A Mi Hermano Lo Poseyó Un Demonio Historias De Terror - REDE

WEBVTT

1
00:00:05.080 --> 00:00:08.359
I didn' t believe in the
existence of the devil. For me it

2
00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:13.240
was an unlikely fact to believe in
the great power I had. Perhaps it

3
00:00:13.279 --> 00:00:18.480
was a little paradoxical to say that
he believed in Christ and to deny the

4
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:22.280
truth about evil. My parents professed
the Christian religion and the formation they gave

5
00:00:22.320 --> 00:00:27.760
us was according to their beliefs.
While I was a child, I performed

6
00:00:27.879 --> 00:00:31.440
all the rituals that I was taught. Deep down, I think I was

7
00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:36.039
always a rebel because I didn'
t like attending church. What I liked

8
00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:42.520
was going to Christian camps. It
was like having a vacation without our parents

9
00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:47.200
taking us to a nearby place in
the city that in turn was away from

10
00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:52.039
the noise. Usually, they did
it in a large house where there was

11
00:00:52.079 --> 00:00:57.640
a river, lake, or lagoon
nearby to take us during the recreational time

12
00:00:57.719 --> 00:01:03.240
to swim in the water. My
sister was the one who put the most

13
00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:07.560
attention in the meetings. On the
other hand, my brother Nacho and I

14
00:01:07.640 --> 00:01:11.719
were a little more zapatic. Maybe
it was because we were starting to get

15
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:17.239
into adolescence and we started having another
set of tastes. I remember that I

16
00:01:17.359 --> 00:01:22.959
was fifteen and my brother was thirteen. When we went to summer camp,

17
00:01:23.079 --> 00:01:26.239
my sister also went, but she
was meeting with the other girls in the

18
00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:32.239
congregation. That summer of two thousand
and three was the first in which I

19
00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:37.079
began to have a different view of
the religion my parents professed and had instilled

20
00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:42.040
in us. During the camp.
I met another boy by the name of

21
00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:46.920
Daniel. He was my age.
It was the first time I saw him

22
00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:51.159
go to the Christian summer. As
soon as we met, we did good

23
00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:55.439
chemistry. Soon he trusted me and
told me about the problems he was experiencing

24
00:01:55.480 --> 00:01:59.280
with his parents. We both disagreed
with the Christian formation they gave us.

25
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:06.920
Before concluding the camp, Daniel gave
me his phone number and address. We

26
00:02:06.959 --> 00:02:12.840
intended to keep seeing each other and
continue to chat our disagreements. For the

27
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:17.479
last night, our guides made a
campfire very close to the lagoon. We

28
00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:23.400
all sit around the fire. One
of the girls took the initiative. He

29
00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:29.360
provided us with a blank sheet,
as well as a pencil to write.

30
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:34.520
He asked us to split it in
two and in one half write what we

31
00:02:34.599 --> 00:02:39.719
learned during the camping week. He
gave us a few minutes so we could

32
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:46.319
have enough time to reflect right away. He told us to put in the

33
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:52.159
other half of the leaf what we
would like to learn, to know,

34
00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:55.520
to know whatever doubt or longing we
have. We could write it on the

35
00:02:55.560 --> 00:03:00.759
blank sheet. We had nothing to
worry about, because no one was going

36
00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:06.639
to see our leaves. After the
activity ended, the guide asked us to

37
00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:13.360
burn our leaves repeating amen. I
really don' t know what Nacho and

38
00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:16.199
Daniel put up, but when we
did that activity, the three of us

39
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:21.439
turned around to see. While we
smiled, we threw our papers, we

40
00:03:21.479 --> 00:03:23.479
saw how they were consumed in the
fire. To conclude, the activity.

41
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:29.840
We sang a praise and went to
rest. They gave us the opportunity to

42
00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:36.719
share experiences with our peers without revealing
so much when we were together, my

43
00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:39.280
brother Daniel and I asked them what
they had written. On the second sheet.

44
00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:44.919
The first to speak was Daniel saying
that he wanted to travel and know

45
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:49.439
other places, as well as to
have many girlfriends, and began to laugh

46
00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:53.360
nacho. It was more correct.
He wrote that our family was healthy and

47
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:58.960
we were always together. After I
heard what they had written, I felt

48
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:02.960
a little embarrassed. I hesitated a
bit to make my comment. Daniel was

49
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:08.400
the first to throw a pillow because
he saw I didn' t dare talk.

50
00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:13.800
Then my brother seconded him, leaving
aside, the shame I told them

51
00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:18.920
that I had written that I really
didn' t know if there was God

52
00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:23.040
and the demon who wanted to have
proof of his existence. Both Daniel and

53
00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:29.519
my brother remained silent at the time. I felt judged, but right away.

54
00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:34.560
They started laughing like what I wrote
was a joke. I really did

55
00:04:34.680 --> 00:04:39.920
it with the idea of knowing if
there was good and evil. We all

56
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:46.199
take it as a mockery and keep
playing with the pillows. It was several

57
00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:49.399
days after we returned from the camp. The routine in the house was the

58
00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:54.959
same as always. My dad was
the one who left us in high school

59
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:59.120
before he went to work. I
was taking my brother and I was taking

60
00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:02.959
my sister to my mom because she
was still in elementary school. Instead,

61
00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:08.800
my brother was in junior high and
I was in junior high. I was

62
00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:13.439
just about to finish it. On
one occasion we came from school, it

63
00:05:13.720 --> 00:05:16.199
occurred to me to go visit Daniel. I didn' t know anything about

64
00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:19.759
him anymore. So we went to
high school. I wasn' t very

65
00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:26.000
close to our Nacho was always the
quietest and most obedient to my parents.

