My Dark Supernatural Experience in the City of Hollywood

“And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.” – 1 John 2:17

HOLLY WOOD

Many years ago a friend and I would take a stroll on the iconic Hollywood Boulevard to check out the scene on several occasions as we lived less than an hour away by car. Back in those days, I was a huge movie buff, so I naturally had an interest to be in the heart of the mecca of the movie industry, the belly of the beast if you will. They say just about everyone who moves to Hollywood is chasing the dream to make it big in the entertainment world. The vibe one can pick up from some people there is shallowness and vanity to the extreme. It seems the average person there lives in their own self-centric worlds where the only thing that really matters is, “What’s in it for me?” The Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe once said, “Hollywood is a place where they’ll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul.” I was never part of the Hollywood movie industry, “scene”, or culture. I was just an observer looking in from the outside. The carnal part of me was fascinated by what I saw, but the other part of me hated it. Sad to say, during that period in my life, I was very lukewarm in my walk with Christ.

Hollywood Boulevard is the main street of Hollywood and is perhaps the main tourist attraction of the city. One of the first things to come to mind at the mention of Hollywood Boulevard is the landmarks such as the Hollywood Walk of Fame (yeah, I noticed it’s a pentagram), and the theaters such as the El Capitan Entertainment Centre (formerly the Hollywood Masonic Temple). But there are many other things one can see there that won’t be found in a travel brochure. Depending on the time of the day or night, one can see a tarot reader offering readings on the sidewalk, Scientology cult members trying to recruit passersby, crowds of clubbers, street performers, people dressed in Spider-Man and Marilyn Monroe cosplay, random street fights, and people flaunting their $100,000+ cars. One can see all this with the backdrop of tattoo shops, strip clubs, sex shops, dance clubs, bars, liquor stores, psychic shops, the Museum of Death, Scientology buildings, etc. It’s not a street of wholesomeness, to say the least.

THE VIPER DOOM

To call Hollywood Boulevard a seedy and sordid place late at night would be an understatement. Depending on the time of the night, you can see more than a handful of prostitutes on the street corners, teenage runaways, homeless people (many look destitute), and “mentally ill” people roaming around. I have probably only seen a minuscule part of what really goes on there, but even that is enough to appall some people.

Being there, one can sense some kind of “dark energy” in the air, or maybe it just was all in my head. Or maybe not. I believed I had a very blatant supernatural experience while walking on the Boulevard. It is something that I will never forget. While walking on the sidewalk at around 2 or 3 AM with a friend, I distinctly and suddenly felt the evilest feeling all around me. The evil felt so tangible and palpable. It was like someone literally opened Pandora’s box and let loose legions of evil spirits. I can imagine that is what the atmosphere of hell would feel like, but with more intensity. The evil in the atmosphere felt so thick and oppressive that it made me uncomfortable, and so I wanted to leave immediately. I was repulsed by it. The feeling prompted me to ask my friend with me if he felt the evil presence. He said he felt nothing. I looked around me to see if anyone else noticed what I felt. It was strange, not a single person seemed to notice. The many clubbers all around me were obliviously caught up in their hedonistic revelries. I thought to myself, “how is it they don’t feel what I strongly feel?” I would like to believe I am a very level-headed, rational guy. But what I experienced felt so real to be just in my head.

It wasn’t until years later I realized what I experienced was real and the cause of it. It was satan and his demons active in the area. That explained the “dark energy” in the air I keenly sensed. I had a similar experience during a sleep paralysis attack—sometimes the feeling of evil would be localized in my bedroom during an episode (and I have no doubt sleep paralysis is attributed to the demonic realm). But that night on Hollywood Boulevard, the evil feeling covered the whole area.

I can also recall seeing many people there late at night under some kind of spell, as if an unseen hand was manipulating and influencing them. I don’t have any doubt it was the enemy of mankind — satan. This shouldn’t surprise any Christian with discernment, considering Hollywood is the birthplace of the movie industry, which is undoubtedly controlled by satan. The Bible does read the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one (1 John 5:19).

If there was a spot in the world that have a concentration of just about every abomination to God, Hollywood (and Sunset) Boulevard may qualify: from the New Age practices, the cults, every form of sexual immorality, illicit drug use, the vanity, self-centeredness, to the apathy towards the homeless and runaways. It may not be as depraved as Sodom and Gomorrah have been, but it’s close. All the sin practiced there opened the doors wide open for the demons to have free rein in the area to operate and establish a foothold. The same can be said about the South Side and West Side of Chicago, where there are reports of murder or attempted murder every week, mostly related to gang violence. Chicago has been plagued with mobster violence going back to the prohibition era of the 1920s. Spirits of murder seem to have a foothold in parts of the city even to this day.

