Description:
It's our Exorcist Halloween Special! In the Spring of 1949, a 14-year-old boy began exhibiting signs of demonic possession after the death of his aunt. Following a harrowing exorcism, the boy, known only as Roland Doe, was cured.
Local news stories about the exorcism caught the eye of William Peter Blatty, inspiring his 1971 novel “
The Exorcist
”. He also wrote the screenplay that became the 1973 film, directed by William Friedkin.
This is Based on a True Crime.