66
00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:30.959
Every time I asked him to do
something wrong right away, he told me

67
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:33.000
that what he planned to do was
not right. When I proposed to go

68
00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:36.800
to Daniel' s high school right
away, he said yes. He didn

69
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:41.360
' t even give me any warnings. It was rather strange that he behaved

70
00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:46.000
that way to see nacho so excited
to break the rules. He was the

71
00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:50.360
one in the lead. It was
the first time I paid attention to the

72
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:55.480
changes that had occurred in my brother. I didn' t get abnormal.

73
00:05:56.040 --> 00:06:00.639
I thought I was just going into
adolescence and I was also beginning to question

74
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:04.800
a lot of things. I had
already told Daniel that we were going to

75
00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:10.240
visit him, so he was waiting
for us outside high school in a shaded

76
00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:12.920
tree. As soon as we saw
him, we ran to say hello.

77
00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:17.399
We walked together, chatting, catching
up. After a while of being with

78
00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:21.959
my friend, we said goodbye to
him and each of us took our course.

79
00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:27.839
On the way back to school,
Nacho continued to talk about everything and

80
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:31.519
nothing. At the same time I
was excited to talk about games. When

81
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:35.360
I got home, my mom was
already worried we weren' t getting there.

82
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:40.240
I was always the one lying to
my parents. This time, Nacho

83
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:45.439
took the lead by arguing a series
of lies that even I believed I no

84
00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:51.480
longer had to intervene because my mom
no longer asked. She picked up her

85
00:06:51.720 --> 00:06:57.000
belongings and left immediately for work.
That afternoon, my dad spoke to us

86
00:06:57.120 --> 00:07:00.800
on the phone to let us know
that he would stay at work for some

87
00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:03.160
time or extra time, so he
would arrive at night. He asked me

88
00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:08.839
to take care of my brothers and
if we were hungry, we could order

89
00:07:08.839 --> 00:07:12.480
a pizza. After finishing the assignment, I invited my brothers to watch a

90
00:07:12.600 --> 00:07:17.399
film. Nacho was in the room
listening to loud music. I asked him

91
00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:23.519
to turn the music down a bit
because he wouldn' t allow us to

92
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:27.959
listen to television, but he kept
making a fuss all afternoon. We were

93
00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:32.240
already upset. My sister and I, hearing the keys enter the lock,

94
00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:39.040
we breathe relieved. My dad would
put order in the house. Similarly,

95
00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:43.120
my dad felt it was a lot
of fuss that my brother was making,

96
00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:47.879
so he immediately went up to his
room. I didn' t know what

97
00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:51.959
happened. I just got to hear
that they were arguing. Nacho was the

98
00:07:51.959 --> 00:07:56.959
one who raised his voice the most. My dad' s words were barely

99
00:07:57.040 --> 00:08:01.000
heard. It was so much my
brother' s anger that he ran down

100
00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:05.319
and slammed the door. It was
weird to see my brother so upset and

101
00:08:05.319 --> 00:08:11.800
listen to my dad arguing because he
was an extremely quiet person. I don

102
00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:16.600
' t know what caused that discussion. They happened after ten o' clock

103
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:20.079
at night and my brother wasn'
t coming, my parents were already worried.

104
00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:28.439
My mom insisted we call the police
to report her disappearance. Perhaps the

105
00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:33.240
position of my parents seemed a little
exaggerated, but it was quite understandable,

106
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:39.399
since Nacho had never done that.
My dad was marking the police. When

107
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:43.759
we heard they knocked on the door. It was my brother who got hit.

108
00:08:43.320 --> 00:08:48.279
He was bleeding out of his mouth. We immediately asked him what had

109
00:08:48.360 --> 00:08:52.399
happened. We thought he was mugged. When he saw us so worried.

110
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:58.000
She started laughing with laughter as her
red teeth were seen from the blood,

111
00:08:58.279 --> 00:09:03.120
saying that we didn' t skip
so much. He had just been beaten

112
00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:07.440
with other boys and, as we
saw, he was not exactly a very

113
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:11.840
smart person to fight because they had
left him as Christ on the Cross.

114
00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.399
He said it in such a mockery
way that it even seemed blasphemy to me.

115
00:09:16.720 --> 00:09:22.000
My dad immediately claimed him by scolding
him for his words. At that

116
00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:26.240
time I understood my dad because Nacho
laughed like he was mocking my father'

117
00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:33.480
s words. I asked Nacho to
calm down and keep quiet. He didn

118
00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:37.919
' t answer anything. He just
stared at me while smiling in a grotesque

119
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:43.240
way because he still had blood.
I took him to the room. While

120
00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:46.440
he was cleaning up, I asked
him if he had drugged himself. He

121
00:09:46.480 --> 00:09:52.080
didn' t even answer me.
He continued to say a series of inconsistencies,

122
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:56.000
as if he did not realize his
reality. I was convinced that he

123
00:09:56.080 --> 00:10:01.679
had put an amazing substance into his
body because he acted in a very rare

124
00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:07.120
way. I texted Daniel to tell
him how my brother was. He immediately

125
00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:13.440
told me to be on the lookout, because perhaps he was beginning to have

126
00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:16.080
bad friendships that would lead him down
the road of vice. It was best

127
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:20.240
to take care of him so that
he would no longer ingest toxic substances.

