Priest who ‘died and went to hell’ described shocking thing he saw demons doing

A surprising tune by a popular artist was playing during the priest's experience of hell too

A priest says he 'wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy' what he saw when he claims he visited hell.

Of all the people to end up getting a sneak preview into hell, you certainly wouldn't expect it to be a priest - well, or maybe you would.

But in 2016, suffering a heart attack saw priest Gerald Johnson dip his toes in the not so holy water of the pits of hell, the netherworld even came with its own surprising background music.

Now, you're probably imagining AC/DC, Guns N' Roses or Led Zeppelin tunes ringing out.

However, it wasn't any sort of hard rock that blessed Johnson's ears, but the sound of pop and R&B star Rihanna.

Taking to TikTok, Johnson explained that after seeing hell itself he 'wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy', and described exactly what he witnessed down there.

He said: "My spirit left my physical body and I thought that I was going upwards, because I thought I had done so much good in this lifetime and helped so many people and basically made decisions that were godly decisions.

"As opposed to going up I went down. There was a section in hell where music was playing and it was the same music that you hear on the Earth, but as opposed to entertainers singing it, demons were singing it."

And there was one song by RiRi which cropped up in particular.

He went on: "It was some of the same lyrics that we hear here, I knew that on Earth a lot of the lyrics and the music and the songs are inspired by demons.

"Every lyric to every song is there to torment you as to the fact you didn’t worship god through music while you were on the Earth."

Among the songs he says he heard demons singing as a means of tormenting people was 'Umbrella' by Rihanna, while the denizens of hell also had 'Don't Worry, Be Happy' by Bobby McFerrin in their repertoire.

While Rihanna's music might be hellish for some, many of her devoted fans are crying out for the songstress to release her next album as she hasn't released one since 2016.

She's long been teasing what's been dubbed as 'R9' and got fans hopes up when the 'We Found Love' singer said she wanted to drop the album by the end of 2023.

Fast forward to winter 2024 though and we're still waiting.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight in June earlier this year, Rihanna said: "Now, I'm prepared to go back in the studio. [...] I'm gonna start."

The mom-of-two added that she's 'starting over' with the album, but won't be completely abandoning the songs that she's made has already.

Hell needs some new songs, RiRi!
