00:00:02 Narrator: DEMONS... EVIL SPIRITS STRAIGHT FROM HELL.

00:01:58 IS FROM THE "ALIENS" FILMS,

00:03:44 IT COULD ALSO BE ANYWHERE.

00:05:38 AT CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY IN ENGLAND,

00:07:18 COMPARATIVE ANATOMIST DR. JOY REIDENBERG INVESTIGATES.

00:08:46 HOW ELSE COULD YOU LET AN EVIL SPIRIT OUT?

00:10:38 WELL, WHAT WE GOT UP HERE IS A CARVING OF THE APOSTLE JOHN,

00:12:34 YOU MIGHT FORCE THE POSSESSED PERSON

00:14:23 IN FUELING THE HYSTERIA AROUND DEMONS.

00:15:53 AND ONCE YOU'D STUFFED THE BEAK,

00:21:25 IN THE 16th CENTURY, PEOPLE FEARED THAT DEMONS

00:23:53 THEY MAINLY PREYED ON SINGLE WOMEN,

00:25:39 BUT WITCHES WERE ALSO BLAMED FOR DESTROYING WHOLE CROPS,

00:27:35 FROM THEN ON, KING JAMES PERSECUTED WITCHES IN SCOTLAND

00:29:20 SHE GREW A LARGE WART ON HER BODY CALLED A WITCH'S TEAT.

00:30:44 BECAUSE IT'S SOMETHING THAT A WITCH COULD USE TO NURSE

00:32:35 CORN SYRUP REPRESENTS MEN

00:34:28 SUBSIDED ACROSS ENGLAND.