128
00:10:20.799 --> 00:10:24.879
He also calmed me down by telling
me that maybe it was the first time

129
00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:28.360
I did it and I had only
done it out of curiosity. Nacho took

130
00:10:28.440 --> 00:10:33.200
time to fall asleep. I brought
him a sandwich with a glass of milk

131
00:10:33.240 --> 00:10:37.919
to cut off the effect of drugs. It most likely worked because he immediately

132
00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:46.200
fell asleep. He didn' t
even undress, he just lay face down

133
00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:50.080
while snoring in an exaggerated way,
I took off his shoes and covered him

134
00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:54.679
with his blanket. In the morning
he rose as if nothing had happened.

135
00:10:54.480 --> 00:11:01.879
He looked at him carefully to see
his reactions. It mattered in a normal

136
00:11:01.879 --> 00:11:05.559
way. He started talking about one
of his high school classmates, until I

137
00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:09.720
got desperate and asked him if he
didn' t remember anything. He looked

138
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:15.320
at me strangely. Again I asked
him the same question. He said no.

139
00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:18.000
What had happened. I didn'
t really believe him. That'

140
00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:20.679
s why I didn' t answer
him. I just slapped him on the

141
00:11:20.759 --> 00:11:26.080
back telling him that yesterday I had
been very worried about my parents and that

142
00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:31.519
I wouldn' t do it again
as expected. My dad was upset with

143
00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:35.679
him. He tried to disguise his
anger by asking him how he felt.

144
00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:41.320
He replied very well. I think
my dad didn' t want to argue

145
00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:43.600
again. He only asked her not
to be late again, as they were

146
00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:48.639
very worried and if she went out, just tell them where she was going.

147
00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:54.399
During the journey to high school I
watched Nacho carefully. Again he was

148
00:11:54.519 --> 00:12:00.240
my brother, quiet and quiet forever. I was relieved to believe that I

149
00:12:00.279 --> 00:12:05.440
was not able to get substances into
her body. The following days passed with

150
00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:11.159
the same daily and calmness as always. Nacho was the same quiet teenager I

151
00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:18.000
knew until one night the silence was
interrupted by my brother. I didn'

152
00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:22.679
t realize what time in the morning
he woke up and got up, started

153
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:28.639
talking inconsistencies as he moved all over
the room. He was groping in a

154
00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:33.000
strange way, as if he wanted
to fly. First he woke me up

155
00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:37.919
because I was standing at the side
of my bed, watching me sleep without

156
00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:41.399
saying anything with my eyes wide open. I didn' t know how I

157
00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:46.200
woke up, as I was in
a deep sleep. When I opened my

158
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:50.320
eyes, I was scared because I
was there attentive to my dream right away.

159
00:12:50.519 --> 00:12:54.840
He went crazy to move all over
the room. I was telling him

160
00:12:54.879 --> 00:13:00.720
to calm down, but he didn' t seem to listen to me He

161
00:13:00.720 --> 00:13:03.679
was into his madness. I got
up and grabbed him in the back to

162
00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:09.240
react, but he pulled me back
with a huge force. My brother was

163
00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:15.480
younger than me. It seemed to
have more strength I fell to the floor,

164
00:13:15.639 --> 00:13:20.200
I hurt my waist, but that
didn' t stop me from getting

165
00:13:20.240 --> 00:13:24.000
up upset and throwing it out the
same way Nacho did. He reacted immediately.

166
00:13:24.440 --> 00:13:26.639
There was a fight between the two
of us. Since we never had

167
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:31.759
a fight, we threw several things
around my parents. They immediately entered the

168
00:13:31.759 --> 00:13:37.360
room. My dad screamed it was
the first time I saw him so upset.

169
00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:41.279
He was usually a quiet and tolerant
man. In this case it was

170
00:13:41.279 --> 00:13:48.039
different. We were behaving like two
wild animals. I immediately released my brother.

171
00:13:48.960 --> 00:13:52.559
He also did it and kept looking
at me, as he had never

172
00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:56.519
done before. His gaze was one
of hatred. My dad said the next

173
00:13:56.600 --> 00:14:01.639
day we' d talk when we
were all quieter. He asked us to

174
00:14:01.639 --> 00:14:07.480
go to bed to sleep, because
the next day there were activities for everyone.

