3 a.m.or Devil's Hour



   
 According to a folklore belief it is the time when creatures such as witches , demons and mainly ghosts becomes most powerful and their black magic to be most effective.It may be used to refer to any random time of bad luck or something greater likelihood to occur(e.g.,crimes,supernatural,baby crying,etc.)
        Many of us considers this time also as Satan's hour because on contrary to this 3 p.m is considered to be holy hour because it was the time when Jesus breathed his last and died on the cross.


The Exorcism of Emily Rose

3 a m is also considered as the time when devil or better to say evil spirits roam about in search of souls of living person.Many of us have watched the famous American court-room drama horror film  'The Exorcism of Emily Rose' which released on 2005.It tells us a story of a real life exorcism which goes wrong and of the consequences that follows.But the point which I want to raise here is about the time when the girl gets possessed.It was also 3 a m.Yes,it was that time when evil spirits roam about like I have said earlier.

This time is also known as the hour when demon or evil spirits mocks Holy Trinity.
Famous ghost hunters considers the hours between midnight and 4 a m as 'peak' hours.
          Not only us or Hollywood filmmakers considers this time as devil's hour but  William Shakespeare also considered midnight as the time when supernatural phenomena or evil deeds occurs as he was too keen towards supernatural.We can get to see this in Macbeth or Julius Caesar.But 'Witching hour'never appears in his plays.
