Welcome back - to Most Amazing Top 5.
My name is Jack Finch, and today - I’ll be your host as we cover,
5 Teenagers Who Summoned A Demon.
Now - sometimes - some /things/ are just better left alone.
We’ve all heard stories of friends practicing with Ouija boards, maybe they witnessed a
glass fly across the room - but, you know - do you ever /really/ believe them?
A lot of kids these days have a pretty overactive imagination - and it’s easy to get caught
up in the mysticism of the occult.
But in reality - none of them are going to be accidently summoning Belial or the Demogorgon.
Or are they?
Before we begin - make sure to hit that subscribe button down below - leave us a comment of
any creepy Ouija board stories that you’ve had.
Without further adieu - let’s get started, shall we?
Coming in at Number 5 - we have the sinister story of Clara Germana Cele.
In 1906, Clara was a student at St. Michael’s Mission in South Africa.
She was reportedly an orphan of African origin - but had been baptised as an infant - and
at just 16 years old, Clara made a pact with Satan.
She later revealed what she’d done to the overseeing priest, Father Horner Erasmus - but
in an account written by a nun, it was already too late.
Clara was reported to be able to speak in languages that she had no previous knowledge
of.
Witnesses reported that she could speak and understand Polish, German, French - and any
other language that they could throw at her.
It was also reported that she had become clairvoyant - revealing many of her neighbours most intimate
of secrets.
On top of this - she had seemed to have gained an extraordinary strength and a violent temper.
She threw nuns around the room as if they were dolls, and it was reported that her screams
resembled a savage beast - with one nun reported that they sounded like a hellish choir.
Well - the priest’s soon stepped in - and Father Erasmus performed an exorcism on Clara.
It lasted an incredible two days.
At the pinnacle of the ritual, Clara was reported to knock the Bible from the priests hand and
attempt to choke him with his own shawl.
Next up at Number 4 - we have the bizarre story of Ronald Doe.
Now - many people claim that the story of Ronald Doe is the true inspiration for the
classic horror film, The Exorcist.
The story begins in the late 1940s.
Ronald, who was 13 years old at the time, was traumatised by the loss of his beloved
Aunt Harriet.
His aunt was a spiritualist - who had a fascination with the occult - and she’d taught him many
things, including how to properly use a Ouija board.
You know where this is going, right?
Hoping to contact his recently dead aunt, Ronald set about using the Ouija board to
make contact with her.
Well, someone else picked up the call.
In early 1949, Ronald began to experience strange things.
Scratching sounds coming from around the house, water dripping out of the walls - and then
he witnessed his mattress flip itself over.
Scratches began to appear on the boys body with the letter X - which lead priests to
believe that he had been possessed by ten demons.
Pretty unlucky.
After months and months of gruelling exorcisms, Ronald actually survived the ordeal - after
reportedly witnessing a vision of St. Michael defeating Satan’s armies on a great battlefield.
*Good job*
Bringing us in at Number 3 - we have the tale of the Ammons Family.
Now, this story is pretty weird - but whatever the true outcome, it led to one of the strangest
cases ever handled by the U.S Department of Child Services - and many of its events are
detailed in an 800 page report.
It happened.
It’s weird.
Let’s jump in.
In 2014 - mother of three Latoya Ammons, claimed to police officials that her children had
been possessed by demons.
A pretty strong claim for anyone.
But - well - when a social worker and hospital nurse came to check on the children, they
witnessed Latoya’s 9-year-old son walking backwards … up a wall.
That’s not all.
Latoya says that the strange tale began /with flies./
Wherever the children would be, there’d be a swarm of big, ugly flies that followed
them, despite constant cleaning and repellent.
They also witnessed her 12-year-old daughter levitating above her bed - unconscious.
Seeking the aid of a Priest, the children were reportedly violent and aggressive - they
spoke in grave, beast like tones - and the Priest believed that the children had been
taken into possession by a demon named Beelzebub - lord of the flies.
The police officer who had led the case, publicly stated that it was the strangest, most unexplainable
thing that he’d ever seen.
No kidding.
Next up at Number 2 - we have the story of Anna Ecklund.
Now, this insane story of demonic possession reportedly lasted over several decades, and
followed Anna through her teenage years - and most of her adult life.
Born in 1882 in the United States Midwest, Anna had exhibited demonic possession symptoms
since the age of 14.
Raised in a Catholic household, Anna began to show strange signs during her adolescent
years - developing a disgust for holy objects.
It was also reported that she had a physical inability to enter a church.
It is thought that by the time Anna was 26 - she was fully possessed by at least 7 demons.
During a 23 day long exorcism, dozens of people witnessed Anna do some pretty insane stuff
- while she was unconscious, strange voices would talk in unknown languages, she would
often vomit tobacco leaves and foreign spices - and she would verbally assault the people
present with sins that they had committed in childhood.
It is believed that Anna’s first brush with the demonic arts came from her aunt Mina - who
was a reputed local witch, and would supposedly prepare Anna’s food with strange herbs.
The amount of records on Anna Ecklund is insane - and her case is considered by paranormal
scholars as the most abundantly documented case of possession in the 20th century.
And finally - at Number 1 - we have the true story of Estefania Lazaro.
Our number one spot is the real story that inspired the Netflix hit horror film - Veronica.
Have you guys seen it?
It’s pretty good.
Now, Estefania’s brush with demon’s remains to be one of Spain’s most mysterious unsolved
criminal cases.
According to her parents, Estefania had developed a slight interest in the occult, which gradually
led the teenager to perform a séance at school with her friends.
According to a witness, they were attempting to contact the boyfriend of one of the girls
- who had recently died in a motorcycle accident.
And - you guys guessed it - they used a Ouija board.
What happened next was a series of unexplainable events that occurred over a 6 month stretch.
Estefania would descend into a strange version of herself - often having wild seizures and
visions, and she would snap into fits of violent rage - snarling and barking like a beast at
her younger siblings.
After months of torment - she mysteriously passed away in her bedroom.
Her death was unexplained.
Her parents later reported walking past her bedroom at night and seeing strange, evil
looking, shadowy people.
And then - on the evening of November 27th, 1990 - police received a frantic telephone
call from the Lazaro household.
Her parents reported “tall shadow people” that had entered their home - and were terrified
to go back inside.
As police entered the house, they felt the same, eerie presence that had plagued her
parents.
As they entered Estefania’s room - they found a crucifix laying on the middle of the
floor, and a poster that had been shredded by claws.
They witnessed furniture quickly shifting across the room - and doors rapidly slamming.
And on the floor - was a picture of Estefania - that had fallen off the wall and ignited
itself on fire.
Only the photograph was burned - the frame, including the glass - didn’t have a single
scratch on it.
That’s all we’ve got time for today - we hope you’ve enjoyed this video.
