The demonic spell on Deborah Logan is a haunting and chilling story that revolves around the main character, Deborah Logan. Deborah is a woman suffering from Alzheimer's disease, which progressively worsens over time. However, it becomes clear that her condition is not solely caused by a natural illness, but rather a demonic possession. The movie "The Taking of Deborah Logan" explores the idea of demonic possession in a unique way, using the lens of Alzheimer's disease to add layers of complexity and fear. As Deborah's mental state deteriorates, she begins to exhibit strange and terrifying behavior, including violent outbursts and speaking in different languages. At first, her loved ones attribute these actions to the progression of her disease, but as the story unfolds, it becomes evident that something more sinister is at play.
Exorcisms might seem daunting to someone who doesn’t know how much money the beauty industry pulls in on our insecurities. Also, it takes forever to get ready to go out even in a good year. But, exorcisms usually require wearing comfy clothes and laying in bed. Those are two things I excel at and try to do everyday anyway. There’s something inspiring about watching a woman look like hell and still have the self-esteem to have people come over so that you can demand their attention. Then when she has their attention read them to filth in front of their cute little friend groups. Alicia Keys can talk a big game about not wearing make-up. Beyoncé wants us to think she woke up like that. However, true queens know a housecoat and the willingness to throw all tea and shade while laying on your back is what true fashion is. Roll me and this oversized t-shirt down the runway, because I’ve taken the notes for all of us. I present, 6 Exorcisms That Brought Those Boys To The Yard.
While they probably wouldn t listen to her, they will definitely give a demon murdering their crew the attention and respect most women don t get when we come in with conflict resolution. When placed in the right order and entered onto the official Blair Witch web page, it played an additional scene of the film and entered the user onto a special list denoting that one had solved the puzzle.
At first, her loved ones attribute these actions to the progression of her disease, but as the story unfolds, it becomes evident that something more sinister is at play. The main idea revolves around the presence of a demonic entity that has taken control of Deborah's body and mind.

Hidden Images Increase Scares in Deborah Logan
The Taking of Deborah Logan is a very impressive horror film that snuck its way onto Netflix this October. If you haven’t seen it, please do. It’s a terrifying tale of a woman with dimensia haunted by something unworldly. The film has almost gained instant cult status as I haven’t heard this much buzz about a film on Netflix since Tucker and Dale vs. Evil. The film deserved a full theatrical release, but, alas…we get what we get, right?
If you look closely in certain scenes, however, you may notice something. Take, for example, the scene where Deborah (Jill Larson) is found upstairs in the attic. For a brief moment…there’s something. Pause the film at 37:51 and you will see this:
Later on (during a pivotal scene involving the fireplace), this appears:
Both images strongly foreshadow one of the final (and most memorable) scenes of the film. They’re unnerving, and may be responsible for the success the film has had. After all, horror is not being haunted by what we see and know…It’s what we see out of the corner of our eye.
Director Adam Robitel is not the first to include subliminal images onto film – if he really did. The film may be haunted. I caught up with co-writer Gavin Heffernan and his official stance is “Probably best if we don’t comment”. It’s actually been very popular in film throughout the years, and is very effective in creating atmosphere.
In 1960, Alfred Hitchcock agreed to do the television program Alfred Hitchcock Presents in return for Paramount Studios funding a little film called Psycho. Psycho became a classic, and has many iconic scenes…and two of those scenes include subliminal images. The shower scene stabbing is the most iconic, and it contains 3 frames of the knife stabbing in an upward motion. According to reports, Marion’s shower was a baptism and at that moment she “forgiven for her sins” and “pure”…almost virgin-like. The upward stabbing motion makes her death even more tragic as (not only is she being murdered) but her “virginity” is being taken as well. In the final scene of the film, Norman’s face is superimposed with both Marion’s car and his mother’s face.
In 1973, The Exorcist terrified horror fans all over the world…and it did it with the help of “Captain Howdy”. Captain Howdy is the name that young Regan gave to Pazuzu (the demon that eventually possesses her). Captain Howdy flashes across the screen quite a few times in the film unprovoked. The director has claimed these images did not exist, but home video has proved otherwise.
While The Blair Witch Project managed to scare its audiences with a horrifying finale, its sequel never seemed to capture the magic that the first one had. But, it had quite an interesting “game” to it. Throughout the film, hidden words can be found for split seconds. When placed in the right order and entered onto the official Blair Witch web page, it played an additional scene of the film and entered the user onto a special list (denoting that one had solved the puzzle).
The teaser trailer for 1-18-08 (later known as Cloverfield) premiered before Transformers in theaters and ignited many imaginations. Hell, I had never even heard of an ARG before that film, and now I just wish films would do more. In Cloverfield, a giant deep sea monster attacks New York City. Throughout the film, clips of various Paramount films depicting monsters showed briefly.
If you’re looking for some interesting reading (and some more examples regarding both subliminal images and marketing), just Google the term. I tried to focus on horror films, but Disney films are ripe with images like these. So are many classics that we don’t even realize.
Viewers are constantly left on edge, unsure of what will happen next as they delve deeper into the mystery of the demonic spell. The demonic possession aspect of the story is further amplified by the use of religious imagery and rituals. Exorcisms and prayers are performed in an attempt to free Deborah from the clutches of the demon, adding a sense of desperation and urgency to the narrative. The inclusion of these elements serves to heighten the terror and give the audience a glimpse into the dark and supernatural world that is at play. Overall, "The Taking of Deborah Logan" is a gripping and unsettling horror film that explores the theme of demonic possession in a unique and captivating manner. It delves into the horrors of Alzheimer's disease and the terrifying potential for a person's mind and body to become a vessel for evil forces. The movie stands as a chilling reminder that not all illnesses have a natural explanation and serves as an example of how horror can be used to explore complex themes and emotions..

- Sarah M. - 2/5 stars - I was excited to watch "The Demonic Spell on Deborah Logan" as I enjoy supernatural horror films, but I was ultimately left disappointed. The storyline had potential, but the execution was poor. The pacing was slow, and there were too many unnecessary and repetitive scenes. Additionally, the characters lacked depth and development, making it hard to connect with them. While the ending had a few redeeming qualities, it wasn't enough to salvage the overall lackluster experience.
- Michael B. - 2/5 stars - As a fan of found footage films, I was eager to see "The Demonic Spell on Deborah Logan." However, I found it to be another disappointing addition to the genre. The shaky camera work was excessive and made it difficult to follow the action. The scares were cheap and relied heavily on jump scares rather than building genuine tension. The characters also made questionable choices that were frustrating and took away from the overall believability of the story. Overall, it failed to deliver a truly frightening or compelling experience.
