The Exorcist Files
For the last several years, the Catholic Church has noted an alarming increase in the number of exorcisms performed. And for some of the most disturbing and vicious cases of possession, one priest is often summoned. With almost two decades in ministry, renowned priest Father Carlos Martins has encountered evil in nearly every way imaginable. From Ouija boards and curses to witches and demonic pacts, Father Martins has battled the ancient serpent in many forms. The Exorcist Files are his stories.

Adelaide never joined a lodge. She never took an oath. Her ancestor did — and something attached to that oath found her.
In this rewind episode, Father Carlos Martins and Ryan Bethea open the case file on a woman whose affliction traced directly to ancestral Freemasonry. Father Martins walks through what the Masonic initiation oath actually says, explains why those words can effects across generations, and describes what liber...
What if the most dangerous move the enemy makes against you doesn't feel like an attack at all?

Dan draws on the discernment tradition of Saint Ignatius of Loyola to show how the enemy offers counterfeit comfort at t...

The Exorcist Files has dealt with Ouija boards in several cases, but perhaps none as wild and chilling as "Spiritual Roulette", where a group of friends open a portal to a demonic entity known as Stevie. They tried to quit playing the game, but Stevie was far from game over.

Father Martins was an avowed atheist. God had other plans. Now for the first time, Father Martins opens up about his remarkable conversion story and how God drafted him not just into ministry but into the spiritual war being fought all around us. For some people it's dramatic, for others it is simply a small whisper. We hope this encourages you that God has a plan!

When we released Predatory in 2024, it drew a lot of criticism. Why would we include an episode where it didn't end well? The short answer is because it unfortunately proves the rule more than the exception. Many cases do not end well. Sin is intoxicating and hard to give up. For Dylan, he wanted the benefits of God without the relationship, and that wasn't going to work for Father Martins. In this revisit of the case file, Father ...
Scripture says the power of life and death is the tongue. Demons lie. Satan is known as the Father of lies. So what does that tell us about the importance of using our speech in honest ways? In a culture that is often marked by how well we communicate, how often do we stop to consider the weight and gravity of what we are saying. Are there areas of our lives creating spiritual vulnerabilities because of our "sins of speech?". Fathe...
The first case file of Season 2, "Dynasty of Death", is intense and theologically complex. From the appearance of a strange visitor in the exorcism room to the breaking of a generational curse, this case reminds us that God can show up in the strangest of ways and that we should trust him in all circumstances.

He joins the show today to share his stories.
