The History of Demons, Part Two: From Scripture to the Silver Screen | Halloween Special How did the spirits of the ancient world become the demons of modern nightmares? In the conclusion of our From The Void Halloween special, we pick up after our exploration of the Book of Enoch and turn to the New Testament, early Christianity, and the centuries of interpretation that followed. From “unclean spirits” and the story of Legion to debates about pagan gods, fallen angels, and Lucifer, we examine how different texts and traditions became woven into a familiar supernatural story. We also explore Revelation’s symbolic, apocalyptic imagery—and why reading it in its historical and literary context matters. Then we follow demons beyond scripture, through demonology, witch trials, literature, and modern horror. How much of what we picture today comes from ancient religious texts, and how much comes from the stories told afterward? In part two: Demons, possession, and exorcism in the New Testament.Legion, Beelzebul, and the language of “unclean spirits.”Early Christian interpretations of pagan gods and demonic powers.How Satan, Lucifer, fallen angels, and demons became connected in later traditions.Revelation’s imagery and the importance of understanding apocalyptic literature.Demonology and witch trials.The influence of Dante, Milton, and the Faust tradition.Modern horror—and Pazuzu’s journey from ancient protective figure to cinematic terror.The beings we call demons have never had one universally agreed-upon history. Their story is also a story about how human beings explain suffering, imagine evil, and give shape to the unknown.

The History of Demons, Part One: Ancient Spirits and the Watchers | Halloween Special Before there was The Exorcist, there was Pazuzu. Before demons became synonymous with fallen angels, ancient cultures told very different stories about the unseen beings surrounding them. In part one of our From The Void Halloween special, we trace the history of demons from ancient Mesopotamia through Greek and Persian traditions and into the religious world of ancient Judaism. Along the way, we encounter protective demons, dangerous spirits, mysterious giants, and angels who cross a forbidden boundary. We also explore the Book of Enoch—a text that helped shape influential ideas about evil spirits, yet was excluded from most Christian biblical canons while remaining scripture in the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo tradition. This isn’t an attempt to settle whether demons exist. It’s an exploration of how people’s understanding of their origins, nature, and purpose has changed across thousands of years. In part one: Mesopotamian spirits and the dangers of applying modern definitions to ancient beliefs.Lamashtu, Pazuzu, and the use of frightening beings for protection.The Greek daimōn and the changing language of the supernatural.Zoroastrian traditions and the complexities of tracing religious influence.Genesis 6, the “sons of God,” and the Nephilim.The Book of Enoch’s Watchers, giants, and explanation for evil spirits.Why Enoch remained scripture in Ethiopian Christianity while most other Christian traditions did not include it in their Bibles.Research resources ORACC — Ancient Mesopotamian Gods and Goddesses.

A brutal murder. A Scotland Yard detective. And a story that would grow more unsettling with every retelling. In the conclusion of our two-part investigation, we return to the killing of Charles Walton beneath England’s Meon Hill. More than eighty years after his death, the murder remains unsolved—but the mystery has become inseparable from tales of witchcraft, rural superstition, and the supernatural. How did a violent crime become known as the “witchcraft murder”? What do the surviving accounts tell us, and how much of the story took shape in the years that followed? As we sort through the investigation and the legends surrounding it, we come back to the question at the heart of the case: Who killed Charles Walton? 🎧 Missed Part One?

The Witchcraft Murder of Charles Walton — Part One On Valentine’s Day, 1945, 74-year-old farmworker Charles Walton left his cottage in the English village of Lower Quinton for a day’s work beneath Meon Hill.

In the spring of 1975, a quiet corner of Wisconsin became the setting for a UFO encounter that would eventually grow into something much stranger. In Part One of UFOs Over Wisconsin, we travel to Elmwood, Wisconsin, and meet George Wheeler—a local police officer who reportedly considered himself a skeptic when it came to UFOs. That changed one April night. While on patrol, Wheeler encountered an enormous orange object in the sky—something unlike any conventional aircraft he knew. What began as a single unexplained sighting would leave Wheeler watching the skies, camera and binoculars close at hand, wondering if whatever he had witnessed might return. But Wheeler wasn't the only one seeing strange things over Wisconsin. In this first installment, we explore the setting surrounding the Elmwood encounters, the reports beginning to emerge from the region, and the first chapter of a case that would eventually become one of Wisconsin's strangest UFO stories. And George Wheeler's most extraordinary encounter was still to come. In Part Two: More sightings. Strange effects on vehicles and electronics. A second encounter involving Wheeler. And the events that would transform a local UFO report into an enduring Wisconsin mystery. From the Void explores the strange, unexplained, and unknown—from UFOs and unsolved mysteries to paranormal encounters and the stories that exist somewhere between fact, folklore, and the void.

