Demonology and Spiritual Warfare 8-Week Online Course
DEMONOLOGY AND SPIRITUAL WARFARE
Live Online Course for Ghost Hunters, Paranormal Investigators, and Spiritual Seekers
Taught by historian, folklorist and paranormal investigator Ursula Bielski
Some Hauntings Aren’t Hauntings at All.
Some Entities Are Not Who—or What—They Claim to Be.
From shadowy “ghosts” to fairy apparitions, alien visitors, or channeled spirit guides, deception is the devil’s oldest game. This 8-week live course explores how the Catholic Church has historically discerned demonic activity, and how demons frequently appear under the masks of:
Ghosts of the dead
Fairies or “the Good People”
Djinn and spirits of folklore
Elves, trickster entities, and “elementals”
Aliens and extraterrestrial “messengers”
Voices of light or "innocent" children
The behaviors are often identical: sleep paralysis, abduction, oppression, obsession, false teachings, and lingering torment. Learn how to recognize the signs—no matter the disguise.
COURSE DATES & FORMAT
Live every Thursday from August 7 through September 25
6:30 PM – 7:30 PM Central Time (CT)
Delivered live via Zoom
All sessions recorded and downloadable to keep
$45 for the entire course
Group or team discount available—contact for details
What You’ll Learn:
Origins of demons
The four classic forms of demonic activity: infestation, oppression, obsession, possession
How demonic spirits disguise themselves in different cultural and historical guises
Why so many ghost encounters feel like something else entirely
The danger of spiritual “curiosity”—especially after trauma or grief
How occult rituals, New Age practices, and spirit communication open doorways
What actually protects you—and how to tell what doesn’t
How to discern, with spiritual authority, whether what you’re encountering is real or a lie
This course is deeply rooted in Catholic teaching, but open to anyone willing to approach the topic with seriousness, curiosity, and a desire for truth.
