Welcome back to episode 65 and our dive into the super spooky ookies that is The Exorcist! We take a quick detour from our main story to talk about the curse that seems to have attached itself to the movie. We have weird fires, horrendous injuries, churches struck by lightning and even death. If all of that wasn't enough for you we move on to the real life possession of a young boy in the late 1940s. His story would become the book that would then become one of the scariest movies of all time. Turn on all the lights, grab your favorite exit buddy, avoid that split pea soup and say your prayers because this one is a doozy.