What is interesting is that I actually discerned the different kinds of spirits in that area of Hollywood. It distinctly felt like spirits of drunkenness, worldliness, drugs, lust, vanity, sex, and violence. Those are the sins many people there seem to be in bondage to. In contrast, I have also experienced the powerful presence of God’s Spirit in a sanctuary at a church. I felt the Holy Spirit so tangible that I wouldn’t want to leave the sanctuary ever. The presence of the Holy Spirit is so wonderful it is beyond words one can describe. As blatant, continuous sins can bring the presence of demons in the area, so can praise and worship of God bring the presence of the Holy Spirit.

I share this experience because I notice some unbelievers visit this site. Please know there is more to this world than what meets the eye. The Bible reads “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places” (Ephesians. 6:12). There is a real war going on for every soul on earth, as there is a real spirit world alongside this world. Satan tempts people with the pleasures of the world—with the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life. The Bible reads he is the god of this age or world (2 Cor. 4:4), and he blinds the minds of unbelievers (Mark 4:15; Acts 26:18).

The Bible reveals everything in the world is temporal—it is passing away and will be burned with fire (Matt. 24:35; 2 Peter 3:7). It makes sense why the Bible reads to “Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth” (Col. 3:2), and to not “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him” (1 John 2:15). The Bible even reads friendship of the world is enmity with God (James 4:4). We are all a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes, but there is an eternal reality where we will be judged, yet the enemy tries to convince us to pursue the vain things of this world before our last breath. One example was Marilyn Monroe, who fulfilled her Hollywood dreams but seemed unhappy and died in such a state. As far as I know, she died without knowing God. Where did her soul go?

The only way one can switch from being of satan’s kingdom to God’s kingdom is by repenting and turning to the Lord Jesus Christ—who is the way, the truth, and the life, and the only way to the Father (John 14:6). He can open your eyes to see clearly how dark and evil this world really is and the dark forces behind it.

If you don’t know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you can receive Him into your heart, and He can deliver you from darkness and sin and have your name written in His Book of Life.

If you are sincere, you can say this simple prayer to the Father (it doesn’t have to be word-for-word):

“God, I recognize that I have not lived my life for You up until now. I have been living for myself and that is wrong. Please forgive me of all of my sins just as I forgive others. I need You in my life; I want You in my life. I acknowledge the completed work of Your only-begotten Son Jesus Christ in giving His life for me on the cross, I believe in my heart Jesus is Lord and was raised from the dead and I long to receive the forgiveness you have made freely available to me through this sacrifice. Come into my life now, Lord. Take up residence in my heart and be my king, my Lord, and my Savior. From this day forward, I will no longer be controlled by sin, or the desire to please myself, but I will follow You all the days of my life. Those days are in Your hands. I ask this in the Lord and GOD Jesus’ precious and holy name. Amen.”

  2. Brilliant and so well explained – as usual!
    I had a similar experience about 2 years ago:
    I think you are correct and it is my belief that not only the film, but also the music industry is in satan’s hand and that he is using it to destroy lives.

    I had stopped listening to worldly music after I got saved, it was hard for me, I had loved rap, soul, funk, hiphop, anything black…
    I realized that satan uses music to catch souls – you’ve also written about it…

    The only reason why I went to see Gregory Porter in the Royal Albert Hall in London in April 2018 (I didn’t live in London at the time, I went there to go to this concert and spend a few days in London, because I thought GOD wanted me to move there and 2 months after the concert, I did) was because I had felt something godly in his music and I had read that his father was a pastor and he learned music in church… but I was wrong, it is worldly music, beautiful and a bit deeper than usual, but worldly…

    And at this concert, actually right from when I entered the hall, I felt really sick, numbed and almost paralyzed… I felt dizzy… heavy…
    I could clearly see a sort of dark cloud all over the audience… the music was beautiful and his voice was flawless as usual, but there was a dark presence and I could see it suck life out of everyone in the audience… the demons were harvesting life out of people who had come deliberately… and GOD revealed to me in that moment, just as we come to church to get filled, we go to worldly events to be emptied and fed on… concerts, movies, theaters, all gatherings, nowadays even the demonstrations and riots and marches against racism… it is all staged by the enemy… he wants as many people to gather as possible, with intense emotions, regardless if these emotions are negative or positive, he doesn’t care, his demons live from emotions, they are their food…. EVERY gathering which is not for GOD is for the devil and he has the legal right to eat and to steal souls and to send his demons into people…

    The fear caused by a virus which may not even exist… all food for demons… but I hope, pray and believe that just as demons will multiply from this pandemic and the fear, SO will the church, GOD will use this for a big revival and for the great harvest of souls before the second coming – that’s what I believe.

