In a quiet German village in the mid-1800s, a young woman named Gottliebin Dittus began to experience something unholy. It started with whispering in the walls and footsteps in the night—but soon escalated into violent seizures, terrifying visions, and claims of demonic visitations. Witnesses said she spoke in languages she had never learned. Her pastor, Johann Christoph Blumhardt, claimed to confront evil itself in a grueling two-year spiritual battle that would change his life—and hers—forever. Was Gottliebin truly possessed… or caught in a storm of psychological torment, religious hysteria, and deeply rooted fear? This is the true story behind one of the most disturbing exorcisms in European history.?