175
00:14:07.919 --> 00:14:13.000
I' d be lying if I
told them I could sleep like nothing

176
00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:16.639
ever happened. I was until dawn
trying to understand what was happening to my

177
00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:22.080
brother and how he had come to
get that way. If he was as

178
00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:28.559
quiet as my dad while still looking
for an explanation of my brother Nacho'

179
00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:33.159
s abrupt behavior, he fell asleep
immediately, even snoring in a way I

180
00:14:33.200 --> 00:14:37.519
had not heard before. It took
me a long time to sleep. I

181
00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:41.399
heard my mom knocking on the door
so we could manage to go to high

182
00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:48.159
school. During breakfast no one commented
anything except that my dad asked us to

183
00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:54.120
make peace and from that moment on
we treated ourselves with much respect. Nacho

184
00:14:54.200 --> 00:15:00.320
and I nodded without saying more words, we got up from the dining room

185
00:15:00.360 --> 00:15:03.679
to go to high school. That
day we left in complete silence on the

186
00:15:03.799 --> 00:15:09.159
way to school. As soon as
we got to the school building, my

187
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:15.720
dad told us that the Holy Spirit
was with us all the time that we

188
00:15:15.720 --> 00:15:18.200
didn' t let him down.
Nacho made a strange grunt, but neither

189
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:22.799
my dad nor I said anything.
We got out of the car. My

190
00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:28.600
brother began to walk slowly and fast
so that we wouldn' t get there

191
00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:33.279
before they closed the door. Nacho
smiled again in that strange way and told

192
00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:37.200
me that he would not enter classes, he did not feel like doing it.

193
00:15:37.679 --> 00:15:41.840
He began to walk quickly to the
opposite side of the school entrance.

194
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:46.240
I wanted to reach him, but
at that moment the prefect went out to

195
00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:50.080
check the gadgets. I didn'
t say anything anymore, because Nacho would

196
00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:54.360
get into trouble. I just turned
to where he went I got to see

197
00:15:54.399 --> 00:16:00.080
him when he turned to the right
of the street and lost sight of him

198
00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:03.799
leaving high school. I was afraid
Nacho wasn' t outside, but as

199
00:16:03.799 --> 00:16:08.200
soon as I saw him, my
calm returned. I didn' t really

200
00:16:08.240 --> 00:16:12.360
find any sense in what he did, but since I didn' t want

201
00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:18.080
to fight him anymore, I was
quiet shortly before I got home. Nacho

202
00:16:18.159 --> 00:16:23.320
stopped. He turned around and said
softly. The thing is, I have

203
00:16:23.440 --> 00:16:27.799
a new friend. He tells me
things I never thought could be possible.

204
00:16:29.879 --> 00:16:34.039
It also makes me laugh only that
sometimes it gets very upset if things don

205
00:16:34.120 --> 00:16:38.080
' t work out as expected.
That' s why he didn' t

206
00:16:38.080 --> 00:16:44.919
finish telling me what he wanted anymore, because suddenly he was quiet as much

207
00:16:44.960 --> 00:16:48.840
as I tried to keep him talking. I didn' t get it on.

208
00:16:48.840 --> 00:16:52.000
As soon as we entered the house, Nacho went to his bedroom,

209
00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:56.039
I spoke to him to come down
to eat with us. I went to

210
00:16:56.080 --> 00:17:00.519
the room. I was gonna open
the door when I heard he was talking

211
00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:03.880
to someone. I thought he was
calling. That' s why I waited

212
00:17:04.000 --> 00:17:07.839
for it to end. But since
I kept talking, I knocked on the

213
00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:12.480
door and went into the room.
He jumped from the impression he gave him.

214
00:17:12.559 --> 00:17:17.799
When he saw me, he began
to stutter and give meaningless explanations.

215
00:17:18.480 --> 00:17:21.359
I asked him to calm down and
he didn' t have to tell me

216
00:17:21.359 --> 00:17:25.680
anything. I just wanted him to
eat a little nacho. He didn'

217
00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:27.759
t want to eat. I knew
something was wrong with my brother. I

218
00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:33.599
had no idea what it was.
When I got rid of my schoolwork,

219
00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:38.640
I texted Daniel. I told him
how strange my brother was and how erratic

220
00:17:38.720 --> 00:17:44.000
he was. I thought Daniel wouldn' t understand me. It was weird

221
00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:47.799
that he asked me when I was
like this and what I was doing.

222
00:17:48.559 --> 00:17:52.400
I hadn' t started thinking about
what you asked me. I replied that

223
00:17:52.640 --> 00:17:56.680
I had to analyze it because I
didn' t know. I asked Daniel

224
00:17:56.759 --> 00:18:00.759
what that had to do with my
middle brother' s behavior, because he

225
00:18:00.759 --> 00:18:08.000
suspected he was using substances. For
this reason the sudden mood swings. Daniel

226
00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:14.119
made a comment to me that I
had not even gone through my mind to

227
00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:19.039
take into account that sometimes evil acted
in different ways and perhaps what my brother

228
00:18:19.160 --> 00:18:25.720
had was not a product of substance
consumption, but that evil was taking over

229
00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:32.400
his body. What Daniel told me
seemed quite unrealistic. I didn' t

230
00:18:32.839 --> 00:18:37.119
contradict it, but I didn'
t even believe it and maybe he noticed

231
00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:41.599
it because he stopped talking about it. I stopped talking to my friend because

232
00:18:41.720 --> 00:18:45.680
I heard my sister screaming. When
I went down to the dining room,

233
00:18:47.400 --> 00:18:51.480
Nacho chased her around the table.
He caught her holding her hair. While

234
00:18:51.519 --> 00:18:55.960
my sister screamed desperate, I yelled
at her to let go. He smiled

235
00:18:56.039 --> 00:19:00.839
in a sinister way. He had
to be stopped by the sword. Again

236
00:19:00.920 --> 00:19:04.640
he tried to win me over with
his great strength, but this time he

237
00:19:04.759 --> 00:19:11.119
did not succeed. He started screaming
like crazy while keeping him immobilized. When

238
00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:14.720
he calmed down, I let him
go. He started insulting me with words

239
00:19:14.759 --> 00:19:18.319
I' d rather not repeat.
My sister cried very scared. I hugged

240
00:19:18.359 --> 00:19:22.920
her to calm her down. Little
by little he calmed down, while Nacho

241
00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:26.960
became intense again. A little before
my parents arrived, he calmed down.

