We had the opportunity to sit down with academic psychiatrist Dr. Richard Gallagher in September 2018 to talk about his experiences working on demonic oppression and possession cases.
His book 'Demonic Foes: My Twenty-Five Years as a Psychiatrist Investigating Possessions, Diabolic Attacks, and the Paranormal' is now available to BUY HERE (amzn.eu/d/06Dz...) .
The world’s leading psychiatric authority on demonic possession delves into the hidden world of exorcisms and his own transformation from cynic to believer over the course of his twenty-five-year career.
Successful New York psychiatrist Richard Gallagher was skeptical yet intrigued when a hard-nosed, no-nonsense Catholic priest asked him to examine a woman for a possible exorcism. Meeting her, Gallagher was astonished. The woman’s behavior defied logic. In an instant, she could pinpoint a person’s secret weaknesses. She knew how individuals she’d never known had died, including Gallagher’s own mother, who passed away after a lengthy battle with ovarian cancer. She spoke fluently in multiple languages, including Latin-but only when she was in a trance.
This was not psychosis, Gallagher concluded. It was, in his scientific estimation, what could only be describe as paranormal ability. The woman wasn’t mentally disturbed-she was possessed. This remarkable case was the first of many that Gallagher would encounter. Sought after today by leaders of all faiths-ministers, priests, rabbis and imams, Gallagher has spent a quarter-century studying demonic activity and exorcisms throughout history and has witnessed more cases than any other psychiatrist in the world today.
In this eerie and enthralling book, Gallagher chronicles his most famous cases for the first time, including:
• A professional who claimed her spiritualist mother had “assigned” her a spirit who “turned on her.”
• A petite woman-”90 pounds soaking wet”-who threw a 200-pound Lutheran deacon across the room to the horror of onlookers in a church hall;
• And “Julia,” the so-called Satanic queen and self-described witch, who exhibited “the most harrowing” case, a “once-in-a-century” possession.
Going beyond horror movies and novels, Demonic Foes takes you deep into this hidden world, sharing in full details of these true-life tales of demonic possession.

Please give the credit that Malachi Martin deserves for writing the book with the title of Hostage to the Devil ! He was a giant in his field and a genius .
I have Malachi Martin's book Hostage to The Devil. Good book.
@@duv1010 I’ve read it and it’s scary ;) I’m reading his book called The Keys Of This Blood. I really recommend it!
There are some great radio shows with Malachi Martin from the 90s on CZcams..
@@eire3215 His best interviews were with Art Bell and one other Canadian guy , but the audio’s quality is not great.
Malachi Martin was the exorcist in Julia's case.
This is the doctor who was father Martin's go-to psychiatrist for these cases.
Thanks Marty for doing these!
This may sound petty to some but I do take umbrage to the podcast title. It would be nice to give credit to Malachi Martin for his groundbreaking work Hostage to the Devil and his extensive work in the field of exorcism. His work, along with the work of Dr. M. Scott Peck, had a profound effect on my life. As an interesting side note the two men wound up working together, which I was unaware of until much later. So it's safe to say that the topic is deeply personal for me, which is the main reason why the title (without reference to the original work) bothers me. That aside, the interview was interesting.
Exactly!
Yeah. It’s petty maybe you can pay homage on your podcast. God bless Malachi Martin but he wasn’t after the recognition you’re trying to force on his legacy.
Thank you Mr Stalker for understanding that my comment was based on personal considerations, rather than a critique of content. IDK if I conveyed that point effectively. I'm deeply engrossed in the podcast and will continue to support your work!! Much love and Many blessings.
Great guest Marty 🎉
The title of this podcast is a rip off of a book, please change the title
A very sincere sounding man , great interview.
I read this book. Unbelievable…… however I absolutely believe it. God bless.
Intelligent guy, respect.
I would have asked her for the lottery numbers
Do not criticize father Malachi Martin.... please...big turn off
