"Exceptional and timelya must read for all Catholics!" -- Kathleen Beckman, L.H.S. President and Co-founder, Foundation of Prayer for Priests "Personal Endorsement"

"Father Gabriel Amorth with his signature clarity, certainty, and discernment provides the reader with a keen insight into the machinations of the devil." -- Very Reverend Jeffrey S. Grob, J.C.D. Chancellor, Archdiocese of Chicago "Personal Endorsement"

"Fr. Amorth combines Church teaching with practical application and his own rich background in the ministry of exorcism. This is a must-read." -- Abbot Eugene Hayes, O.Praem., J.C.D., S.T.L. "Personal Endorsement"

From the Back Cover

From Fr. Gabriel Amorth, the renowned exorcist in Rome, comes this powerful, eye-opening book on the deadly antics of Satan and his fallen angels, as well as spiritual remedies for each.

These pages provide a basic orientation in the dark phenomenology, succinctly explaining Catholic doctrine on the fallen angels and the innumerable manifestations. Among the many questions Fr. Amorth answers in this book are: Where does the Evil One dwell in the human body? How does the Devil appear and what does he look like? What are the powers that come from Satan? Do the sins of ancestors influence our life? How are spiritual evils contracted? What is the state of souls in purgatory? What is the role of sacramentals in fighting off temptation? When should exorcisms and prayers of healing be performed? What happens during an exorcism? What you should do when a family is being attacked by a demon?

A well-created compendium

Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2016

Verified Purchase

This book is a superb, well-created compendium. I truly enjoyed it and will, from now on, use it as a go-to reference not only because it's so clearly written and laid out but also, and especially because - it was written by Father Amorth, who in my opinion is the greatest exorcist of our times. I don't think the sacramental of exorcism has ever been so carefully documented and the experiences of its servants been so openly available to the public. This is a must read for all men and women of faith, not just Catholics. In our times, it's crucial, that we understand how the enemy acts and we are well-informed of how we can combat its evils... Father Amorth leaves a God-sent legacy, he is a gift of God to His Church.

Powerful Stories of Possession and Hope

Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2016

Verified Purchase

As an author of horror, I am fascinated by demons—especially as portrayed in movies like ‘The Exorcist,’ ‘The Conjuring,’ ‘The Conjuring 2,’ and the more comic ‘Supernatural’ television series. But as a Catholic, I am in truth terrified of the demonic. I believe they not only exist but are striving every day to win over our souls. Strong words? Well, we’re talking about the ultimate battle between Good and Evil, after all.

Fr. Gabriele Amorth, who died in Rome this past September, was an exorcist and author. AN EXORCIST EXPLAINS THE DEMONIC is the first book of his I have read, and I intend to read more. I found his words to be both direct and comforting. Direct, because he doesn’t mince words when it comes to Satan. And comforting because, in the end, he offers hope for those suffering from ailments such as Possession, Vexation, Obsession, and Infestation.

For authors interested in true stories of the paranormal, I can highly recommend this work. Movies and television may exaggerate some of what happens during an exorcism, but apparently, they get a lot of it right. And I believe that if you’re going to write about something unfamiliar, you should research the hell out of it. For believers, Fr. Amorth offers advice on how to keep yourself safe from the forces of Evil. And for nonbelievers, the book is a fascinating read.

Makes you believe in the devil from the sheer wealth of first person experience

Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2018

Verified Purchase

To whom does this book communicate well? To the genuinely interested Theology scholar, check. The usual horror and dark material enthusiast, maybe check, the jury is out on this one. To the thrill seeking reader out for morbid trivia, cross this out. The book is a wonderful compliation of best knowledge and practice on exorcism plus some mythbusting details, but it won’t replace a dark novel, if that is what you are after. Devout Catholics, though, will find good foundation for their conservative beliefs, good reason for them to reflect without the ripe prose of inspirational books, and good stimuli for discourse. You will finish the book, convinced that the devil exists, and we are still in that epic fight between good and evil. And guess who is winning so far?