242
00:19:27.680 --> 00:19:33.079
He stopped throwing things in his room. As soon as my sister saw my

243
00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:37.279
dad, she went to hug him
and tell him how Nacho had gotten.

244
00:19:37.680 --> 00:19:42.279
My father stared at me. I
didn' t mean anything, because I

245
00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:48.279
felt Nacho could hear everything I was
saying. Later, my dad went out

246
00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:51.839
to pick up my mom. To
work. I asked my sister to leave

247
00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:56.839
with my dad She didn' t
even doubt it. He immediately left with

248
00:19:56.880 --> 00:20:00.200
him as soon as they left.
I went to bed with Nacho. He

249
00:20:00.279 --> 00:20:07.599
had fallen asleep, snoring loudly as
he snuck through his belongings. He started

250
00:20:07.720 --> 00:20:12.160
moving in a strange way. His
limbs became tense, he was as paralyzed

251
00:20:12.240 --> 00:20:18.200
with his eyes open. It was
quite disturbing to see him in that state.

252
00:20:18.799 --> 00:20:22.599
I took a picture of him and
sent it to Daniel. He immediately

253
00:20:22.680 --> 00:20:27.000
answered me. He told me not
to hesitate. My brother was possessed.

254
00:20:27.680 --> 00:20:32.400
Yet. I had a hard time
believing it. The doubt had been sown

255
00:20:32.519 --> 00:20:37.119
in my mind, but it was
going to be removed very soon, because

256
00:20:37.119 --> 00:20:42.559
after midnight, Nacho rose up to
walk erratically throughout the room. There was

257
00:20:42.640 --> 00:20:47.960
a time when his voice changed,
he got too thick and began to talk

258
00:20:48.000 --> 00:20:52.000
as if there was someone next to
him. I kept talking, but I

259
00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:56.240
didn' t do it out loud, but in the form of a murmur,

260
00:20:56.839 --> 00:21:00.039
because I couldn' t tell what
we were saying for a while.

261
00:21:00.079 --> 00:21:06.480
So, he came to my bed, stood aside and kept talking. I

262
00:21:06.519 --> 00:21:10.720
closed my eyes to think I was
still asleep and didn' t realize what

263
00:21:10.799 --> 00:21:15.720
I was doing. So it lasted
several minutes until he went to his bed

264
00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:21.000
and lay down to sleep. When
I was sure he had indeed fallen asleep,

265
00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:26.000
I began to think about the questions
Daniel asked me. It was at

266
00:21:26.079 --> 00:21:30.240
that moment that I became aware of
that role I put in the fire during

267
00:21:30.279 --> 00:21:37.440
the spiritual camp. I doubted very
much that such a simple act would have

268
00:21:37.440 --> 00:21:41.240
such radical consequences. I denied it
by trying to give thousands of explanations for

269
00:21:41.279 --> 00:21:45.440
my brother' s strange conduct.
The next day, Nacho got up as

270
00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:52.440
usual, held him responsible for his
duties, had breakfast and was in time

271
00:21:52.519 --> 00:21:56.200
for high school. As soon as
I could, I met with daniel I

272
00:21:56.240 --> 00:22:02.000
told him everything about my brother.
He told me that everything led him to

273
00:22:02.359 --> 00:22:07.119
think that Nacho had the devil inside, because the same thing happened to his

274
00:22:07.119 --> 00:22:11.200
cousin. It happened to her because
she played with the huija. He asked

275
00:22:11.359 --> 00:22:15.000
me if I had any idea how
that could happen to Nacho. With a

276
00:22:15.079 --> 00:22:18.759
little fear, I reminded him of
what I had done during the last night

277
00:22:18.839 --> 00:22:23.000
of the camp. Daniel, like
me, had neither the age nor the

278
00:22:23.279 --> 00:22:30.279
resources to understand what was happening to
Nacho. That' s when my friend

279
00:22:30.319 --> 00:22:33.759
said it was a possession. After
I was with Daniel, I was not

280
00:22:33.799 --> 00:22:38.079
sure what my friend had told me, but I approached my parents as soon

281
00:22:38.119 --> 00:22:44.319
as I saw Nacho fell asleep.
I went to my parents' room to

282
00:22:44.359 --> 00:22:48.799
talk to them. I told them
I thought Nacho was possessed and I was

283
00:22:48.920 --> 00:22:53.839
to blame. I explained to them
the same thing that I spoke to Daniel

284
00:22:53.920 --> 00:22:56.839
my dad in a very kind way. He told me that I was not

285
00:22:56.920 --> 00:23:02.440
responsible for what was going on with
Nacho, but what happened with Nacho had

286
00:23:02.559 --> 00:23:06.799
nothing to do with the dark.
This is how they told him in the

287
00:23:06.799 --> 00:23:11.000
congregation, not to mention his real
name. I had already talked to my

288
00:23:11.039 --> 00:23:14.920
mom and they were thinking of taking
him to a psychologist. My parents were

289
00:23:15.000 --> 00:23:19.519
very kind to me inside. I
knew something very bad was inside my brother.

