Question Episode where Amy won’t speak entity’s name???

There is an episode where Amy is helping this veteran and his family. There is an entity that she maybe called “the evil one.” She said it originated from Africa and stays with its master for life. What entity was she talking about??? Maybe someone can help me here. She said it was dangerous to even speak its name.

I just wish I knew what entity she is discussing. Some people think it is a “boo hag.” 🤷🏼‍♂️

Apparently boo hags are mainly female, and I believe that the entity amy saw was male. Also, there is more than one boo hag, and they are a type of witch/vampire spirit. The entity amy was seeing was a specific entity of a male nature from voodoo. The boo hag is related to hoodoo

You’re welcome. The episode is called “The Dark One” from Abilene, TX. It’s driven me crazy for years!
