Can a physical body be taken over like in the movie "Skeleton Key"?

Answer 1

You might enjoy the book The Body Thief by Ann Rice which deals with the subject of switching bodies.

Answer 2

Like by another person? I don't think so.

By a spirit? Maybe, depending on what you believe about that.

spirits do exist, it says so in the bible!and unless you let them take over your body they wont.the only way for them not to is by you having god in your heart.and witch craft and worshipping satain will lead them in your home and body!!!!!!! just love god and hate them!

can i be best answer?

Answer 4

Yea, its called demon posession.

Answer 5

I would think that could happen.I never saw the movie,but,I wonder how you could get rid of the take over?

Answer 6

Only in fiction--books and movies and stuff like that.

Answer 7

I love that movie; it makes you think... The idea is that if you believe enough in it, it will happen. I personally don't believe that these "powers" can have control over someone. I think that if someone believes enough in something  they will cause it to happen... like the placebo effect for instance.

Answer 8

Scarily, yes. By possession of a demon or evil spirit. There are actual psychologists who have helped in the field to determine as a second opinion whether the person is suffering from mental illness or otherworldly influences.

Answer 9

It makes for a good story.I wasn't crazy about that movie.No it can't happen in real life.Many silly people foolishly believe it can.That's really scary,I think.