290
00:23:21.480 --> 00:23:25.039
I said good night to my parents
and went to my room, the

291
00:23:25.039 --> 00:23:30.359
one I shared with Nacho. As
soon as I walked into the room,

292
00:23:30.759 --> 00:23:33.359
I sensed a strange smell. I
approached my brother and that foul smell came

293
00:23:33.599 --> 00:23:38.680
from his body. He wasn'
t that strong, but he was strong

294
00:23:38.680 --> 00:23:42.799
enough to distinguish him. That night
was the final night to realize that something

295
00:23:44.240 --> 00:23:48.839
very bad existed in Nacho. I
slept to sleep feeling a little relieved because

296
00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:52.880
my parents didn' t hold me
responsible for what happened. It was one

297
00:23:52.920 --> 00:23:59.119
of the nights I started to rest, as I did before going to camp,

298
00:24:00.359 --> 00:24:03.920
until I woke up a scream almost
fell out of bed from the impression

299
00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:10.279
received. It was Nacho who started
screaming desperately as he stood in the corner

300
00:24:10.319 --> 00:24:15.960
of the room, hitting his head. Then he turned to me and smiled

301
00:24:15.079 --> 00:24:21.599
in a disturbing way. Again,
he started screaming and hitting himself. My

302
00:24:21.640 --> 00:24:25.359
parents came in right away. It
was my dad who approached my brother.

303
00:24:26.519 --> 00:24:30.799
He took him by the arm to
take him back to bed, but Nacho

304
00:24:30.880 --> 00:24:36.200
refused to do so. He resisted
my dad' s insistence affectionately. He

305
00:24:36.279 --> 00:24:41.160
asked him to go to rest because
the next day there was school, but

306
00:24:41.240 --> 00:24:45.200
he responded with an assault he ventured
so hard that my dad fell. My

307
00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:51.799
mom tried to intervene, but she
was thrown the same way. Nacho began

308
00:24:51.839 --> 00:24:57.039
to convulse while emitting horrible grunts.
After a few minutes he calmed down and

309
00:24:57.119 --> 00:25:00.880
became unconscious. Between my pair,
Dad and I took him to his bed.

310
00:25:02.319 --> 00:25:07.640
I noticed several bruises on my stomach
and shoulders. I showed them to

311
00:25:07.680 --> 00:25:11.680
my parents. I saw the worry
and pain in his eyes. From that

312
00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:15.319
night on, my parents took the
church pastor to pray in the house.

313
00:25:18.519 --> 00:25:22.799
He started praying in every room in
the house. While he was doing so,

314
00:25:22.920 --> 00:25:26.960
he held the sacred book in his
hands. Sometimes he stopped his prayers

315
00:25:27.000 --> 00:25:33.079
to read some Bible verse that was
appropriate for the moment. When the shepherd

316
00:25:33.160 --> 00:25:37.440
entered the room in which he was
nacho. He got upset. He began

317
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:41.559
to talk about bad things to silence
the pastor’ s prayers. Since he

318
00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:47.079
failed to achieve his goal, he
began to sing. The shepherd continued to

319
00:25:47.119 --> 00:25:52.200
read God’ s word immediately,
left the room and continued in the other

320
00:25:52.240 --> 00:25:56.920
parts of the house praying. After
he finished praying, he told my parents

321
00:25:56.960 --> 00:26:02.279
that prayers needed to be reinforced to
get evil out of the house. They

322
00:26:02.319 --> 00:26:07.440
were just youthful weaknesses and everything would
pass to my brother. The pastor left

323
00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:11.079
leaving my parents alone, but I
thought that what he did was little or

324
00:26:11.240 --> 00:26:17.160
almost nothing, because I did not
notice any change in my brother. On

325
00:26:17.240 --> 00:26:22.440
the contrary, other phenomena began to
appear in it, especially at night.

326
00:26:22.200 --> 00:26:26.559
It was when my brother seemed to
become someone else, as if he were

327
00:26:26.640 --> 00:26:32.839
his double evil. I looked again
for my friend Daniel, without omitting details.

328
00:26:33.039 --> 00:26:36.440
I told him everything about him.
That' s when he suggested I

329
00:26:36.559 --> 00:26:41.240
take him to St Monica' s
Temple with Father Ceja. The priest was

330
00:26:41.279 --> 00:26:47.519
a specialist in performing exorcisms with him. They took their cousin and now she

331
00:26:47.799 --> 00:26:52.720
was freed from the devil. Every
Thursday and Saturday there was a Mass of

332
00:26:52.759 --> 00:26:56.359
healing and prayer. My friend gave
me all the details about the exorcisms he

333
00:26:56.440 --> 00:27:00.160
witnessed in the temple, as well
as the strange way his cousin acted.

