    We had the opportunity to sit down with academic psychiatrist Dr. Richard Gallagher in September 2018 to talk about his experiences working on demonic oppression and possession cases.

    His book 'Demonic Foes: My Twenty-Five Years as a Psychiatrist Investigating Possessions, Diabolic Attacks, and the Paranormal' is now available to BUY HERE.

    The world’s leading psychiatric authority on demonic possession delves into the hidden world of exorcisms and his own transformation from cynic to believer over the course of his twenty-five-year career.

    Successful New York psychiatrist Richard Gallagher was skeptical yet intrigued when a hard-nosed, no-nonsense Catholic priest asked him to examine a woman for a possible exorcism. Meeting her, Gallagher was astonished. The woman’s behavior defied logic. In an instant, she could pinpoint a person’s secret weaknesses. She knew how individuals she’d never known had died, including Gallagher’s own mother, who passed away after a lengthy battle with ovarian cancer. She spoke fluently in multiple languages, including Latin—but only when she was in a trance.

    This was not psychosis, Gallagher concluded. It was, in his scientific estimation, what could only be describe as paranormal ability. The woman wasn’t mentally disturbed—she was possessed. This remarkable case was the first of many that Gallagher would encounter. Sought after today by leaders of all faiths—ministers, priests, rabbis and imams, Gallagher has spent a quarter-century studying demonic activity and exorcisms throughout history and has witnessed more cases than any other psychiatrist in the world today.

    In this eerie and enthralling book, Gallagher chronicles his most famous cases for the first time, including:

    A professional who claimed her spiritualist mother had “assigned” her a spirit who “turned on her.”A petite woman—”90 pounds soaking wet”—who threw a 200-pound Lutheran deacon across the room to the horror of onlookers in a church hall;And “Julia,” the so-called Satanic queen and self-described witch, who exhibited “the most harrowing” case, a “once-in-a-century” possession.

    Going beyond horror movies and novels, Demonic Foes takes you deep into this hidden world, sharing in full details of these true-life tales of demonic possession.

    Marty spoke to Chris DeFlorio, the author of the book 'Called Into Darkness'. When Chris, an NYPD Cop, and Harmony, an FDNY EMT, first met at a Police precinct in New York City, they were never expecting to be prepared for an even bigger purpose. This TRUE STORY of two lost souls, living separate lives and searching for meaning, are brought together, healed, and restored by God to be sent out to battle the Supernatural. They will need all the skills from their worldly jobs as first responders combined with faith as they fight against God's ancient foe, the Devil himself, who is terrorizing innocent families. You will see the Sovereign Plan of God, step by step, in both of their lives as they were equipped to help others in this physical and spiritual world. It is a story of personal healing through the love of God and passing the gift forward to the hurting as they enter home after home, bringing the same peace of God to others.

    The Ministry of Spiritual Warfare was just the next step for this couple as the reader experiences what it was like for them in the famous news case that rocked Connecticut in 2021.

    Chris DeFlorio was a Nationally Certified Paramedic during the 90s while running an ambulance in the busy South Bronx for the New York City Fire Department. As he moved into the New York City Police Department in 2003, he spent years in the "Plain Clothes Unit" as an undercover cop in dangerous Harlem, where he was able to study the crime habits of the city's worst and most violent offenders. He is a Christian who has worked in ministry for over 15 years, ranging from evangelism and caring for the homeless throughout New York to missionary work in Africa. Chris has been featured in an international Documentary called "It's Coming. He has also been interviewed in dozens of articles ranging from hauntings to Serial Killers, Ted Bundy, Jefferey Dahmer, and Lori Vallow.

    Now, along with his wife, he combines his first responder skills acquired over 25 years of experience and faith as they travel the country investigating and helping families with demonic issues infesting their lives.

    We had regular visitor Robert Marro on the show talking about his ambitions to write a new book on his close friend Malachi Martin. Here is what he had to say:

    "I was a very close friend of Malachi for the last decade of his life until his untimely death on July 27, 1999. Countless people have told me that since I was Malachi's confidante who knew and assisted Malachi Martin daily, I'm obligated to tell the story of this holy priest I was privileged to call my best friend and spiritual advisor.

    I'm compelled to set the record straight due to widespread misinformation about him on the Internet, a vicious mixture of gossip, rumours, lies, and outright slander. The book's working title is "MALACHI MARTIN - A Holy Priest Against the Approaching Scream of the ANCIENT BEAST." Strictly speaking, it will be a non-fiction biographic memoir that won't shy away from addressing the more controversial issues that continue to plague Malachi Martin's legacy to this day unfairly."

    You can donate to the creation of this book HERE.

    Having chatted with Emma in a previous episode, we decided to take her up on her invitation to the Rectory, and we thought we'd bring you along.

    PODCAST HERE

    Built in 1775 as a Church of Ireland rectory, Sharon Rectory was the site of a gruesome double murder in 1797 when the United Irishmen ruthlessly murdered the Rev William Hamilton and his wife Sara Waller on the eve of the 1798 Rebellion. The ancient mansion is said to be haunted by lost souls and an evil spirit that gives the house a demonic presence. Sharon Rectory fell into disrepair following years of disuse but was bought by Vincent and Lisa Tully in the 1990s. The couple renovated the dilapidated property and moved in with their two daughters.

    Thank you to Lisa, Emma and Victoria for their hospitality.

    In this episode, Marty talks to Duncan O'Finioan about his experience in the highly classified MK-ULTRA programme named PROJECT TALENT. From a thousand others trained as child warriors in 1966, he is now, he believes, only one of a handful left alive to tell the story.

    Duncan has now set up P.T.M. Practical-Tactical-Magical, a husband-and-wife team that deals with all things paranormal and energy-related, including energy clearings on people, houses, property, and sometimes even animals.

    Marty talks to Emma Louise Tully about her book, The Haunting of Sharon Rectory, which is based on the author's 22-year diary of her paranormal experiences since moving into the property in the 1990s.

    Emma shares intriguing insights into the eerie occurrences and the network of psychic supporters they have called on to help with their unconventional plight. She explains why this close-knit family is unprepared to leave their beautiful home.

    Sharon Rectory is haunted by the lost souls of its former residents, who aren't prepared to go quietly either. 'The Blue Lady', one such ghost, is thought to be the murder victim of the original owner, Sara Waller. A dark, evil spirit also occupies the rectory. This powerful demonic presence plagues the family and wreaks havoc as its identity is gradually uncovered. Part historical/part modern-day true ghost story, the author writes of her family's terror and their physical and mental torment as they try to maintain some semblance of everyday life at Sharon Rectory. Not for the faint of heart, this absolute and honest memoir of life among the paranormal will have you completely hooked from the very beginning.

    In this episode, Marty talks to Robert Marro about his thoughts on Malachi Martin's controversial Windswept House: A Vatican Novel (1996).

    Windswept House describes a satanic ritual - the enthronement of Lucifer - taking place at Saint-Paul's Chapel inside Vatican City on June 29, 1963. The book shows a scary depiction of high-ranking churchmen, cardinals, archbishops, and prelates of the Roman Curia taking oaths signed with their blood and plotting to destroy the Church from within. It tells the story of an international, organized attempt by Vatican insiders and secular internationalists to force a pope of the Catholic Church to abdicate so that a successor who will fundamentally change orthodox faith and establish a New World Order may be chosen.
