We'll discuss Gillian's possession in the books & the movie, some words from the director, cast & crew on what it was like to shoot that climactic coven scene, and some real signs to look out for to let you know if a ghost is making itself at home, in your personal space! We'll get into the history, lore, and real life accounts of the most disturbing demonic possession & exorcisms to date! And as always, we take a look at how exorcisms and hauntings are portrayed in pop culture, including a few movie sets that were actually deemed to be cursed!The Stinas also read some real life ghost stories submitted by their listeners & patrons, plus tell their own experiences with the supernatural!
