In a since-viral video shared on social media circles last November 8, a Palawan State University (PSU) student from the College of Engineering, Architecture, and Technology (CEAT) can be seen incoherently screaming and behaving in an erratic way, including nearly hurling a chair, at a certain classroom in the new Architecture building.

The video also showed someone who appears to be a teacher instructing her classmates to assist the distressed student. She also offered a prayer for the young woman. In response, the classmates approached the weeping student.

She was seen too being embraced by her classmates while she continued to cry, shout, and at times, even burst into loud laughter. One individual approached her also, praying and asking for God’s help, as she continued to scream.

While speculations related to supernatural possession abound amongst professors and students, others point to a lack of a formal blessing to the aforementioned building, insufficient rest and nourishment, and the heavy workload those in the BS Architecture program are currently shouldering as probable causes.

I pointed out that demon possessions are BS in the other place and one guy told me that he literally saw a woman on her back knock a bunch of people around and speak like a demon as proof that it's true.

Well, first of all, it's "trust me bro". Secondly, you're theoretically stronger while on your back. You can kick people a lot harder, shove, throw them. Talking in a deep voice and chanting gibberish is also very doable. Unless your proof is that she can fly in the air and turn her head 360 degrees, I don't think any of the feats you mentioned are out of the ordinary. If I were you, I'd hide. Baka makita ka ni Digong, naghahanap ng mga naka-drags yun.
