On this episode of Arroyo Grande, Raymond Arroyo sits down with Father Dan Reehil, chief exorcist for the Diocese of Nashville, for a sobering and eye-opening conversation about the rise of exorcisms, the reality of spiritual warfare, and the hidden nature of evil in our modern world.
Why are cases increasing? How do people unknowingly open doors to the demonic? What’s the difference between oppression, obsession, and full possession? Father Reehil explains the Church’s process of discernment, why exorcisms happen in churches - not haunted houses - and how sacraments, confession, and the Rosary serve as powerful spiritual armor. He also addresses Ouija boards, psychics, “K-Pop demon hunters,” and the dangers of treating evil as entertainment.
This is not Hollywood. It’s a grounded, thoughtful discussion about faith, freedom, and the battle for the soul - and why Christ’s authority ultimately prevails.
