Fictional Fantasy - The Truth

Fantasy is no longer just a form of entertainment — it has become a deeply immersive experience that shapes how we think, feel, and even believe. These alternate worlds may appear harmless or imaginative on the surface, but they can reach far deeper than we realize, impacting not just the mind, but the soul.

Scripture warns us in Ephesians 6:12 that, “We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world…” When we consume entertainment centered on sorcery, demonic powers, or communication with spirits, we are not simply reading a book or playing a game. We are engaging — mentally, emotionally, and spiritually — with occult ideologies. This isn’t just fiction. It’s a form of spiritual agreement.

Games, shows, or stories that glamorize spellcasting, spirit summoning, or embodying dark characters blur the line between the imagination and spiritual reality. Though our bodies remain passive, our minds and spirits can become active participants. It is a kind of vicarious participation — living through a character or scenario. Although our physical bodies are not participating in darkness, our soul and spirit are. If we did not enjoy participating in these occult entertainment outlets, why are we? And if we are enjoying ourselves, surely we must be in agreement. And if we are in agreement with the occult - we should anticipate occult spirits joining us. Occult spirits use fantasy entertainment to live vicariously through us without our knowing.

Just as watching pornography defiles the heart without physical engagement, engaging in fantasy worlds centered around the occult opens spiritual doorways — even if you're just holding a controller or turning pages in a book. Demonic forces don’t require physical rituals; they look for mental and spiritual agreement. When you agree with the role of a sorcerer, summon spirits, or sing songs inviting the unknown, you're not just playing — you're aligning. When you put images of dragons or sorcery on your walls for decoration - you are agreeing.

The Bible explicitly forbids any involvement in witchcraft, sorcery, or spirit communication (Deuteronomy 18:10–12). These warnings exist because the spiritual realm is not make-believe. It is real. It responds to agreement. That agreement doesn’t always come from spoken words or actions — it comes from what we internalize, accept, admire, and align with.

The Subtle Trap

One of the greatest dangers of fantasy entertainment is how it slowly desensitizes us. What once would have shocked or convicted a believer — like sacrificing a soul or summoning a demon — becomes just part of the plot. What should be repulsive becomes normal. What should be rejected becomes entertaining. And the occult becomes desirable.

The enemy works through subtlety. He doesn't need you to openly worship darkness — he just needs you to admire it. Like Eve in the garden, many are led astray through twisted truths and appealing lies, packaged in beautiful stories with captivating characters and emotional depth. But behind the fantasy, there is a spiritual reality — and it is dangerous.

Guard Your Soul

Proverbs 4:23 commands us: “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.” As followers of Christ, we are called to be set apart — not entertained by the very things that wage war against God’s Kingdom.

If you or your children are engaged with media that glorifies the occult, demonic forces, or rebellion against God, take it seriously. Repentance shuts the door. Jesus brings freedom. Not all fantasy is evil, but not all fantasy is spiritually safe. This isn’t about being overly religious — it’s about recognizing that what we engage with mentally and emotionally can spiritually mark us. The spirit realm is governed by agreement. What you admire, you invite. What you roleplay, you align with. What you consent to — even subtly — becomes the legal ground for spiritual influence. There is no such thing as a "good witch" or a "noble sorcerer" in the eyes of God. No matter how beautiful the animation or how epic the soundtrack, evil remains evil.

For example, Disney's Frozen song “Show Yourself” may seem harmless, but it mimics demonic summoning — invoking unknown spirits, asking them to reveal themselves, inviting them into the heart, and seeking identity and grow with them.

These themes echo ancient occult rituals. Whether it's Harry Potter casting spells or Game of Thrones portraying necromancy, the spirit world doesn’t care if you think it’s fiction. It reacts to belief and agreement — and Satan operates on legality, not sentiment. "I didn’t mean to" is not a valid defense in the spiritual realm.

A Final Word

You don’t need to join a cult to come under spiritual influence. Mental consent is enough. Engaging with darkness through fantasy opens doors to deception, bondage, and confusion. You may not be physically attending Hogwarts or riding dragons, but if you’re mentally immersed in occult fantasies, you are spiritually consenting to their power structures.

Every agreement matters.
Every belief invites influence.


Choose wisely.
Your soul, and your family's, are worth far more than your entertainment.
