Is there such a thing as “perfect possession”?
Let’s first define that term.
Regular possession, as those who are moviegoers know, involves adults or kids who traipse along in normality until they get spells during which the devil or one of his charges takes control of the person, causing a radical shift in personality, odd vocality (growling, screeches), and in extreme cases, objects to be knocked over or thrown around and the afflicted–in the rarest instances of all–to levitate or try to injure or kill (including themselves).
These states could be called “periodic possession” or a similar term.
Perfect possession?
That’s when the devil is in such control that an evil spirit is present 24/7 and can hardly be differentiated from the person’s original personality.
Patrick R. Bell has written a bold and highly detailed book about such cases, and it includes examples such as Jeffrey Epstein (the rich sex trafficker to the elite) and Jeff Dahmer (the serial killer in Milwaukee).
But for the most consequential, and documented, example, he delves into that most notorious of all “perfect possessions,” Adolf Hitler.
And no matter how much you have read about him and even his occultism, there is newness–additional details–in this well-wrought book.
Always a point of remembrance: the future leader of Nazi Germany was born Catholic— to a “devout” mother –though it seems young Hitler just about always had an aversion and outright antagonism to the Faith (for example, when he was dragged for Confirmation) and like others who are perfectly possessed, make an act of will: “sold his soul.”
In Hitler’s case it came at a museum in Vienna, where he encountered (see The Final Hour) a spirit he referred to as “Superman.”
Hatred: this is also a marker. And Hitler seemed to hate everyone.
He was exceedingly high-strung, violent. Even those with no spiritual training found him “almost sinister” at many junctures, according to one of Hitler’s very few friends, August Kubizek.
No sense of humor.
Obstinacy (another marker of dark influences).
Most peculiar—and often a hallmark of evil—were his eyes.
In cases of evil, they can truly be a window of the soul.
They often have a glazed, luminous, or pitch-dark quality to them.
Exorcists have often described eyes as going totally black at the height of possession (we have seen a photograph of this).
Hitler’s case, Bell points out, was again a classic example.
As Kubizek wrote: “For in this countenance the eyes were so outstanding that one didn’t notice anything else.
“Never in my life have I seen any other person whose appearance–how shall I put it–was so completely dominated by the eyes.
“It was uncanny how these eyes could change their expression, especially when Adolf was speaking. When he first came to our house and I introduced him to my mother, she said to me in the evening, ‘What eyes your friend has!’ And I remember distinctly that there was more fear than admiration in her voice.”
There were other features. Hitler would occasionally turn pallid in a way that was “forbidding.” His voice would turn hoarse and raucous. A powerful, contumacious, elementary force.
In short, radical shifts in mood, with frequent outbursts of pure anger.
On one occasion, during which a pallid, glassy-eyed Hitler was describing a “special mission entrusted to him,” he and August descended into town from the top of the Freinberg (a mountain near the Austrian town of Linz) in the middle of the night as “the clock struck three.”
Armed with that supernatural mission, the rest is history.
