This week we are talking about the filmography of Lucky McKee, a director known for his boundary-pushing work in the horror genre. He has directed films such as "All Cheerleaders Die," "May," and "The Woman," which often subvert traditional horror tropes and explore complex themes, while also featuring strong and unconventional female characters.

The true story behind The Conjuring 3: The Devil Made Me Do It, is that in February 1981, a young man by the name of Arne Cheyenne Johnson was arrested in Connecticut and charged with murder. Under ordinary circumstances, such a crime would have been given brief mention in the local press, and the matter would’ve quickly faded from public view. What the press did not know at the time, because the essential facts were still cloaked in secrecy, was that the murder represented the culmination of a horrendous religious case that had begun fully eight months before, in the town of Brookfield, Connecticut, our topic for this episode: The Possession of David Glatzel.

Throw another log on the Fact & Fiction in The Conjuring Universe fire with the most diabolical demon in the entire series, VALAK. Of course we get on plenty of side tangents while getting into the origin and history of Valak throughout The Nun and The Conjuring 2. Since Maurice “Frenchy” Theriault plays a huge part in The Nun, we also cover briefly cover the real-life Frenchy’s possession and investigation by the Warrens as well.
