I found the book to be entertaining for its informational and reflective aspects of a practicing demonologist. Sarchie’s tough love and “nobody’s perfect” approach allows readers to personally connect with his straight-forward and refreshingly unpretentious narrative, although his at-times black-and-white views on religion, particularly in regards to those beliefs and practices which do not fit into his Christian paradigm, may prove abrasive to others. While his strong Catholic heritage is ever-present in the background and commentary he provides, he is not afraid to discuss his own shortcomings in context to the supernatural, his interactions with others, his profession as a police officer, and in his own life. Ralph Sarchie comes across as a reflective and yet no-nonsense guy who is both admittedly bull-headed at times and yet humble about his successes and failures with each case, consistently reminding his audience that he merely does what God allows him to do. While the horrors of the book are certainly inherent in the demonic subject matter by default, Sarchie and Collier have organized the writing along the lines of a true crime case study format with each chapter generally devoted to a different supernatural investigation.

Martin's Paperbacks), Deliver Us From Evil, co-written with Lisa Collier Cool and newly titled to connect more closely to the film of the same name, chronicles many of the supernatural cases which Sarchie became involved with as a demonologist when, in his spare time, he served as an investigator to the paranormal, assisted in religious exorcism rites, and facilitated spiritual cleansings. Originally published in 2001 entitled Beware the Night (St. I'm seeing Deliver Us From Evil on Monday and I'm looking forward to it.The recently released horror film Deliver Us From Evil (Jerry Bruckheimer Films) was loosely inspired by the reportedly true life experiences of Ralph Sarchie, a New York City police sergeant who began studying demonology under the guidance of renowned paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren. Inspired by the book, which details Sarchie’s bone-chilling real-life cases. He joins forces with an unconventional priest (Edgar Ramírez), schooled in the rituals of exorcism, to combat the frightening and demonic possessions that are terrorizing their city.

In DELIVER US FROM EVIL, New York police officer Ralph Sarchie (Eric Bana), struggling with his own personal issues, begins investigating a series of disturbing and inexplicable crimes. We've got a featurette on the real Sarchie's cases for you, one of which inspired the soon-to-be-released horror film from writer/director Scott Derrickson ( Sinister, The Exorcism of Emily Rose). In the upcoming Deliver Us From Evil, in theaters July 2, Eric Bana plays real-life NYPD sergeant and demonologist Ralph Sarchie.
