Summary

Saint John Vianney wasn’t a movie character. He was a real Catholic priest who spent his life hearing confessions, fighting for souls and enduring terrifying spiritual attacks that witnesses around him claimed were demonic. His room shook at night. Furniture moved. His bed was even set on fire. But what terrified hell most wasn’t him.. it was what happened in the confessional.
