Summary
This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!
For some investigators, the paranormal begins with curiosity—for David Pierce Rodriguez, it began with something far more personal.
As a child, he experienced events that would shape the rest of his life, leaving him with questions that didn’t fade over time. What started as something he lived through eventually led him into the world of paranormal investigation, where he now works to better understand—and confront—the kinds of experiences that once affected him directly.
David shares how those early experiences influenced his path, what it’s like to investigate cases involving darker activity, and how his perspective has evolved over time. From firsthand encounters to the work he does today, his journey offers insight into how personal experience can shape the way someone approaches the unknown.
It’s a look at what happens when the paranormal isn’t just something you study—but something you’ve lived through.

| 0:00.0 | Today on the Grave Talks, growing out of possession, a conversation with David Pierce Rodriguez. |
| 0:28.1 | As a child, David Pierce Rodriguez spent several of his formative years possessed. |
| 0:33.3 | Living in a mansion that held its own spirits, combined with depressing family trauma, |
| 0:38.7 | likely led to something very dark taking on David's body and actions. |
| 0:42.7 | All these years later, David is out to help those affected by the paranormal and those affected by the supernatural world's darkest sex, the demonic. |
| 0:48.8 | So I was 12, and he appeared in a chair when I was getting ready to go to sleep I just got into the bed |
| 0:56.7 | felt like something was in the room look across and my grandfather's right there sitting in a chair |
| 1:02.7 | didn't say anything just kind of nodded his head kind of like to say I guess you know what I |
| 1:07.4 | imagine he was saying was that I'm going to be okay and that was it. It just kind of |
| 1:12.8 | disappeared. It was it. It was very strange, very fast and that's the first time. And then after |
| 1:17.7 | that we'll go up a couple of years in the same house from 1984 to 1986 from ages of 14 to 16, I underwent a possession in that house. So kind of |
| 1:30.7 | have maybe a different story than most people do. But that got pretty intense. And then I tried |

| 1:42.8 | moved around a bunch of times and I |
| 1:45.2 | wasn't in Ohio anymore. So that stuff didn't really happen to me anymore and I kind of wanted |
| 1:48.8 | to forget about it. But as I got older, I, in my 20s and stuff was, stuff kept happening. I would |
| 1:58.1 | see stuff around me happening that was kind of paranormal, had the |
| 2:02.4 | question still, and it's always in the back of my head. But I didn't really have time to kind of |
| 2:07.0 | pursue that in my 20s until my early 30s. And then in 2000 and late 2003, early 2004, what about 17 years ago, that's the only time ago, 18, 17 years ago. |
| 2:21.6 | Crazy. |
| 2:21.9 | It was in Nebraska, I started Prism paranormal. |
