The Possessed

*The Possessed* is a term often used to describe individuals believed to be experiencing a loss of control due to supernatural forces, such as spirits or demons, affecting their minds or bodies. It can also refer to psychological conditions where a person acts in ways that seem beyond their usual personality, sometimes linked to mental health issues. In literature and film, it typically depicts a character under an external, malevolent influence that causes unsettling or harmful behavior. The concept explores themes of unseen forces impacting human agency, blurring the line between mental health, spirituality, and the supernatural.
