Someone pointed me to this earlier tonight, and I thought I'd share the creepiness.

It's a recording of an exorcism in a Russian Orthodox church. The "possessed" is supposedly a 16 y/o girl.

Now, I have no idea if it's authentic, or not. I tend to take the side of the skeptic generally. But even if it isn't authentic, it's still pretty creepy (especially at 3:30 in the morning with headphones on) :P

The chanting in the background, the gutteral sounds coming from the "girl", the screaming, and the ameturish recording all add to the creepy-factor, so even if it isn't real, it's pretty damn disturbing, and *ahem* good "mood music" for a later scene in my WIP. :lol:

It requires Windows Media Player, and if you're easily freaked out by this kind of thing, I wouldn't advise listening. Normally, I'm not easily freaked with this stuff, but I'll admit I glanced over my shoulders a couple of times.

But then, my favorite rides were always the spook-houses at the carnivals.

EDIT: D'OH! Might help if I actually added the links, huh? :oops:

The "article"

The recording
