Horror Movies

Hi! A friend of mine believes she had a demonic encounter while her husband was watching a horror movie. Can watching horror movies open a door to demons? Should Christians avoid watching them? I know Ryan's a horror fan! Thanks! Love you guys!

Latin phrase

What is the significance of "Marris in vita mea micantibus," and why is it important to you? Does it have any correlation to your work as an exorcist?

Lineage of Masonic Curses

Hi Father, Is there a particular lineage in the family tree that a masonic curse follows, in your experience? I've been doing genealogy research and have actually built out my family tree quite extensively. I was looking at the tree and it struck me just how many lines a curse could possibly travel through. I've heard from others that curses general follow through a paternal line.. but not sure how true that is. Thank you.

Breaking rank.

Father, This question occurred to me recently watching another Hollywood possession movie. if you were to perform an exorcism without bishops approval would that take the teeth out of the ritual? Was there ever a situation in your career where the situation was so dire you had to make a judgement call on the fly and couldn’t get church approval?

Prayers Over Evil Places

I know Fr. mentioned this briefly before but I can’t seem to find it. Could you share a prayer we can say when in the presence of evil places/things such as a psychic shop, occult stores, abortion mills, etc.?
