Episode 25: Carpe Diem, Demon (The Exorcist Part I)

The crew is back this week with a very creepy two-parter! In part one, Abby tells the gang all about the exorcism of Ronnie Hunkeler, (AKA Roland Doe, Robbie Mannheim) who was the inspiration for the best selling book and movie, The Exorcist. Ronnie was a normal kid living in Maryland in the 1940's when he was met with strange paranormal events in his family's home. Things soon turned from bad to worse when Ronnie becomes the target of the malevolent force, his body seemingly taken over by demons. The boys parents would do anything to save him, including calling for an exorcism. Tune in next time for part two! We will be discussing the making of the movie The Exorcist and the behind the scenes events which led many to believe the set and the actors were cursed.
