Tucker Carlson, in a clip from the movie ‘Christianities?’, describes when he was mauled by a demon In the clip, Carlson was asked by documentarian John Heers of the First Things Foundation whether he thought “the presence of evil is kickstarting people to wonder about the good?” “That’s what happened to me. And I got attacked while I was asleep with my wife and four dogs and mauled, physically mauled.” After saying he was attacked by a “demon” he then said: “Or by something unseen that left claw marks on my sides.” Carlson said the marks are still there a year and a half later. The former Fox News host says she told him: “That happens, people are attacked in their bed by demons.” Carlson went on to say he was “seized with this very intense desire to read the Bible” which he describes as a “transformative experience”.
