I have lived in St. Louis all my life so I know the story pretty well and he got some stuff really wrong. I also have a family friend who is a priest and was friends with the younger of the two priests who were there. The chapter on the history of exorcisms is very interesting, but when he gets to Robbie's story, take it all with a grain of salt. I am sure it is entertaining for ppl who don't live here and haven't heard the story their whole life, but I guess since I do live here, I found all of this a little hard to swallow.
This is the true story behind the film "The Exocist" This tale is not for the faint of heart. But if you like to be thrilled and a little scared... Read it.
