Use the story if you wish……..of course, keep my name, etc., out of the story….

I recently picked up a female passenger while Ubering. I drive like many for a part time job.
+
I recently heard your podcast and you mentioned St. Michael the Archangel and your past dreams sensing something terribly evil.
+
I frequently invoke St Michael to protect me while driving, from any problems, accidents or situations. I keep the St. Michael prayer taped to my bathroom mirror in my home.
As I recently pulled up to the restaurant while Ubering, I noticed a middle-aged woman looking at her phone. I presumed it was her who had requested the ride.
+
I opened my window like usual, and said “hello” are you “Becca.”
+
She said yes, and got into the back seat. Just a normal ride to this point.
+
No less than 1 minute into the ride, she said out of the blue and in a very calm, and composed voice “do you find me physically attractive?” I then looked in my mirror at her face. As you can imagine, I panicked and calmed myself to come up with a response. I did not want to say “yes” or “no,” not knowing what would come next from my response.
+
After a few seconds, I responded something to the fact that she was a “pleasant” looking person. In reality, she was a very pretty middle-aged woman. Slim, trim and well dressed.
+
What made this so unusual were her eyes. They were very dark and captivating. I only glanced for a second and I immediately felt a spiritual “draining.” I spiritually began to panic.
+
I quickly looked away and would not look at her again. I felt a demonic presence sitting in my back seat. I felt if I looked at her again, I would be looking at something evil and powerful. I have given rides to several drunk females(and males) passengers in the past, and have never had this kind of spiritual fear. Annoying passengers that talk silly and that smell like alcohol, but not a evil presence that was spiritual in nature.
+
Several years ago, I had a similar experience with a young man who had very dark eyes. He approached me while leaving adoration and asked me to drive him some thirty miles down the road. A total stranger. What scared me were his eyes. Once again, they were very dark. I felt spiritual fear talking to him, like he was draining my will power the longer I communicated with him. I felt doom and gloom awaited me. I then said I had to leave, and went on with my day. It was strange. It was not easy to say no to his request, his eyes were so draining of my will power. I later on talked to a priest about this event because it was so upsetting.
+
Well, this is how I felt with my female Uber passenger. She continued to talk and everything was negative. She said she was an alcoholic, and her boyfriend abused her. Next, her dad hated her and she hated him. Everything that she said was dark, but also in a very controlled and calm voice. That is what made it so powerful. A rationale person would not say such things to a stranger, without sounding drunk, etc.
+
I kept my composure and kept trying to change the subject to get the ride completed which was about five miles away. At the end of the ride, she asked if she could “hug me.” I said no.
+
After the ride, I quickly called my wife. I was so upset of what happened. It was a spiritual fear that I had an encounter with an evil presence, and not simply a drunk passenger that was overly friendly.
+
As you said in your podcast, St. Michael is more powerful that Satan. I felt that St. Michael got me through the experience since I invoke his protection often. Weeks later, it is still upsetting to me to think about the experience.
