The Diabolical

This is one of the best in this series that I've seen so far.

In upstate New York a house is haunted by unseen visitors only seen by a mentally handicapped girl. Eventually, the girl's mother begins to believe that these spirits talking to her child are not angels, but demons.

The young mother meets and falls in love with a man who has studied paranormal events and senses when there are spirits around. He's uneasy the moment he steps into the house--but stays with the woman and her children as they attempt to get rid of what appears to be an evil spirit that is working through the girl who has no way of knowing good from bad.

The plot becomes chilling when we know that the demon called Frank is after the girl called Julie. A team of investigators are called in to determine if the occupants have indeed reason to be afraid of living there. It turns out they do--in a gripping scene where one of the investigators gets the scare of her life.

Good plotting, well acted and guaranteed to keep you in a state of high suspense. Chilling stuff, with some very convincing special effects.

I don't understand why people think this is scary!? This one was actually one of the most boring and non scary ones of the ones I have seen: there were no entities represented and I like the best when they have a man in Demon makeup full on with the scales and the gray body paint pointy fingernails and yellow eyes LOL

I had never seen the early episodes because they are not on demand which pretty much has the same dozen episodes the air on repeat on the Travel Channel but I caught this one online. It is a bit slow a bit repetitive and all around boring. This one ghost doesn't scare me I would not have moved if it weren't for the fact that their house is barely inches from the neighbors house what is up with that who is that complacent and that submissive that they pay a lot of money to live in a house with neighbors like in an apartment? Even if you think they're not bad neighbors to become problem Neighbors when you can hear everything when they sneeze talk slam doors or play music or TV over there.

The one thing that was different in the beginning that I liked was the editing had rapid fire images you could barely see what they were showing you and I made for interesting editing that must have taken a lot of work on the part of the editors so kudos to them.

However the early episodes were heavily into Christian religion bringing in the priests who magically speak a few incantations from their magic book and poof! The ghosts are gone, LOL and they got everybody scared of them Ouija boards repeating the lie that they open portals for spirits to come through; this is bull and it needs to stop. Ouija board is just a piece of thick cardboard, a game to play and nothing happens whatsoever of the things this show warns about. People: pretty much everything you know is a Lie, from religion to politics and media, and oftentimes who to tell you is the bad guy is actually the good guy ( from presidents to Lucifer) and they tell you to worship the evil guy under guys that he's the good one and they ship your tax dollars off to the bad guys it is all a ruse. And PS if you went back to your roots and your ancestors' beliefs, you would see how evil the Christians were {and still are} when they destroyed everything in their path and they continue, brainwashed that they are, to Crusade across the globe to brainwash other people! It is a plague of evil, and that is the reason why the world is the way it is nothing to do with Ouija boards.
