204 – The Exorcism of Ronald Hunkeler aka Roland Doe aka Robbie Manheim

Ever see the movie the Exorcist? You know, with the little girl who gets possessed by a demon? Well, that movie was based on a book of the same name, and that book was based on a "true story." The story starts Cottage City Maryland in the home of the Ronald Hunkeler (Thanks Ghostly Podcast for the scoop.) There he learned about the spiritualism movement from his aunt Harriett. She taught the family how to use Ouija boards and the such. Upon her death, the family was experiencing some supernatural experiences around the home. Thinking it would help, the did a séance to see if it was the aunt. From there, Ronald began experiencing signs of possession. This week, Count Panek and Bob look at the case and see if there was any truth to the story of The Exorcist.
