In this episode of The Compendium, we are diving head first into The Exorcism of Roland Doe, the terrifying true story behind The Exorcist movie. That's right, it was real! This real-life exorcism story recounts the chilling experiences of young Roland Doe, also known as Ronald Hunkeler, whose battle with alleged demonic possession shook his family and the Catholic Church to its core, testing their strength and faith. Today we'll discuss Ouija board dangers, Father William Bowdern’s harrowing exorcism attempts, and the haunting diary kept by Father Raymond Bishop. Is this a case of supernatural possession, or something psychological?
