  • The best podcast I've heard in a long while. I came in because of the eerie stories, I stayed because of the catechism classes.

  • C. Black

    I didn’t really care for the last episode with Christa Black. I’m a Catholic-in fact Exorcist Files was instrumental in leading me back to the faith after 50 years away. I don’t know this lady or her faith, but I didn’t find any of her discussions uplifting or instructional. I was just completely underwhelmed.

  • Overall Excellent

    Up until the most recent podcast, about psychedelics, I have considered this to be an excellent podcast. Given how many great episodes there have been, I can forgive them for releasing the latest one, which is a bit of a disappointment. Obviously, the woman in this long-form interview has much to say and is right to warn against seeking “enlightenment” but her comments about marriage at the end of the podcast demonstrate CLEARLY that she still has not discovered the truth of the gospels. In part... more

  • What

    Loved this podcast with the dramas and learning from Father Martens about the different artifacts etc, and even the episodes about yoga were interesting and the masons. Fell off for a while and listened to the one on psychedelics and GOOD LORD it was painful. She could not stay on track to the point of the host needing to clarify what she was talking about, I wasn’t a fan of the way she spoke about indigenous tribes who practice these ceremonies. Talking about medicine and things of that nature ... more

  • Started out great

    The early reenactment episodes were great! Old radio story style drama/horror story tales. Later on it’s more and more preachy and feels like an advertisement for Catholic recruitment. I would love to hear of exorcisms from other religions too.
