Demons Among Us: The RFT paid a visit to America's foremost demonologist in Chesterfield and came home with our head spinning

Late one night last spring, William Bradshaw sat nervously in his study in Chesterfield waiting to make his media debut as a demonologist. A radio host in either Maine or Oregon — he can't remember which — was scheduled to call to discuss Bradshaw's new book, Sinister Among Us, a novel about hunting demons on a college campus.

It had been 47 years since Bradshaw first began his research of evil spirits that shatter human lives. Then, as now, an entire wall of his home office was lined with neatly arranged books on biblical scholarship. There, too, were two leather-bound copies of his Ph.D. thesis from Scotland's University of St. Andrews titled Demonology in the Old Testament and Hebrew Scriptures.

Bradshaw had prepared for that night's interview by sitting at his desk, making careful notes about the role of demons in the Bible and the more practical aspects of demonic possession and exorcism.
