About this listen

Tonight, Bishop James Long explores the mysterious case of Sister Maria Crocifissa della Concezione, a 31-year-old nun from the convent of Palma di Montechiaro in Sicily.
On August 11, 1676, Sister Maria was discovered collapsed on the floor of her cell, her face smeared with ink, clutching a cryptic letter composed of strange symbols and indecipherable characters.
According to historical accounts, she claimed the letter was dictated by the devil himself—an attempt to sway her from her devotion to God and lure her toward darkness.
