IN THE RIVER VALLEYS OF WESTERN
CONNECTICUT LIE HISTORIC TOWNS
DATING BACK TO THE EARLY 1700s.
HERE, GOTHIC CHURCHES AND
WEATHERED GRAVEYARDS STAND AS
MONUMENTS TO A BELIEF IN A
HIGHER GOOD.
YET HIDDEN BENEATH THIS
LANDSCAPE, AN ANCIENT EVIL STILL
LURKS.
ARNE JOHNSON AND DEBBIE GLATZEL
ABANDON THE BIG CITY AND RENT A
HOUSE.
ARNE WORKS FOR A TREE SERVICE.
DEBBIE IS A DOG GROOMER.
DEBBIE'S YOUNGER BROTHER DAVID
COMES ALONG TO HELP.
>> WHAT DO YOU THINK OF OUR NEW
HOUSE?
>> TOTALLY COOL.
>> Narrator: THE COST OF THE
MOVE CONSUMES MOST OF THEIR
SAVINGS, BUT THEY BELIEVE THEIR
NEW LIFE WILL BE WORTH IT.
>> I WAS EXCITED ABOUT IT.
SO, YOU CAN IMAGINE HAVING NICE
PICNICS, PLACE FOR THE KIDS TO
PLAY INSTEAD OF THE STREETS.
IT REALLY FELT LIKE IT WAS A
GOOD MOVE.
>> IT WAS LIKE MY DREAM HOUSE,
AND I THOUGHT WE CAN BUILD A
NICE BEAUTIFUL LIFE THERE.
>> DO YOU HAVE THE KEYS?
>> WHAT IS THAT?
>> DO YOU HAVE THE KEYS?
>> OH, YEAH, YEAH, I GOT THE
KEYS.
>> DAVID WAS OUR FAMILY TEDDY
BEAR.
HE ALWAYS HAD A SMILE ON HIS
FACE.
HE WAS ALWAYS READY AND WILLING
TO GIVE A HAND IF YOU NEEDED
HELP.
>> HEY, DAVID, DO YOU THINK YOU
COULD SWEEP OUT THE MASTER
BEDROOM?
>> OH, YEAH, SURE.
>> HE'S A REAL GOOD KID.
>> AND THEN I GUESS I'LL WIPE
THE WINDOWS DOWN.
>> YEAH, YEAH, I'LL GET THIS,
AND I'M GONNA HAVE TO CARRY
IN MORE BOXES.
>> OKAY.
>> OH, WE'VE GOT A PROBLEM IN
THE ROOM.
>> PROBLEM?
>> JUST COME LOOK.
>> Narrator: DEBBIE IS SURPRISED
TO SEE THAT THE PREVIOUS TENANTS
LEFT THEIR BED IN THE MASTER
BEDROOM.
>> I'LL TELL THE LANDLORD TO GET
RID OF IT.
JUST SWEEP AROUND IT.
>> OKAY.
>> WHAT'S WRONG?
>> HE PUSHED ME.
>> WHO?
>> THE OLD MAN.
>> THERE'S NOBODY IN THE HOUSE
BUT US.
COME ON, I'LL SHOW YOU.
>> NO!
I CAN'T GO BACK IN THERE.
>> I SAID, "DAVID, COME ON.
I GOT THINGS TO DO.
IF YOU DON'T WANT TO HELP JUST
SAY SO."
>> LOOK, I HAVE TO CLEAN THE
HOUSE.
IF YOU WANT TO STAY OUT HERE
AND PLAY, FINE.
>> WHAT'S GOING ON?
>> I HAVE NO IDEA.
>> I NOTICED DAVID WAS OUTSIDE,
BUT I REALLY DIDN'T PAY ANY
ATTENTION.
I FIGURED HE WAS BORED.
>> Narrator: DAVID REMAINS
OUTSIDE THE REST OF THE DAY, TOO
FRIGHTENED TO EVEN APPROACH THE
HOUSE.
>> COME ON, LET'S GO.
