some interesting lives. I was wanting a few more stories, however those can be found in other books. This is so good because it is Ed and Lorraine telling things from their perspective. Other books are stories presented by facts. I recommend!

Insightful!

The Warrens give an exceptional perspective on an increasing large issue. Haunted people and buildings are never discussed in news media or from the local police and church. Thank goodness the Warrens give solutions.

Truth needs to be spoken

This very informative book brings our reality to the forefront of good vs evil. This couple truly deducted their life to God and helping those who stepped into real life nightmares. This is a very important and enlightening teaching book. Thank you Ed and Loraine for your dedicated life to helping those in great need.

I LOVE THIS BOOK

I have zero complaints about this book. Todd Habercorn does an amazing job narrating.

I've listened to it at least 10 times and I've read it 5 times. just when you think you've heard everything in the book you hear something you missed.

A must for Ed & Lorraine Warren fans.

BUY THIS BOOK!!!!!

Wow!

This felt like an education, although I was terrified many times from the stories of what Ed and Lorraine have experienced. I have lived in a haunted apartment, so I am naturally open to learning more about the supernatural and this book did not disappoint. I have a deep respect for Ed and Lorraine for risking their lives to help people. I recommend this book to brave souls only!

Real or Not great book

I enjoyed the book, my family are mostly religious, I on the other hand have my suspicions but I am open the ideas of the mysteries of this world, regardless assuming it is true, it is very informative.
Let’s you know what to do and what Not to do


Ps I felt like their where things Ed knew but couldn’t or did not want to tell us or would just say that the demon lied but at the end the demon told Ed he already knows but who knows could still be a lie

Better than I expected

I finished a few weeks ago Ghost Hunters by Deborah Blum. I'm a fan of Deborah Blum. I was curious if this book was written in the same style, Of course it isn't.

I did thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. What I found curious was where the Warren's and William James agreed on certain levels about spectral phenomenon. With that said, The Warren's have a much more spiritual outlook into ghostly phenomenon. The Warrens talk about demonization, categorize how it enters your body or takes over your life. That's what made this book fascinating.

Many of the stories they tell are difficult to believe. Yet I do not second guess they're personal experience. If you are interested in reading about the occult, spirits, ghosts, are demonization on a personal level I highly recommend this book.

Entertaining and chilling

I’m certain Demons exists and are capable of physical and mental destruction within human lives. I do believe there are many with the gift of clairvoyance and other supernatural abilities. I also believe the Warrens hold these gifts, but I’m not 100% convinced that the Warrens were/are exactly all of what they say they are. Maybe I’m wrong, I don’t know. I myself have a sense of spirits when they are around. I’ve sensed it since as far back as I remember. It’s just part of who I am. I don’t see them, I just feel them. I don’t know the tricks or trade of communicating with them, but I’ve always known not to interact. Ive never come across any sense of evil spirits, thank goodness. I learned a lot listening in on this publication. The spiritual world is fascinating. As long as the spirits are human and not demonic!
