The Biblical
Succubus (Lilith): When the
Almighty created the first, solitary man, He said: It is not good for man to be
alone. And He fashioned for man a woman from the earth, like him (Adam), and
called her Lilith. Soon, they began to quarrel with each other. She said to him:
I will not lie underneath, and he said: I will not lie underneath but above, for
you are meant to lie underneath and I to lie above. She said to him: We are both
equal, because we are both created from the earth. But they did not listen to
each other.
When Lilith saw this, she pronounced God's
avowed name and flew into the air. Adam stood in prayer before his Creator and
said: Lord of the World! The woman you have given me has gone away from me.
Immediately, the Almighty sent three angels after her, to bring her back. The
Almighty said to the Angels: If she decides to return, it is good, but if not,
then she must take it upon herself to ensure that a hundred of her children die
each day. They went to her and found her in the middle of the Red Sea. And they
told her the word of God. But she refused to return. They said to her: We must
drown you in the sea. She said: Leave me! I was created for no other purpose
than to harm children, eight days for boys and twenty for girls. When they heard
what she said, they pressed her even more. She said: I swear by the name of the
living God that I, when I see you or your image on an amulet, will have no power
over that particular child. And she took it upon herself to ensure that, every
day, a hundred of her children died. That is why we say that, every day, a
hundred of her demons die. That is why we write the names Senoi, Sansenoi and
Semangloph on an amulet for small children. And when Lilith sees it, she
remembers her promise and the child is saved.

Many Spirit...Spirit Walk-ins
To understand what a "walk-in" is one first
needs to understand that our physical body is not *us*. It is the container for
*us*. Similar to someone driving a car. When we see the driver we understand
that they exist irrespective of whether they have a car, or not. So too with our
bodies. We exist irrespective of whether we have a physical body or not. In
other words we existed as a spirit (soul) before the body we now occupy was
born. When our physical body dies we will continue t...Woman claims demon drove her from home

Anthony North: Occasionally, paranormal literature throws up a case so incredible that we either dismiss it as fantasy, or edge towards the idea that demons and possessions are a reality. The facts are just so fantastic, rational inquiry is often forgotten.But are we right to either dismiss or accept? Or is it possible that rational explanations can be placed upon the subject within an overall cultural explanation of phenomena? I opt for this middle ground. Anna Ecklund: Consider the case of Ann...Lilith
