One of the greatest religious leaders of medieval Europe, Martin Luther, wrote about the revelation given to him from above: “An attack has fallen on the Earth. Appearing in the flesh, terrible demonic beings seduce people, turning their faces away from the Lord, forcing them to intercourse and stealing human seeds to continue their demonic race.
Impassive evidence
Thanks to historical chronicles, evidence of human encounters with demonic entities has been preserved. A significant part of them fell on the XIII-XVIII centuries. In particular, the French chronicles of the times of King Louis XI report the trial of a certain Martha, who lived in the town of Nantes and had a relationship with a demon that deprived her husband of the ability to move. The unfortunate woman assured the priests that she had nothing to do with the appearance of the demon. However, the court sentenced Martha to be burned at the stake.
The Vladimir chronicles of the 15th century mention the witch Martha Poganoy, to whom demons allegedly flew into the hut. With them Martha entered into contact and, giving birth to demons, released them through the chimney. Locals drowned the witch in the river, and burned her house.
In the archives of Tobolsk, there are papers with a record of how in 1837 a demon appeared to the abbot of one of the city's temples. coming out of the fireball. He began to seduce the priest with beautiful witches who jumped out of the same ball. However, the Father Superior with the help of holy water. of prayers and the sign of the cross, he managed to drive the demonic offspring back into the ball, which flew with a whistle into the chimney.

However, such meetings did not always end peacefully. The Nuremberg Chronicle of the late 15th century tells of the disappearance of Gretchen, the daughter of a tanner. One night, the girl disappeared without a trace from her bedroom. When my daughter did not show up for breakfast in the morning, her father went up to the second floor of the house and found her room locked. The servants broke down the door. Gretchen's bedroom was empty. Organized a search for the fugitive, which did not yield any results. And three days later the girl showed up as if nothing had happened. When her parents pestered her with questions about where she disappeared for so many days, Gretchen was surprised. But then she recalled that on the night of her disappearance, she suddenly saw a bright light, and then a lot of terrible faces. Then the girl fell asleep soundly, and when she woke up in her bed, frightened parents came to her …
After some time, Gretchen lost her speech, then her arms and legs were taken away, and soon the unfortunate woman passed away.
Entities from another world often abduct children. So. in the 17th century in Lower Saxony, one of the inhabitants, having laid her first child in a cradle, suddenly saw a tall gray figure in a cloak like wings emerge from the air. The newcomer silently bent over the crib with the baby. The young woman tried to scream, but could not. Soon the room was filled with an acrid fog, into which the winged alien disappeared. When the fog cleared, the hostess saw that the child was not in the crib.
Irkutsk vedomosti wrote about a similar story at the beginning of the 20th century. In the fall of 1903, a young resident of the Siberian village of Vylkovo went to work in the field, taking her five-month-old son with her. After feeding him, she put the baby in a haystack, and she herself joined the reapers. Suddenly, the young mother and some of her fellow villagers saw with horror how a strange creature with the body of a man, wings instead of arms and a huge horned head descended on top of a haystack. The winged demon grabbed the swaddled child in his teeth and silently soared up to the sky …
Summoning demons
In January 1606, in Basel, Switzerland, one of the last trials in the history of the European Inquisition took place, in which a certain Henrietta Bose was accused of summoning demons. As witnesses testified. Henrietta had satanic sabbaths in her home.
And in 1710, in the Russian Kozelsk, the petty bourgeois Matren Prokhorov was tried and sentenced to beheading. This sorceress, stealing babies, went with them to the forest at night, where she sacrificed unfortunate children to Satan, summoning evil spirits to her.
The traditions of calling demons both in Russia and in Western Europe have pagan roots. In different countries, the methods of performing this ritual, passed down by sorcerers from generation to generation, are largely similar. Blood is an integral attribute of a terrible act. Human blood is most pleasing to demonic forces.
Demons of our day
In the XX century, it is increasingly suggested that the cases of the appearance of demons described in various sources are of an alien nature. In 1994, the Penza scientist-enthusiast Igor Grabbe made a report at the congress of ufologists in which he tried to prove that the facts of "demonic contacts" are nothing more than meetings of people with representatives of extraterrestrial intelligence. According to I. Grabbe. This is evidenced by a number of signs that contactees already observe today. In particular, these include: a bright glow preceding the appearance of "demons"; unexplained paralysis affecting people encountering intruders; persistent amnesia, in which the contactee can only remember the experience through hypnosis; cases of abduction of people by aliens and sexual contacts with them. So, in 1993, at the dacha of a 30-year-old resident of Perm, Tamara S.late in the evening a large-headed gray creature appeared. The newcomer suddenly appeared on the veranda of her small house, after which Tamara fell into oblivion for several hours. And soon she discovered the first signs of pregnancy, which was confirmed by a medical examination. However, two and a half months later, during her next visit to the obstetrician-gynecologist, Tamara learned that there was no trace of her mysterious pregnancy …that there was no trace of her mysterious pregnancy …that there was no trace of her mysterious pregnancy …
Until now, it remains a mystery why people are strange creatures from another world. It is obvious, however, that our predecessors, as well as our contemporaries, often came into contact with unknown and mysterious newcomers, whose nature is still incomprehensible to humans.
