Listen with an empty stomach

Narrator did an excellent job. However, I have read well put together works from other well known and respected exorcists from the Vatican like Fr. José Fortea from Spain and Fr. Gabriel Amorth (r.i.p.), chief exorcists at the Vatican, and I was surprised and disappointed at the gruesome level of raunchy description detailing a lot of the exorcisms described within this piece; which at times made you wonder if you had accidently downloaded the wrong book. In addition, the exorcism prayers at the end I found irresponsible. With the
amount of fools today who see Ouija boards as child play, whose to say someone won't misuse these and get themselves in real trouble. If focused would have been given to the process of possession and the how in layman terms of it's liberation and healing and less on the filth it can cause around itself, then these valuable experiences would have been more valuable and tangible, especially in 2023.
