Tucker Carlson details in a recently published video interview a violent encounter with a demon while he was resting in bed—an event that inspired him to purchase a Bible, which he claims he has read and reread since.
“That was a life-changing event. I mauled after being attacked in sleep with my wife and four dogs curled up in the bed. Physically assaulted by a demon or by something invisible leaving claw scars on my sides, the esteemed podcast host revealed.
Carlson also mentioned that the marks on his sides are still clearly evident, one and a half years later.
“I got up.” I found it difficult to breathe. I felt I was going to choke, he said. “I had these horrible aches in my shoulder and rib cage.”
Carlson said he went to a toilet, switched on the lights, and discovered “four claw marks on either side, underneath my arms and on my left shoulder.” He was attempting to piece together what had happened. And they were bleeding as well.
“I come from a world in which such events do not occur. He stressed, “I never heard of anything like that happening before.” Still, he said, “I knew it was spiritual immediately.”
“I’m not from a faith tradition that talks about things like that or even acknowledges their existence,” Carlson said. In my whole life, nobody has said anything like that. When I woke up the next morning, I realized the dream was the strangest one I had ever had. Then I discovered it was not at all a dream when I found blood on my bedding.
Carlson claimed thereafter he was “seized with this very intense desire to read the Bible, which I then started without any study aids or anything.”
“So, I spent a year and a half reading it, and then I started re-reading it, and it was just a transformative experience for me.”
Nobody is obliged to believe me. I not give a damn, Carlson remarked. Nonetheless, that happened to me.
Rod Dreher, an Orthodox Christian and author of the “Benedict Option,” quickly confirmed Carlson’s story on the X platform.
“Tucker Carlson has gone public with the news that he was physically attacked by a demon,” Dreher noted. “This is true. He shared with me a year ago. Terrifying stuff.”

Earlier this year, Carlson reached another career milestone, more than a year after his former employer unceremoniously dropped him despite having the network’s top-rated program.
Carlson’s podcast has soared to the No. 1 spot on Spotify, surpassing “The Joe Rogan Experience” at the time, which had previously held the top spot on the platform for years. In 2020, Rogan signed a $200 million, three-and-a-half-year exclusivity deal with Spotify.
In an appearance on the Lex Fridman podcast in late February, Carlson said he discovered that U.S. intelligence agencies were monitoring his phone calls and electronic messages ahead of his trip to interview Russian President Vladimir Putin, adding that he was told the administration would have him arrested if he gave Putin a “softball interview.”
The intel agencies, of course, work under the direction of the president — in this case, Joe Biden.
Here’s a portion of their conversation:
LEX FRIDMAN: So, the NSA was tracking you, do you think CIA was? Do you think people still tracking you?
So I talked to two people who would know, trust me. And that’s all I can say. And I, I hate to be like, “Oh, I talk to people who know.” But I mean, they would know, and both of them said exactly the same thing, which is, “Are you joking? Nothing is secure. Everything is monitored all the time.” If state actors are involved. I mean, you can keep the Malaysian mafia from reading your texts probably, you can not keep the big intel services from reading your texts. It’s not possible, any of them. Or listening to your calls.
So, and that was the firm conclusion of people who’ve been involved in it for a long time, decades, in both cases. So I just thought, you know what? I don’t care. I don’t care.
LEX FRIDMAN: You say it lightly, but it’s really troublesome that, as a journalist, you would be tracked.
TUCKER CARLSON: Well, they leaked it to Semafor and they leaked it to the New York Times.
