Candace Cameron Bure Thinks Scary Movies Are a Portal For Demonic Forces

In a time of a lot of uncertainty, it’s comforting to have things that you can count on. Candace Cameron Bure saying something stupid and religious? At this point, that’s just a given. And you know what? Hallelujah. We all need the laugh.

During the latest episode of her podcast (the creatively named Candace Cameron Bure Podcast), the actor said she believes “spiritual things” are happening in her home. And by that she means entities that can take up residence via what she referred to as a “portal”—aka a horror film playing on her television.

“Like if you’re watching this, or you’re playing this video game, or whatever, that’s a portal that could let stuff inside our home,” Bure said. “I don’t even want someone watching a scary movie in our house on the TV, because to me, that’s just a portal.” I think she’s seen Poltergeist one too many times…

“Listen, I’m in the film industry,” Bure tacked on. (Referring to the right-wing propaganda network—Great American Family—that she stars on as “the film industry” is generous…) “I understand how it all works. I know that movie has a crew of 200 people, and they’re lighting it, and they’re adding the sound effects, and its makeup, and the camera, people, and actors. However, there’s still something that can be incredibly demonic while they’ve made it.”

In fairness, Bure did spend many formative years with Dave Coulier and John Stamos who we’ve learned in recent years have exhibited some rather weird behavior. Remember Stamos’ memoir? Enough said. But clearly, the girl has forgotten that she stars on perhaps the most demonic network on television—one that churns out nothing but conservative propaganda thinly veiled by garlands and twinkle lights.
