A Christian influencer's claim that UFOs are demonic because of alleged occult sigils has sparked heated debate online. Religious demonologist Nathaniel Gillis argues that occult sigils appearing near unidentified aerial phenomena prove their satanic nature. His theory has spread widely online, sparking heated exchanges between believers, sceptics and researchers.
Yet closer inspection suggests the evidence may be far thinner than the claims suggest. From famous UFO sightings to folklore accounts, the supposed sigils often turn out to be ambiguous markings, geometric shapes or symbols that do not fit the strict definition of occult ritual signs.
