*SPOILERS* Micah caslights Katie through the movie, a lot, to belive that he can solve the issue and that Katie shouldn't seek help

Katie ocassionally enters a catatonic state that looks similar to that of someone having an absent seizure, but there is no confirmation one way or another if this is the case.

While the characters themselves don't break the fourth wall, this movie is presented as a found footage type deal, and there is occasionally text that "implies" that the studio is talking as if this is a true story,

Literally the whole movie is revolving around Katie, Micah, and the demon haunting and stalking Katie. Although you never see the actual thing, you see it crawl under blankets, throw Katie around, turn on lights and make really loud thumping noises.
