Demons in the Dark

Something dark haunts a slow, quiet street in the small town of Folkston, Ga. Most people don’t realize this evil is in their midst, but gunsmith Eric London does. He’s seen the creatures of this street … and he’s felt their touch.

“They are demons,” Eric said. “They are demons who have not found a human host.”

Eric has seen them out of the corner of his eye; black, human figures or, “shadow people,” lurking in his home.

“My former wife, a year before the divorce, was possessed by one of these,” he said. “I was awakened by her jabbing me in the back while she was screaming at me, ‘There is someone in the room.’ I looked up and one of these solid black things was making its way quickly around the foot of our bed in the dim of the night.”

As Eric jumped out of bed he yelled for his wife to turn on the light.

“I thought, at the time, it was a human breaking in. I was going for my handgun,” Eric said. “She turns the light on by her bed, and has a real smart assed tone in her voice I had never heard before, ‘whatca doin’?’”

With the light on, the figure Eric and his wife had seen was gone.

“I looked everywhere,” he said. “I am really creeped out. She even says, ‘He is not in there,’ referring to a closet I was looking in.”

Then Eric’s life changed; the wife he knew no longer existed. Eric is convinced she was possessed by a demon that night.

“We ended up divorced due to her buying an insurance policy, trying to kill me, telling me she never loved me, etc.,” Eric said. “Do you think these ‘shadow people’ are harmless?”

Eric’s ex-wife stopped communicating with him until she came to his house unannounced about a year later.

“‘They’ entered unwelcome in to my home and told me she was coming back,” Eric said, ‘they’ referring to his ex-wife and what Eric calls her demon. “When I said no, ‘it’ came part the way out of her face in a ‘ghost like’ manner. It made one hell of an ugly face and went back into her and she gathered up her purse and left.”

“They” have not been back to Eric’s house, but he has received a few telephone calls from his ex-wife and knows the demon is with her.

“It still has her,” he said. ”I suffer grave guilt that I could not stop it. But I am told by many I could not have anyway, but feelings are hard to deal with.”

Even though his ex-wife is now gone from his life, he’s still seen these demonic “shadow people.”

“I have seen them inside my home,” he said, once while working at his computer. “I slowly moved my eyes to the side, and yes, it was a human shaped solid black figure. It was totally startled to figure out I noticed. It faded away quickly.”

But more horrifying, he’s felt the ones he hasn’t seen.

“I have actually been grabbed on three occasions so far, all within a month,” Eric said. “I feel them move up from behind me, and on the first try I had one grab my bare calves.”

He felt icy fingers and a thumb grip each calf, spreading cold through his legs.

“This angered me that they would rudely touch me,” he said. “I told it to ‘go away’ and it did.”

Other occurrences ended the same; Eric told the entity to leave, and it did. He doesn’t know why these entities have targeted him, but he knows how to make them leave.

“Tell them to leave you alone,” Eric said. “They are not aliens, not time travelers, not pleasant Disney characters. They are (expletive) demons.”

Thankyou so much Eric for sharing that story with him.
I yself am only 15 and have been haunted by such demonic a shadows for over a year now.Its has even attempted to touch me twice.Once whe it stroked my back, secondly when i felt is long nails caressing through my hair.
It all started when i all of a sudden noticed scratches on my arms suddenly appear when i was in the bathroom.After that i began hearing terrifiying screams of something or someone whenever i lay in bed.
For a while i thought i was going crazy.And i couldnt bring myself to tell my mum because shes a sceptic but your article hashelt me understand,Thankyou.

I have been tormented and my family several times by shadow demons. They can imitate loved ones voices as well.

I am Catholic and have read spiritual warfare prayers and books. This one works. I have to thank God for answering my prayers. They are real.

St. Michael the archangel please bind all evil spirits by the precious blood of our lord Jesus Christ and bring them to the foot of the cross in Heaven for our heavenly father to dispose. Fill us with your holy Spirit. Amen.

The binding prayer, holy water and blessed salt will eliminate your problem. Contact the church for an exorcism if it continues.

Hey I wouldnt say all demons are bad. Many are taken to be evil, but really arent. In that case, we wish{Some that is} to coexist with humans. Instead of the hunters and shit.

Unknown said...

I think demons are misunderstood mostly. Some wish to coexist with humans without the always trying to kill them. While granted there are a few to wish to destroy ya. But sometimes it good to know if they are good or bad before you go off and rid them of this world.

Try to live a normal life , dealing with paranormal your entire life.
Is overwhelming.

This didn't happen down Shady Lane in Folkston, did it?

Where is shady lane? I think this town is cursed and condemned. It has a black cloud over this town and I'm not the only one who has said so as I'm told. Some who have been born and raised here do agree. I've met allot of people who have bad intentions...send like a black cloud surrounds them. Oh how I don't like this town. Seems to not want to let anyone go. And many won't.
