[QUOTE="LisaTiffany, post: 73198, member: 4328"] There are a lot of things that leave a person open to forms of demonic influence and the first thing I'd say is it doesn't necessarily happen because you stop going to church, or if you didn't have faith in the first place. My friend who did a lot of research for a book on the subject forwarded on a lot of information about the various cases he studied, and of the people he interviewed. They were of all ages from children to adults, of course the main thing they all had in common was the invasion of something dark in their lives. Without going into too much details (I'm terrible for rambling on about demonology) many of the factors that invited something were depression, addiction, abuse, violence and the occult. I have to admit though that the occult is not dangerous but like anything a tool to one person can be a weapon to another if they don't know how to use it properly. Here is the thing, all of those factors are just educated guesses because there are many people who come under demonic influence and never did anything to invite it in. What a demon wants from a person is to spread despair and fear, they feed off of all that negative energy and try and keep the person in that state so they have a constant supply. It often involves a drastic change in personality, and what makes things more difficult is the fact that those changes can be very similar to certain psychological disorders. My main interest is demonology and exorcism but I've read up a lot on mental disorders too so I can have a healthy dose of skepticism when needed and of course understand things from a medical point of view. Unfortunately because so many of the symptoms can be attributed to common psychological disorders even a priest will say the same thing, the old days of blaming everything on evil are long gone (in the Catholic church at least).

When a demonic does attach itself to someone the home can also show signs, common ones are a deep feeling of intimidation in the air, seeing black clouds or apparitions, horrible sickening smells that you can't locate, poltergeist activity, religious items coming under attack.
