a. repressed personality is coming to the surface,
b. that the voodoo trance is an act to impress a crowd,
c. it stems from hysterical nervous disorders, and
d. it stems from psychopathy, neurosis, or schizophrenia
a. In Haiti, demon possession of people can not be a repressed
personality because the person being possessed of a demon must
behave according to rigorous rules of how each demon is supposed
to act. Far from expressing himself, the victim of demon possession
tries to personify some mythical spirit whose character on the
whole is foreign to himself.
b. In Haiti, most people who go into the demon possessed state are
not observed closely because it is the norm for people to become
demon possessed. People at the ceremonies may cast absentminded
looks at the people being possessed, but the entire scenario gains
the possessed person very little attention. Nor does an entire crowd
in Haitian Voodoo get possessed, or go into a collective delirium.
The excitement is quite varied with the crowds.
c. If explanation c. were true, it would mean an entire nation is
hysterical and mentally deranged. 40 years ago it was shown that
the Haitian people are not all hysterical, but that demon possession
in Haiti was the normal means of communicating with supernatural
powers. If demon possession trances were genetic in origin, then
why do some groups of blacks from the same gene pool but living
in other nations have absolutely little to do with the occult?
d. Investigators in Haiti have had to discount demon possession as a
neurosis. According to one investigator the number of
schizophrenics and psychotics is very small within cults like
Voodoo. "Here the very marked lack of response to the cathartic
therapies employed in possession cults in the case of seriously
disturbed individuals...is itself a testimony to the robust mental
health of the majority of participants....The latter have no difficulty
at all in communicating their problems. They operate within a
culturally standardized medium of communication. Nor in contrast