The Bermuda Triangle may be the world's most famous region of unexplained disappearances—but few people realize North America has its own. Stretching across the waters of Lake Michigan lies an area where ships have vanished without a trace, aircraft have disappeared from the sky, strange lights have been reported for generations, and even experienced captains have simply… disappeared. In this episode of From the Void, we journey into the chilling legend of the Michigan Triangle. We'll explore the mysterious disappearance of Northwest Airlines Flight 2501, the baffling story of Captain George Donner, ships that sailed into history and never returned, and the growing collection of unexplained sightings that continue to fuel speculation today. Is there something unusual about this stretch of water? Are these tragedies simply the result of Lake Michigan's notoriously unpredictable weather? Or could there be another explanation waiting beneath the surface? Join us as we separate documented history from folklore and investigate one of America's most overlooked mysteries.

The Springfield Three | The House on Delmar StreetOn June 7th, 1992, three women vanished from a quiet home in Springfield without a trace. Their cars remained in the driveway. Their purses sat untouched inside the house. The television was still on. A small dog wandered nervously through the home. And somewhere in the middle of it all… there was reportedly a strange message left on the answering machine. A message that was accidentally erased before investigators ever heard it. More than thirty years later, the disappearance of Sherrill Levitt, Suzie Streeter, and Stacy McCall remains one of the most haunting unsolved mysteries in the Midwest. Tonight, we explore the timeline, the theories, the strange details, and why this case continues to linger in the American imagination decades later.

👁️ Episode Overview What happens when a Pulitzer Prize-winning psychiatrist from Harvard University risks everything to study one of the most controversial phenomena of our time? In this episode, we explore the life and work of John E. Mack—a respected academic who turned his attention to individuals claiming to have experienced alien abductions. Were these encounters psychological? Symbolic? Something else entirely? Or did Dr. Mack uncover something that challenged the boundaries of reality itself? 🛸 The Abduction Research Dr. Mack began interviewing individuals who reported: • Missing time • Encounters with non-human entities • Medical examinations aboard unidentified craft • Recurring, lifelong experiences Unlike many skeptics, Mack approached these cases without immediately dismissing them as delusion. His key findings: • Most experiencers showed no signs of psychosis • Many accounts were remarkably consistent across individuals • Experiences often carried deep emotional and transformative impact 🎧 Listen & Follow If you enjoyed this episode: • Follow From The Void wherever you listen • Share with someone who loves unexplained mysteries • Check out our merch 👕 https://from-the-void.printify.me/ 🔗 Sources & Further Reading • Abduction: Human Encounters with Aliens – John E.

🧭 Episode Summary On November 5, 1975, a group of loggers in the forests of northeastern Arizona witnessed something that would become one of the most famous—and controversial—alien abduction cases in history. A glowing object. A beam of light. And a man—gone. In Part 1 of this two-part series, we step into the dense woods near Snowflake, Arizona, where Travis Walton vanished in front of six eyewitnesses. What followed wasn’t just a missing person case—it became a national media frenzy, a criminal investigation, and a story that still divides skeptics and believers nearly 50 years later.

Whitley Strieber, Communion, and the Question That Won’t Go Away In this episode of From the Void, we examine one of the most famous — and most controversial — alien abduction accounts ever recorded: the experiences of Whitley Strieber. Strieber wasn’t a fringe figure chasing attention. He was a successful horror novelist living in upstate New York when, in the mid-1980s, he began reporting a series of disturbing encounters that would ultimately lead to the publication of Communion — a book that changed the public conversation around alien abduction claims forever. What makes Strieber’s story so enduring isn’t just what he claimed happened — it’s how seriously it was taken by many researchers, therapists, and readers, and how deeply it continues to unsettle even decades later. In this episode, we explore: Who Whitley Strieber was before the abduction claimsThe events that led to the writing of CommunionWhat Strieber reported experiencing — and how those memories emergedWhether there were corroborating sightings or reports in the areaWhy the emotional consistency of those involved complicates easy dismissalAnd how Strieber’s case sits at the crossroads of psychology, trauma, folklore, and the unknown Rather than arguing for a single explanation, this episode asks a more difficult question: What do we do with experiences that feel real to the people who lived them — even when they defy explanation? Who Is Whitley Strieber? Before Communion, Whitley Strieber was best known as a bestselling author of supernatural and horror fiction. His credibility, literary success, and reluctance to frame his experience as entertainment made his story uniquely disruptive. Strieber never claimed certainty about what happened to him. Over time, his explanations evolved — ranging from extraterrestrial encounters to consciousness-based phenomena — but the emotional core of his account remained strikingly consistent. Why This Case Still Matters Strieber’s story sits at the center of a much larger pattern: Thousands of reported abduction experiences worldwideCommon themes across unrelated witnessesThe role of memory, sleep paralysis, hypnosis, and traumaAnd the uneasy overlap between subjective experience and objective reality Whether Communion represents contact, psychological phenomena, or something else entirely, it remains one of the most important primary texts in modern UFO and abduction lore.

