THE DEMON MURDER CASE
The True Story of Arne Johnson, Demonic Possession, Exorcism, and the Devil Made Me Do It

What if the darkness tormenting a child did not leave him alone—but followed someone else?
In 1980, twelve-year-old David Glatzel began experiencing terrifying events that his family struggled to explain. He spoke of a frightening figure, suffered disturbing episodes, and appeared to be caught in a nightmare that no one around him could stop.
Desperate for answers, the family turned to paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren. What followed were accounts of alleged demonic possession, terrifying manifestations, and attempts to drive the supposed entity away through religious rituals.
Then David's sister's boyfriend, Arne Johnson, reportedly made a chilling offer: take him instead.
According to those who believed the possession story, something changed after that moment. David began to recover, while Arne allegedly started behaving differently. Months later, a violent confrontation ended with the death of Alan Bono, turning a frightening tale of alleged supernatural activity into a shocking criminal case.
But the most extraordinary part was yet to come.
Arne Johnson's defense raised a question few courtrooms had ever confronted: could demonic possession explain a murder?
The case became infamous as the “Devil Made Me Do It” murder case, drawing public attention to the alleged haunting of David Glatzel, the reported exorcism attempts, the Warrens' involvement, and a defense that challenged the boundaries between supernatural belief and criminal responsibility. The judge rejected demonic possession as a legal defense, and Johnson was ultimately convicted of first-degree manslaughter.
Yet the verdict did not settle every question surrounding the story.
Was David truly experiencing something supernatural? Did Arne believe an unseen force had taken control of him? Was the alleged transfer of a demonic presence a genuine experience, a mistaken interpretation, or a story shaped by fear and belief?
In The Demon Murder Case, Dipesh Piplani explores one of America's most disturbing and controversial stories of alleged demonic possession, exorcism, and murder. From the first frightening experiences reported by a young boy to the desperate rituals, the fatal confrontation, and the courtroom battle, this is a chilling journey into a case where the supernatural entered the discussion of a very real crime.
Read the story behind the headlines—and enter a mystery where the evidence could be examined, the verdict could be delivered, but the darkest questions remained.
Because the court could decide a man's fate. But could it explain what had happened in the darkness?
