Now, inspired by the fictional haunting that brought them together, the friends and former co-stars are examining real-life stories of demonic possession, tracing the phenomenon from its earliest known accounts to its modern-day headlines.

With help from noted experts in witchcraft, shamanism, exorcism, and parapsychology, Katie and Micah explore chilling cases throughout history and across cultures, challenging our understanding of the world—or worlds—around us.

About the Creator and Host

Katie Featherston is best known for playing the lead role in Paramount's 2009 smash hit Paranormal Activity, which earned her the Best Actress award at the 2009 Screamfest Film Festival, and has been ranked among many critics' lists of the "Best Horror Movies" ever made.
Featherston has also appeared in many of the subsequent sequels, and was brought on to appear in multiple episodes of ABC's The River produced by Steven Spielberg.

About the Creator and Host

Micah Sloat is best known for his breakout role in the 2009 surprise smash Paranormal Activity. His performance earned him a Teen Choice Award nomination for Best Horror Film Actor, and he reprised his role in several Paranormal Activity sequels.
Sloat’s interest in the paranormal extends far beyond the screen. He has a broad background in many spiritual traditions, with a focus on Peruvian shamanism, British Traditional Witchcraft, and Hawaiian shamanism. By combining these practices with his undergraduate studies in philosophy and his master’s degree in Transpersonal Psychology, he’s developed his own transformational practice for healing, change, and manifestation called Spirit Work.

Enlightening

I really enjoyed learning of the paranormal experiences on all levels & integrating not only the spiritual side but also the science behind some of the experiences. The hosts were awesome with their non-judgments & their professionalism in a subject that impacts all race, creed & upbringings of the human race. Pretty cool!

Great stories, great hosts!

Really great to hear these actors together again! I will say that Mikah learned nothing from his deadly ego and curiosity in the movie, lol.
It’s funny, as someone who’s studied Demons for years, I often point to P.N. one as one of the best movies illustrating a timeline of possession (minus the ending).
In any case, it was great to hear from so many different viewpoints. But at the end of the day, just say no to messing with the Paranormal. It’s cocky as HELL to think that we monkeys have any way to protect ourselves while doing it.

This show is wild

wow… the stories and accounts this show covers are pretty intense. The heavy sound design scenes of the recreations of the possessions were especially freaky. And as the chapters go by the stories they cover get more and more intense. It’s a pretty eye-opening experience realizing that there’s a lot of dark stuff in the world of the paranormal, and I agree with one of the other reviewers who said we humans really shouldn’t mess with this stuff.

Great escape listen, lots of perspective

I appreciated the hosts approach to incorporate experts from different backgrounds and cover a variety of types of possession. My one pet peeve is that, significant concepts (possession, evil, demon, exorcism, good, how possession happens, consent and who can be possessed) are largely defined within a Judeo-Christian worldview. Such worldview is surely important with this topic, but the definitions will not translate onto the conceptualizations of all belief systems. That said, I learned some things and found the series overall well done and enjoyable.