    People, these things are real.

    GOD is real.

    And this blog is excellent to educate yourself, especially if you don’t believe in the devil or in witchcraft or black magic… Brother Jamaal has done some extensive and excellent research and he is exposing the enemy and if you read these articles, they will help you get free!

    GOD bless you my brother for the great work you are doing!

      Thank you for sharing your story, that must of been such a horrible feeling being surrounded by evil, it’s something many of us feel if we allow ourselves to listen to our hearts. This world is becoming increasingly evil, we only have to look at what’s going on around us, good has become bad, lies have become truth, people have become extremely selfish and horrible to each other, parents are dishonoured, those wanting to follow Jesus are ridiculed, persecuted and often killed. All things our lord told us would be happening in the last days, and it’s happening.

  3. What an excellent article! It’s amazing and confirmation for me to read this because for the past 3 months I’ve been praying everyday for Hollywood. I pray that God will bring the hearts of people to make movies, sitcoms, series, etc with a more wholesome content. The sexual content is getting ridiculous and scary because it leads to so many different kinds of sins. Marriages are ruined. Children are ruined. It even leads believers to follow the darkness which becomes practicing sins. And when you live in sin, you are living in wickedness and according to the scriptures you are an evildoer in God’s eyes and that leads to death.
    My heart is really broken on this topic. I hope other believes will join with me in prayer everyday for Hollywood. And thank you for exposing the truth and bringing our attention to something very serious.

      Really good comment. I’m a creative person. I write all kinds of stuff, play guitar and make up songs and music, I have enjoyed photographing landscapes, countryside, skies sunsets and many other things and like many people enjoy films, art, paintings etc etc.

      What I am beginning to understand is that the Lord can be the Lord of our creative life, desires and ambitions, too. The Bible is quite stark in many life. King David has his ups and downs, there’s violence, brutality, warfare, bloodshed, rape, double dealing and lots more… and that’s on a good day!!!

      I’m being serious! We know the world is a deeply fallen place but we know that the Lord wants us to draw away from evil and worldly things in general. If we do whatever we do, including our creative things, to the glory of the Lord He will provide us with success and with good and wholesome creations.

      Hollywood seems to be particularly bad, but perhaps no worse than most institutions.

    I am so glad somebody else feels it, especially in Hollywood. I grew up and lived right outside of Hollywood my entire life. I actually grew up about a mile from West Hollywood which is the new Sodom and Gemora. I would have to drive to Hollywood to get on the freeway but I would literally drive out of my way to avoid that place because I felt the evil so strongly there. If I would have to sit at a stoplight I would get so anxious and just feel such evil around me even in mid day. I remember a former satan worshipper turned Christian gave away the secrets of the devil and said that whole areas are demonized that’s why there’s so much sin in certain areas because the demons control the area. I always remember that and knew Hollywood was completely demonized. I also know that it takes a certain type of person to want to live there and pay more money to be in that environment. When I would tell people they wouldn’t understand even so-called Christians. I finally got out of that area I moved about 40 minutes away and live a few blocks from my church which I attend daily. I dread going back there and when I have to, pick up some stuff for my moms house which just happened to be today I felt that eerie feeling again just driving through there. I happened to stumble across that article as I’m still struggling with the energy that stuck to me today. Thanks for posting. I’m glad someone else feels it (not glad that it’s there but that I’m not alone in what I know).