All Christian's Need to Read

Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2016

Verified Purchase

Father Amorth, God Bless him, who has gone to Glory, makes sense from the often chaotic and wrong information regarding just what Satan can and cannot do to the humans who love God, the humans who do not, and those lukewarm on either side of the battlefield on earth. A must for the Christian who has a calling for the deliverance of souls from evil.

Start by reading the Catechism and/or the Compendium of the Catechism....

Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2016

Verified Purchase

On this and related topics, readers would be best served - especially at the start - by familiarizing themselves with the Catechism and/or the Compendium of the Catechism .

In An Exorcist Explains the Demonic , the late Father Gabriel Amorth warned of the "temptation of sensationalism" (p. 7), echoing Bishop Sam Aquila in his foreword to Father Jose Antonio Fortea's Interview With an Exorcist : "Although all Catholics should have a basic understanding of the reality of evil, we should also avoid being overly preoccupied with the topic of the devil. The Evil One is capable of using such a fascination as a means to ensnare us - with despair, fear, or discouragement" (p. 3). Only God is All Powerful, and He is absolutely victorious over the devil!!! In surrendering to God, who loves each of us without limit, we find absolute fulfillment and happiness. God is forever calling us back to Him, with all our hearts.

As per Father Amorth, "If Mary, who is the Mother of Jesus, is our hope, anyone - anyone who suffers, anyone who is alone, or anyone who feels sad - can look at the Nativity of Jesus and at His Resurrection with a heart full of hope" (p. 9). "I am convinced that a good confession, which is a very powerful sacrament, is much more efficacious than an exorcism, which, as we shall see, is only a sacramental" (p. 87). That is NOT to say that Father Amorth is any way devaluing exorcism!

Those with a knee jerk skepticism about all things Catholic would no doubt be surprised by these words of Father Amorth:
* "When signs appear that could be the result of an evil spell, my first advice, always, is to address the concerns to a psychiatrist" (p.84). And that is NOT to say that Father Amorth is any way being dismissive of spiritual suffering!

Father Amorth delivers a brilliant account of his experience as an Exorcist

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 11, 2016

Verified Purchase

Fabulous book! As always, Father Amorth delivers a brilliant account of his experience as an Exorcist. It is written in a rather deep fashion however, so I would recommend it as a scholarly text as opposed to a casual read. But for those interested in the subject of Demonology and Exorcism, it provides a good narrative, with examples of his own work and experiences.

Inspirational and insightful

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 29, 2017

Verified Purchase

Inspirational and so insightful. But more importantly truthful. Doesn't glamourise evil but shows it for what it truly is, and more importantly shows that God is God, all powerful and that the battle between good and evil is no contest. Thanks and may Fr Gabrielle rest in peace. Amen

An Important book to be taken very seriously

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 13, 2018

Verified Purchase

A very important book, by the famous Italian exorcist. Not at all sensationalist and written completely within the context of Catholic teaching.
A sober and straightforward analysis of the Demonic which we need to be aware but not dwell upon.
For those who don't believe in the Devil perhaps they ought to read this .

Arrived before suggested time of arrival

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 2, 2020

Verified Purchase

This is a fascinating read, even though I am not a catholic. Being involved in deliverance ministry my self there was plenty I could relate to and know that Father Amroth was not making things up. A book that does not dwell on the sensational but balances mental health and the supernatural well.
This book arrived before the time of the arrival date which I love from a bookseller. Plus there was a lovely kind note which was much appreciated during the lockdown and a surprise packet of coffee. Hence a big thumbs up.

If your wanting to know how to protect yourself against the enemy, then you read every word of this book, Know you scripture and learn when to apply it, Amorth teaches how to protect yourself , and how he uses the weapons in the battles he won, Satan feared Him because Amorth knew how to fight spiritually, couldn't put the book down
