Episode 29 : The Exorcism of Roland Doe
Things get real spooky as we dive into "the deep dark waters of Satan's hell hole," aka the super metal exorcism of Roland Doe. This 1949 real-life horror story was the inspiration behind William Blatty's "The Exorcist," one of the greatest horror novels and films of all time. We'll get into the origins of Roland's possession and read through diary entries made by one of the priests on site. Of course we'll talk about weird happenings on William Friedkin's set, including deaths, unexplained fires and backbreaking injuries. And we'll wrap it all up in a tasty little bow as Halee delights us with the cutest strawberry shortcakes you've ever seen. Buckle up, Coven! It's about to get weird. Happy Haunting!
How cute are these strawberry shortcakes?! Get the recipe here.
