There was also an attempted possession on one member of the family. It was a scenario where the initial diabolic activity of infestation was completely bypassed and the demons moved into the second stage, oppression. As a consequence, several demons were unleashed upon her and her family terrorizing everyone in the process. The first case, The Halloween Horror, is also the first case in Beware The Night and it revealed how the demonic deceived a young teenage girl into "playing" with the ouija board at a party.
