Conservative commentator Tucker Carlson recently revealed that he was once “physically mauled” by what he suspects may have been a demon.
Carlson made the bombshell reveal during an appearance on an upcoming documentary entitled “Christianities?”

The discussion began with an interviewer, John Heers, asking him if he believed “the presence of evil is kickstarting people to wonder about the good.”
“That’s what happened to me,” Carlson responded. “I had a direct experience with it.”
“In the milieu of journalism?” Heers asked.
“No, in my bed at night,” Carlson replied. “And I got attacked while I was asleep with my wife and four dogs and mauled, physically mauled.”
“In a spiritual attack by a demon?” Heers pressed?
“Yeah, by a demon,” Carlson revealed. “Or by something unseen that left claw marks on my sides.”
“So it left physical marks?” Heers inquired.
“Oh, they’re still there,” Carlson said. “Yeah, yeah, year and a half ago.”
“Was your wife terrified?” Heers then asked. “I know you were.”
“I wasn’t,” Carlson responded. “I was totally confused. I woke up, and I couldn’t breathe, and I thought I was going to suffocate. And I walked around outside, and then I walked in and my wife and dogs had not woken up. And they’re very light sleepers.”
“And then I had these terrible pains on my rib cage and on my shoulder, and I was just in my boxer shorts and I went and flipped on the light in the bathroom, and I had four claw marks on either side underneath my arms and on my left shoulder. And they’re bleeding,” he added.
“Actual claw marks! And I sleep on my side, so I wasn’t clawing myself. I don’t have long nails, and they didn’t fit my hands anyway. But yeah, that happened,” he continued.
Tucker Carlson has gone public with the news that he was physically attacked by a demon. This is true. He told me about it a year ago. Terrifying stuff. https://t.co/ypvnqpIJG9

According to Carlson, he then consulted an Evangelical Christian associate because he’d “never heard of anything like that happening before.”
“That happens, people are attacked in their bed by demons,” the friend subsequently told him, leaving him in total bewilderment and confusion.
“What are you even talking about!?” Carlson recalled saying.
He continued by describing the transformation that occurred within him after being scratched or burned by some entity.
“Yeah, so I mean, I’m not leaving anything out, and I’m not pretending to understand that,” he began. “I can only say what happened to me — and that did happen to me! And then I was seized with this very intense desire to read the Bible, which I then started without any study aids or anything.”
“I bought a Bible. … I just want to read it and see what’s in there myself. I have very low levels of trust for Christian pastors, most of whom, you know, I’m just not a fan of at all. Sorry to say that, but that’s how I feel. And so I just don’t want to hear other people’s opinions. I just want to see what’s in there,” he added.
“And so I spent a year and a half reading it, and then I started rereading it, and it was just a transformative experience for me. But I’m not, you know, holding myself out as someone from whom you could get theological advice, because I’m not. I don’t know, I don’t understand any of it. But yeah, that happened,” he continued.
Concluding his remarks, he said he doesn’t care if nobody believes him.
“I have no idea what happened,” he said. “All I know is I was dead asleep with my wife and dogs, and I woke up with claw marks on my rib cage, underneath my arms. And it didn’t even make sense. No one has to believe me. I don’t care. But that happened to me.”
Responding to Carlson’s story, some reported having experienced the same thing at one point or another in their life.
Look:
Yes, they are for real and they do get physical.

Absolutely believe you Tucker. It happened to me when I was 22 years old.

Demons attack at night because you’re at rest, weak and vulnerable. It can happen periodically to Christians or someone drawing close to Christ. It’s happened to me and my son just in different forms. I just prayed it away. I was frozen but not scared because of my faith
