My understanding of these verses are as follows; we already know that Satan is known as the deceiver, he lies to obtain what he wants. Here we see that the woman with the familiar spirit see gods and an old man ascending from the ground. There is nothing from God living bellow the ground. our God sits in heavenly places; therefore these gods are more likely demons. The woman also told Saul that God was his enemy. God didn't say he was his enemy, he rejected Saul as a king due to his disobedience however he never rejected him as a person. Remember that the devil has been given certain amount of power and he uses wisely. When Saul go to Satan's alley (the house of the woman with familiar spirit} it is to expect that the devil will take charge and give you what he wants to bring more depression and trouble spirits, This was not Samuel people die and then is the judgment they can not come back.