A Note on Approach From the Void approaches stories like this with care. We distinguish between: Verifiable factsPersonal testimonyPsychological explanationsCultural and historical context We don’t rush to conclusions — because the most honest answer is sometimes uncertainty.

Episode: The Kahamar-Daban Incident – A Mystery in the Siberian Mountains In August 1993, a group of hikers entered the remote Kahamar-Daban mountain range in southern Siberia. Only one would return alive. What followed was a story that defies easy explanation: sudden illness, violent physical reactions, internal bleeding, and deaths that occurred rapidly—without clear warning and without a confirmed cause. For decades, the incident has existed in the shadows of another infamous Soviet-era mystery, the Dyatlov Pass incident. But the Kahamar-Daban case may be even more disturbing—because we know exactly who survived, and her testimony raises as many questions as it answers. In this episode of From the Void, we walk carefully through what is known, what has been medically documented, and what remains unresolved. In this episode, we explore: Who the hikers were and why they were in the Kahamar-Daban mountainsThe sudden onset of symptoms experienced by multiple group membersEyewitness testimony from the sole survivorAutopsy findings and confirmed medical detailsWhy the deaths occurred so quickly—and so violentlyCompeting explanations, including medical, environmental, and toxicological theoriesWhat makes this case different from (and in some ways more unsettling than) Dyatlov PassWhy no single explanation fully accounts for all known facts Throughout the episode, we separate verifiable evidence from speculation and clearly distinguish between confirmed medical findings and later theories. No paranormal conclusions are drawn—but the mystery remains deeply unsettling. Content Warning This episode includes discussion of sudden illness, physical distress, and death. Listener discretion is advised. Why this case matters The Kahamar-Daban Incident challenges our assumptions about wilderness safety, medical certainty, and how easily tragedies can vanish into obscurity—especially when they occur far from population centers, media attention, or political interest. Whatever happened on that mountainside was localized, fast-moving, and devastating. And more than thirty years later, it remains officially unexplained. 🎙 From the Void is a long-form storytelling podcast exploring strange, unexplained, and unsettling true stories—always grounded in research, historical context, and respect for the facts. 📌 Support the show: go to www.fromthevoidpod.com to follow us on the socials and stay on top of everything we're up to!

In the late 1960s, a small law office in the quiet Bavarian town of Rosenheim became the center of one of the most well-documented—and most controversial—poltergeist cases in modern history. Lights exploded. Phones rang without being connected. Heavy filing cabinets moved on their own. Electrical meters spun wildly, recording surges no one could explain. And unlike many alleged hauntings, this one didn’t stay confined to whispers and rumors—it drew the attention of engineers, physicists, psychologists, police, and courts of law. In this episode of From the Void, we examine what became known as The Rosenheim Haunting: a case investigated by professionals, witnessed by skeptics, and still debated decades later. In this episode, we explore: What first began happening inside the Rosenheim law officeThe bizarre electrical disturbances recorded by utility companiesPhone malfunctions documented by techniciansObjects moving without visible cause in front of witnessesWhy police and engineers ruled out fraud and faulty wiringThe involvement of parapsychologist Hans BenderThe theory of recurrent spontaneous psychokinesis (RSPK)The young employee at the center of the phenomenon—and why that matteredSkeptical explanations, unresolved contradictions, and lingering questions Throughout the episode, we separate documented events from interpretation, clearly distinguishing what was observed, what was measured, and where speculation begins. Content Note This episode discusses psychological stress, unexplained disturbances, and alleged paranormal activity. No graphic content is included. Why the Rosenheim case is different Many haunting stories rely on personal testimony alone. Rosenheim stands apart because: Events were observed by multiple independent witnessesElectrical anomalies were physically recordedAuthorities and technical experts were involvedThe disturbances ceased when a specific individual left the environment Whether interpreted as a genuine paranormal event, a rare psychological phenomenon, or something still not fully understood, the Rosenheim Haunting remains one of the most compelling cases ever placed under professional scrutiny. 🎙 From the Void is a long-form storytelling podcast exploring strange, unexplained, and unsettling true stories—approached with skepticism, historical context, and respect for the facts.
