Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson recently made a startling claim about a personal encounter that left him physically injured and shaken. According to Carlson, he was “physically mauled” by a demon in his own bed, an attack that he says resulted in bleeding and claw marks. This revelation, which Carlson describes as a “transformative experience,” comes as he prepares to feature in a documentary titled Christianities? where he recounts this chilling encounter.
In a preview of the documentary shared on YouTube, Carlson spoke with John Heers, of the non-profit First Things Foundation, who questioned him about his views on the presence of evil in the world. Carlson then shared a vivid description of the assault he experienced a year and a half ago, detailing that the attack occurred while he was asleep at home with his wife and their four dogs.
A Terrifying Encounter in the Night
Carlson described how he was asleep when he suddenly awoke to severe pain and difficulty breathing. Disoriented, he recounted walking outside in confusion, only to return inside and discover painful claw marks under his arms and on his shoulder, injuries he says were “bleeding” when he inspected them in the bathroom mirror. According to Carlson, none of his family members or even his dogs, known to be light sleepers, had stirred during the incident.
“Totally confused,” Carlson said he turned on the lights, revealing four parallel claw marks beneath his arms and on his left shoulder. Carlson’s assistant, an evangelical Christian, suggested that people being attacked in their beds by demons is not unheard of. This comment, Carlson revealed, piqued his interest in exploring the Bible, which he says he’s since been drawn to read intensively.
A New Path and Public Persona
Following his departure from Fox News in the wake of the network’s $787 million settlement with Dominion Voting Systems, Carlson has since aligned himself closely with Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign. At a recent rally in Georgia, Carlson spoke to a crowd of Trump supporters, likening Trump’s potential return to the White House to a father returning home to discipline his children.
Using provocative language, Carlson assured the crowd that Trump would give America a “vigorous spanking,” characterizing Trump as a disappointed father ready to impose discipline on the nation. “He’s not vengeful,” Carlson told supporters. “He loves his children… But he’s very disappointed in their behavior.”
Whether this encounter with the supernatural has influenced Carlson’s perspectives remains to be seen. However, the former news host’s description of the incident continues to attract widespread attention as the story circulates. With claims of a demon attack leaving him both physically marked and spiritually curious, Carlson’s journey into the unknown has left many intrigued and puzzled.
