Obviously, I found this sight, as I was searching for others with similar experiences. I’m a 44yr old, Roman Catholic woman. I was raised with and retain an enormous faith in the Holy Trinity, the Holy Family, and the Angels and Saints. Aside from this, I’m not a “Holy Roller” and I’ve committed more than my allotted number of sins(if there were a given number, which would be helpful!). I’m married to a lovely man,for 20 years, and we’re raising two tolerable(!)teens,whom we’re wild about. The first “unholy dream” I had: I was 18yrs old, a virgin, and between wakefulness and sleep. I was overtaken by a handsome figure, that actually seemed to be wooing me. I became relaxed and trusting, as if I knew this man (but I didn’t), and he commenced having sex with me. I had never had relations, beyond very chaste kissing, and yet I experienced a complete sexual encounter. I knew it wasn’t a dream, yet I wasn’t completely awake, as I couldn’t fend off the attack. A few months later, I had a similar encounter, but as a man began to overtake me, I prayed to Jesus Christ to defend me. The man immediately disappeared. I put these dreams aside, but always continued to pray against evil encounters. Five years later,when I was going through a very sad point with my family and myself, I found myself in an affair with a married man (something I still can’t fathom). We’d been out having fun and ended up at a motel, for the first time. Shortly after falling asleep (or so it seemed), I awakened to a knocking at the hotel room door. I was startled and tried to awaken my companion, but to no avail. The knocking had ceased, so I thought I’d dreamt it. I tried to fall back to sleep, when the knocking happened again and I was fully awake. I didn’t get out of bed and tried to ignore it. Then I heard many, whispery, yet discernable, voices from outside: “The Whore won’t answer”, “Come Whore”, “Open the door, Whore”, and far more obscene chantings. I was overwhelmingly frightened, when it occurred to me, even in the midst of sin, to invoke the name of Jesus Christ. The silence was immediate. Naturally, that affair ended and I went to Confession, but over the years, as I’ve been working to amend my ways, I continue to suffer from equally horrific encounters. I spend entire nights fighting off demons, through prayer; always realizing that invoking the Holy Names will work, but none the less terrifying. While, I’ve become used to this and have discovered that one of my brothers has been experiencing similar experiences, I became concerned this evening, when my 15 year old daughter mentioned similar dreams. I told her to pray and have complete faith in Jesus Christ and his Holy Mother’s protection. My discomfort is in trying to explain these unholy experiences to her tomorrow. Holy Trinity, Bless and Protect Us All, In the Name of Jesus Christ Our Lord. Thank You!
