10. Days’ Marlena Has The Devil Inside
Whether you watch Days of Our Lives (DOOL) or not, fans and non-fans alike are aware of that time when Marlena was possessed by the Devil. In the early 1990s, DOOL fans will remember creepy images of Marlena’s haunting green eyes, levitating from her bed, and that crazy voice! Her better half, John Black, was able to rid her of her demons (literally) thanks to some past experiences as a priest. It’s safe to say this storyline is forever etched in our memories as one of the most iconic moments in soap history.
