The Pazuzu Explored - Most Nefarious Ancient Evil Has Terrifying Roots - Exorcist Monster

The timeless horror classic The Exorcist has subjected many to nightmares, jump scares, and impromptu surges in faith in God after watching it because of all the lore and spooky tales revolving around the film and all that’s going on in the movie. Everyone is terrified of the Devil from the film, fearing that he might jump out of the screen and possess the person next to them. But that’s just it. The antagonist of the film wasn’t the Devil. In fact, the Devil wasn’t even there! The real antagonist was the eldritch demon of the underworld, Pazuzu. While the film shows, a glimpse of this demon, history, and legend suggests otherwise. Pazuzu was one of the coldest, most calculative evil monsters of the Mesopotamian civilization known to have dominion over the sky.

In this video, we talk about Pazuzu’s origins, the mythology behind the Prince of the Demons, his followers in the modern-day, and the historically famous Amulet of Pazuzu found in the Sumerian text. Let’s begin, shall we?
