A Children's Book of Demons

This is aimed at kids of coloring book age. That's getting them into the dark at the most impressionable age. And Paul, you are soooo right....it's mainstream now and gaining a deep foothold.
 
Maybe this stuff becoming more mainstream is the reason we hear more and more about shadow people, and Hatmen.

Possible, drawing or coloring or concentrating on their versions could be a poltergeist or tulpa effect....maybe....

Absolutely, yes. The fact they are innocents would be like a fresh food feast for the dark. Bottom line, this is soooo wrong. Any parent that purchases this for kid should not have kids.
 
Unfortunately, there are TONS of idiotic parents out there, who don't even stop to think about what trend they are jumping on, and what they are exposing their children to. It makes me both sad and mad. We shall have to continue being Warriors of light, and pray for those who are misguided enough to think that this is just a harmless children's toy.
 
Clueless parents,wide eyed kids and "A Childrens Book of Demons" sounds a bad combo to me.What's next"Childrens Guide to Suicide".At least I know what to get Damien for Chrissy.I think there is enough doom and gloom in the World with the poor young kids unsure of even having an inhabitable planet in the not too distant future.A true disgrace.

Awful it’s sacrificing our children without the alter and flames. Its the past resurfacing. The negative behind this has always been the same entity. I won’t give him the honor of naming.
 
I get what the author was trying to do but the execution was a complete disaster. Take out the sigils and refer to these creatures and monsters and not demons, and it would have been a much better product. With that approach, if anything, they could have made a coloring book that would help ease children with fears of monsters under the bed or in the closet by giving the concept of monsters a more comical image.

But to make demon summoning seem fun, it will only lead to serious problems in the future. Sure, these "demons" are fictional but with no information about the dangers of real demons, kids will grow up thinking it's nothing more than a goof. They then try summoning real demons, thinking that if they follow the summoning directions properly everything will be fine. And these types of people will not understand how deceitful and manipulative demons are and everyone, including the summoner, will become a targeted victim.

The unfortunate thing is a lot, if not all, those that would see this as a perfectly harmless book, are those they do not believe the paranormal exists, and it's only after something is unleashed into their home will they realize how serious such a paranormal act can be. Even if it isn't something malevolent, a spike in blatant paranormal activity especially for non-believers can be terrifying. And the problem sometimes is that people may only understand and believe the dangers when it's too late and they're now facing paranormal problems (like non-believers messing with Ouija boards thinking it's just a thrill game).

If anyone who bought this book ends up conjuring something malevolent in their lives in the future, I feel sorry for them because such a situation can be highly traumatic, but at the same time I won't feel sorry for them because the amount of evidence and testimonies related to such cases is so abundant, and this might be the only way they realize the potential dangers of the paranormal and learn to stay away from things they don't understand or can't control.

Exorcists Slam 'Demonic' Children's Book - Coast to Coast AM

A group of exorcists are sounding the alarm over a children's book that teaches youngsters to summon demons. The troubling tome, titled A Children's Book of Demons, was published back in July, but only captured the public's attention a few weeks ago when Walmart began selling the book. As one can imagine, this sparked a considerable outcry online from people concerned about exposing kids to the proverbial dark arts, despite the fact that the 'spells' contained in the book are fictional and center around things like avoiding chores or besting bullies.

The furor surrounding the book has now reached all the way to Rome by way of a scathing statement from an organization known as the International Association of Exorcists. Group president Father Francesco Bamonte wrote on their website that "you don't mess around with demons. Whoever invites a child to summon a demon is like a person who puts a grenade in their hands to play with. Sooner or later the child will pull the pin and the bomb will explode in their hands."

Bamonte specifically took issue with how the book presents a number of symbols that children are encouraged to draw in order to summon different demons. According to the exorcist, these sigils are remarkably similar to the ones found in genuine magical manuals, known as grimoires. As such, Bamonte chastised the book's author for "simplifying a grimoire as much as possible" and "transforming it into a fun game: the demonic seals act as a 'telephone number,' to contact the spirits of evil."

Ultimately, the exorcist lamented that the book represents the latest development in what he sees as a gradual "project" aimed at making demonic entities more palatable to the public and, eventually, culminating with "the explicit proposal to worship the devil." While Bamonte's lament may have merit, one can't help but imagine that the publishers of the book are probably thrilled at all the free publicity his group is giving to the 'demonic' guide.