334
00:27:03.039 --> 00:27:07.599
Only there was a problem. Father
Ceja was a Catholic priest. Perhaps my

335
00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:12.400
parents were not going to share the
same beliefs, so I wasn’ t

336
00:27:12.559 --> 00:27:17.240
sure if they wanted to go to
the temple. It occurred to Daniel that

337
00:27:17.279 --> 00:27:21.839
we could carry Nacho with lies,
but since we were minors, we were

338
00:27:22.200 --> 00:27:26.720
not going to be allowed to attend
alone, as the father always asked for

339
00:27:26.839 --> 00:27:32.519
an adult to be present. Mostly
in a case like Nacho' s,

340
00:27:32.680 --> 00:27:34.559
I didn' t know what to
do or who to turn to. Most

341
00:27:34.599 --> 00:27:41.359
of the family was Christian and the
one who did not practice that religion were

342
00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:45.400
atheistic relatives who did not believe in
anything. I didn' t know who

343
00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:49.880
to ask for help. When I
got home, my parents were on their

344
00:27:51.000 --> 00:27:55.119
way out. I was told you
had an appointment with a psychologist. Nacho

345
00:27:55.200 --> 00:28:00.400
was known in the congregation to commune
with his own beliefs. My parents left

346
00:28:00.400 --> 00:28:06.759
with my brother before they locked the
door. Nacho turned to say goodbye to

347
00:28:06.759 --> 00:28:10.880
me, but it wasn' t
a dice who told me, but he

348
00:28:10.960 --> 00:28:15.319
bent his face looking in a weird
way. At the same time he made

349
00:28:15.440 --> 00:28:19.079
a macabre smile. I had the
impression that it was a warning and that

350
00:28:19.160 --> 00:28:22.480
everything my parents did was not going
to be of any use. They left

351
00:28:22.559 --> 00:28:26.799
all afternoon when they arrived. The
first thing I put my attention to was

352
00:28:26.839 --> 00:28:33.319
carefully observing Nacho. I had the
vague hope that what was really going on

353
00:28:33.359 --> 00:28:38.359
was a psychological disorder and that it
was all pure speculation of mine. I

354
00:28:38.400 --> 00:28:45.119
wanted that theory to be true and
I believed it because my brother was him

355
00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:52.839
again, with his shy smile his
characteristic introversion. That night I was attentive

356
00:28:52.920 --> 00:28:57.759
to what I was doing. Nothing
happened. Nacho was quiet sleeping like he

357
00:28:57.839 --> 00:29:03.160
used to. Every once in a
while I would come up to see her

358
00:29:03.240 --> 00:29:07.359
breathing and everything seemed normal, but
I noticed something that scared me a lot.

359
00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:11.599
I saw a lump in his stomach. I gently picked up the T

360
00:29:12.680 --> 00:29:17.079
- shirt something inside his stomach.
He was moving. It was visible below

361
00:29:17.200 --> 00:29:21.000
his skin, it was the size
of a ball three centimeters in diameter.

362
00:29:22.079 --> 00:29:26.640
He would run down the stomach and
climb up to the chest. Then he

363
00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:30.039
went down his left arm. He' d come back to pass through the

364
00:29:30.039 --> 00:29:36.720
right arm. Surely I felt something
to my brother because he was complaining as

365
00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:41.400
that strange ball moved inside his body. I tried to touch her with my

366
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:45.119
finger. When I could do it, the ball was hot. I stopped

367
00:29:45.240 --> 00:29:49.440
her with my hand, but she
got bigger and my brother complained more.

368
00:29:51.839 --> 00:29:56.160
I stopped playing it so my brother
wouldn' t suffer. The next day

369
00:29:56.559 --> 00:30:00.400
I asked Daniel to help me take
my brother to that church. I'

370
00:30:00.440 --> 00:30:04.559
d ask my cousin' s wife
to join us. She always showed us

371
00:30:04.640 --> 00:30:08.680
her love. He was a great
person. Daniel and I called him on

372
00:30:08.799 --> 00:30:12.720
the phone. When I told him
the reason for my call, he was

373
00:30:12.759 --> 00:30:18.000
silent for a few minutes. He
didn' t answer anything, so I

374
00:30:18.279 --> 00:30:22.640
thought he would refuse to help us, but after thinking about it, he

375
00:30:22.720 --> 00:30:25.799
told me that he would come with
us. It was a joy for me

376
00:30:25.839 --> 00:30:30.000
to hear that it would help us. We told her we' d meet

377
00:30:30.079 --> 00:30:33.599
her the next day at the temple
of Santa Monica, at six o'

378
00:30:33.599 --> 00:30:37.000
clock in the afternoon. I only
needed to convince my brother, because at

379
00:30:37.039 --> 00:30:42.880
that point I had the impression that
he was ahead of my thoughts in advance.

380
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:48.559
I knew what I was going to
say or ask for for that time

381
00:30:48.599 --> 00:30:53.119
we were already very far apart,
we talked very little. None of them

382
00:30:53.200 --> 00:30:56.559
had confidence in each other. At
night I approached him with a little fear.

383
00:30:57.440 --> 00:31:00.880
I told him that I wanted to
take him to a special place where

384
00:31:02.519 --> 00:31:07.759
they were going to help us improve
our relationship. Nacho smiled sarcastically and told

385
00:31:07.799 --> 00:31:11.960
me not to cheat him, I
knew where I wanted to take him,

386
00:31:12.599 --> 00:31:15.880
but he was going to go just
to show me that nothing could with him.

