In 1676 A Possessed Nun Wrote A Message From The Devil. Now the Chilling Letter Has Been Translated

The message — indeed devilish — describes God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit as "dead weights," the researcher said.

It was penned by Sister Maria Crocifissa della Concezione, a 31-year-old nun living at the convent of Palma di Montechiaro in Sicily. On Aug. 11, 1676, she was found on the floor of her cell, her face covered in ink, holding a note written in an incomprehensible mix of symbols and letters, according to historical records. Sister Maria apparently said the letter was written by the devil in an attempt to get her to turn away from God and toward evil, historical accounts suggest.

The message, just 14 lines of jumbled, archaic letters, has for centuries defied every attempt at understanding its meaning.
