With shows that discuss and attempt to hunt down paranormal entities (for example, the very popular Ghost Hunters), it isn’t unlikely to not have heard about or seen some form of EVP being recorded. Whether or not it’s real is another thing. With that said, it now seems Christian author Roderick Millington insists he has an EVP recording of Satan – and the entity’s voice isn’t quite what you’d expect.…