387
00:31:17.480 --> 00:31:22.319
His answer was the clearest confirmation that
everything I believed was true, because

388
00:31:22.400 --> 00:31:27.400
sometimes I had a slight hope that
everything was my imagination, but now I

389
00:31:27.480 --> 00:31:34.799
had no doubt. I was convinced. When we arrived at the temple,

390
00:31:36.200 --> 00:31:40.480
my Aunt Anne was already waiting for
us. He greeted us warmly, while

391
00:31:40.480 --> 00:31:45.640
my brother laughed ironically. My aunt
completely ignored him and we entered the temple.

392
00:31:47.839 --> 00:31:52.000
As soon as the father went out
with the incense and began the temple

393
00:31:52.039 --> 00:31:55.200
to fill itself with the smell.
I looked at my brother' s face

394
00:31:55.200 --> 00:31:59.400
at incense. He made a repulsion
grin. Like that smell bothers him a

395
00:31:59.480 --> 00:32:02.839
lot. He also wanted out,
but I stopped him with my arm.

396
00:32:04.680 --> 00:32:07.359
Daniel stopped him, too. He
looked at us furiously and with great force.

397
00:32:07.599 --> 00:32:12.119
He got out of our arms.
My aunt realized what was going on,

398
00:32:12.279 --> 00:32:17.200
forced him to stay a few more
minutes later they would leave. Nacho

399
00:32:17.319 --> 00:32:22.359
answered him with some obsessive words that
embarrassed me. At that moment I thought

400
00:32:22.440 --> 00:32:27.799
it would all be in vain,
because my brother turned around to leave the

401
00:32:27.799 --> 00:32:31.519
temple. As he walked toward the
door, he fell to the floor and

402
00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:36.920
began to convulse, as on more
than one occasion it happened to him in

403
00:32:37.000 --> 00:32:42.240
the house, but on this occasion
he began to give a loud scream that,

404
00:32:43.039 --> 00:32:45.240
apart from noisy, was disturbing.
The priest, unalterably, continued to

405
00:32:45.400 --> 00:32:51.559
perform his rituals which, apparently,
were very effective. I realized that Father

406
00:32:51.599 --> 00:32:57.200
Ceja was more than used to seeing
such reactions. I wanted to go help

407
00:32:57.240 --> 00:33:00.759
my brother, but the priest said
not to, to leave him alone with

408
00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:07.400
his fight against evil. I was
so remorseful to see him battling the devil.

409
00:33:07.920 --> 00:33:13.759
Until the father concluded his prayers.
My brother calmed down and went unconscious.

410
00:33:14.240 --> 00:33:19.920
Father said not to worry. God
was doing his job right away.

411
00:33:20.160 --> 00:33:24.200
He gave his farewell words and the
Mass ended when the priest gave the signal

412
00:33:24.279 --> 00:33:30.559
so that we would approach our relatives
immediately. I approached Nacho. He was

413
00:33:30.599 --> 00:33:32.880
starting to react. I can'
t say what I felt. When I

414
00:33:34.000 --> 00:33:37.720
saw him it was him. Again
he asked me what was going on.

415
00:33:37.480 --> 00:33:43.039
I just told him that from now
on everything was going to be fine,

416
00:33:43.559 --> 00:33:49.599
not to worry. We leave the
Church with a feeling of satisfaction. Before

417
00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:53.240
retiring, Father Ceja said it was
not enough to attend the healing Mass on

418
00:33:53.359 --> 00:34:00.759
a single occasion. It was necessary
to go several times and, if possible,

419
00:34:00.440 --> 00:34:05.640
not stop praying for the relative.
The father didn' t want to

420
00:34:05.720 --> 00:34:10.480
mention the word possessed. He refrained
from doing so. I left the temple

421
00:34:10.519 --> 00:34:15.760
thanking my aunt and Daniel for their
support. They both told me they would

422
00:34:15.800 --> 00:34:19.840
continue to support me as long as
necessary. From the first time we went

423
00:34:19.880 --> 00:34:23.559
to the Temple of Santa Monica,
I noticed a radical change in my brother.

424
00:34:24.159 --> 00:34:28.320
I can' t say it was
okay. Since the first healing Mass.

425
00:34:29.519 --> 00:34:32.679
I still had episodes in which the
demon tried not to leave his body,

426
00:34:34.280 --> 00:34:39.000
but I realized that the divine power
was stronger than that demon. Father

427
00:34:39.039 --> 00:34:45.639
Seja told us that it could be
the demon belzebub, but it was better

428
00:34:45.719 --> 00:34:50.360
not to give it a name.
We should keep praying at home constantly and

429
00:34:50.480 --> 00:34:55.000
have a blessed rosary, as well
as a blessed crucifix. Everything the father

430
00:34:55.079 --> 00:35:00.800
told us we did. I would
lie if I said it was an easy

431
00:35:01.000 --> 00:35:07.480
process, but my brother, little
by little, was the one who was

432
00:35:07.519 --> 00:35:09.679
previously accompanied by my aunt Anna.
We told my parents what we had done.

433
00:35:10.679 --> 00:35:15.719
They were not very pleased, but
they had no choice but to accept

434
00:35:15.800 --> 00:35:21.440
what was evident. I was able
to recover my brother and also realize the

435
00:35:21.480 --> 00:35:25.239
existence of good and evil, because
I lived him in my own flesh beside

436
00:35:25.360 --> 00:35:37.480
my brother. Story written and adapted