      I grew up in Hollywood from age 11 and left age 20 during the 1960’s. My family lived in two different rentals. 1925 N.Bronson Ave just above Franklin. It was a two stort apt. Mom slept downstairs and told me she woke up middle of the night and saw a man with a beard. He walked towards the kitchen. She got up but he was nowhere and the kitchen door was locked with a chain. She also said one night the wall on the west side of the living room vibrated. The apt bldg was torn down mid 1960’s and replaced with shops. Then we moved to 1826 N.Van Ness Ave. An old house divided in two. We lived downstairs. Another family lived upstairs. Mom saw a white cloud floating around the laundry room. I saw a white cloud come in my window and go out my back door window. I felt my bed shake middle of the night once and one morning I woke up with brown gooey stuff on my teeth. Dad asked me if I ate chocolate. Another morning a puddle of water was on top of my dresser. After high school I worked at Fox movie theater both shifts alternating matinee amd nights taking the city bus and upstairs at Fox felt very spooky. I was always the only one the city bus after 11 pm. I would run up Van Ness to get home from the bus stop. I was sent to to the Chinese theater by the manager one day to work as as loan out and it felt horribly scary to me. It’s evil. When I left I felt a huge sense of relief. I am in my 70’s and have frequent nightmares about Hollywood High School and Hollywood Blvd. and struggling to get home. In many dream I get lost off if Hollywood blvd and become trapped in a two story bright red building with Chinese signs on it. I struggle to escape and climb out thru a small window.

          I was baptised Catholic, my dad’s faith and Baptized at my aunt’s Baptist church in the valley when I was around ten years old. My parents did not attend church in Hollywood. Mom died age 49 from chain smoking. Dad died age 52 from alcoholism off and on. My aunt told me when she lived in Santa Monica part of the 1940’s during the war when her fiance was in the South Pacific, she met an elderly woman in her apt bldg who taught her to eat health foods, be a Christian and Conservative and that is what my aunt taught me too. I never ate at any of the junk food places when I was a teen. No hamburgers, hot dogs or pizzas. I bought apples from the school vending machines, yogurt from the market and whole grain breads. She had Dr Bernard Jensen’s book “Vital Foods For Total Health” This has recipes for three meals a day but Dr. Jensen said he ate two meals a day.

            My family were poor too. Yes, I agree, most wealthy people have little regard for anyone else, and a kind of religion justifies the greed, wealth and privileges of people who have never known God. Namechecking God for your own selfishness and vanity is coming very close to blasphemy. But this is the way of the world.

          I think areas in many cities and towns have a negative spiritual environment and atmosphere about them. Hollywood seems curious because although it is obviously a wealthy place, whereas many dangerous areas in cities are usually poor and low rent places. I guess that Hollywood, like Las Vegas and Broadway and numbers of other places bring tourists, chancers, entrepreneurs, the desperate and also many people looking for kicks or to get high.

          In British cities, towns and even some villages, there are often big problems with people drinking and going out on the tiles on Fridays and the weekends. Some of the behaviour is absolutely atrocious, with drunkenness, violence, streetfights and many other things. I am certain that a lot of it is people doing what they want. But a lot of Western activity borders on excess and gross behaviour, in all walks of life. The enemy hides behind our sinfulness and our outrageous selfishness and desire for pleasure at any price.

          We first live by keeping away from such places and behaviour. I was a wild liver at one point. I see it as hollow and empty now, thank God.

            I read this in a book. “A poor man with $1.00 in their pocket will give half of what he has to help someone else but a rich man won’t give half of what he has to help someone else.” I was never impressed with what others have. I grew up poor in Hollywood and the wealthy kids wouldn’t give me the time of day, but my dad who didn’t have much money bought me a nice watch for my birthday. The rent didn’t always get paid and eventually we were evicted but my parents were nice people and everyone who met them, loved them. They had an A.A. (alcoholics anonymous) counselor who lived in the St Francis Hotel and back then it was a low rent place where people ended up after they had hit rock bottom. Most were recovering drug and alcohol addicts. Any Albany wrote a book called “Low Down” you should read. She and her dad lived there. The one thing I learned growing up in Hollywood was that the poor like my family and other poor people were the sane people and the wealthy people were the insane people. Mom told us when she was at Camarillo state hospital for treatment of alcoholism she learned she was normal and it was everyone else who was abnormal. So I look at the rich, as the bad people and the poor as the good people because that is what I personally experienced and witnessed while growing up. The rch people back then and the rich today are mostly unbelievers. The rich ones who say they are Christians back then and today don’t live like Jesus.

          I started having Hollywood nightmares after joining Facebook, connecting with past friends and former classmates and was on a HHS alumni group and Hollywood group. My nightmares “ended” when I quit Facebook and ended contact with former friends, and classmates. One former classmate said she had nightmares went to a Psychiatrist who told her to go back and walk the halls of Hollywood High. A former teacher named Richard Rippey that both my brother and I had, told my brother on an alumni day visit to walk with his back facing the walls. The school is like a prison now. The same with my junior high. Le Conte jr. high. Don’t think of the devil because he will come to you. Don’t think of Hollywood either.
