Responding to a 700 Club viewer who asked today if watching a horror movie caused her to get into a car accident, Pat Robertson said that viewing horror films and x-rated videos could result in curses or demonic possession.

“A few years ago I heard about a teenage girl who was demon possessed, and people began to deal with the demon and try to cast it out. And you know what the demon said? ‘I had permission.’ And the permission was granted when this child had gone to some double-X-rated movie, or whatever it was, and had allowed this thing to come into her.”

While he said he didn’t know if the viewer herself is possessed, he said he had heard similar stories about movies leading people to become possessed by demons.

He also suggested that movie producers are susceptible to Satanic influences, which cause them to make such films.

"This thing may be living around you and what you need to do is speak it — command this thing to leave — and ask God to forgive you."
