The Exorcist is one of the scariest movies ever made, but did you know it's based on a true story? In 1949, a 14-year-old boy named Roland Doe was allegedly possessed by a demon. His family called in a priest to perform an exorcism, and the process lasted for over a year. The story of Roland Doe's possession was eventually published in a book, which was later adapted into the movie.
In this episode of ParaBabble, we explore the true story behind The Exorcist. We talk about the events that inspired the movie, and are amazed by how many similarities made it to the screen that no one really talks about.
Join us for this fascinating and terrifying look at one of the most famous horror movies of all time.