>> Narrator: THAT EVENING, THEY
RETURN TO THE BROOKFIELD HOME OF
DEBBIE'S FAMILY, WHERE THEY HAVE
BEEN STAYING UNTIL THEY MOVE
INTO THE NEW HOUSE.
HER MOTHER, JUDY GLATZEL,
ASSURES THEM THEY CAN STAY WITH
HER AS LONG AS NEEDED.
>> WHAT'S THE MATTER, HONEY?
>> I KEEP SEEING THE OLD MAN.
>> WHAT OLD MAN?
>> DAVID IMAGINED AN OLD MAN
PUSHED HIM AT OUR HOUSE.
>> HE DID!
I REALLY DID SEE HIM!
HE'S TALKING TO ME RIGHT NOW.
>> YOU CAN ACTUALLY HEAR HIM?
>> HE'S THERE NOW.
I CAN SEE HIM.
>> IF YOU CAN SEE HIM, WHAT'S
HE DOING?
>> THERE'S AN ANIMAL FRIGHTENED
BY THE OLD MAN.
IT'S CLAWING AT THE DOOR.
>> ALL RIGHT, LOOK, THAT'S
ENOUGH.
THE JOKE'S GETTING OLD.
>> DON'T MOVE IN THERE.
>> DAVID, ARNE AND I ARE GOING
TO LIVE THERE.
WE HAVE ALREADY SPENT TWO
MONTHS' RENT.
>> HE SAYS IF YOU GO BACK, HE'S
GOING TO HURT YOU.
>> YEAH, RIGHT.
OLD MAN, IF YOU DON'T WANT US
TO LIVE THERE, SHOW US A SIGN.
SEE?
NOTHING.
IT'S YOUR IMAGINATION.
[ BANGING, CREAKING ]
[ RATTLING ]
>> COME ON.
LET'S GET YOU TO BED.
>> IT WAS SCARING ME.
I WAS BECOMING FRIGHTENED.
[ RATTLING CONTINUES ]
[ RATTLING STOPS ]
>> [ EXHALES HEAVILY ]
ARNE, WHAT IF DAVID'S RIGHT?
WHAT IF THE HOUSE IS HAUNTED?
>> NOW YOU HAVE EVIDENCE, SO
YOU'RE STARTING TO WONDER, WELL,
MAYBE THERE'S SOMETHING TO THIS
OLD MAN.
>> LOOK, WE HAVE ALL OUR MONEY
TIED UP.
>> Narrator: DEBBIE AND ARNE
WORRY THAT THERE'S SOMETHING
NOT QUITE RIGHT WITH THE HOUSE,
BUT THEY DECIDE TO MOVE IN
ANYWAY.
THEY'VE ALREADY PAID TWO MONTHS'
RENT, AND ARNE HAS INVITED HIS
MOTHER TO LIVE WITH THEM.
>> WE'LL BE OKAY.
>> I WASN'T GONNA LET ANYTHING
SHATTER OUR NEW LIFE.
>> Narrator: THE NEXT MORNING,
ARNE AND DEBBIE RETURN TO THEIR
NEW HOUSE TO CONTINUE CLEANING.
>> WHEN I SAW THE SCRATCHES ON
THE DOORS, I WAS STARTING TO
REALLY QUESTION "WELL, MAYBE
SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY WRONG
HERE."
>> THAT WAS PROOF ENOUGH FOR ME.
>> SO WE GIVE UP THE HOUSE?
>> AGREED.
WELL, LET'S GET OUR STUFF.
>> Narrator: AS THEY MOVE OUT,
ARNE'S MOTHER ARRIVES.
>> WE'RE NOT GONNA TAKE THE
HOUSE, MOM.
>> YOU KNOW, I JUST GAVE UP MY
APARTMENT.
>> YEAH, SHE WAS UPSET WITH ME
AND ARNE.
"HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME,
LEAVING ME HERE STRANDED LIKE
THIS?"
>> THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS
GHOSTS.
>> I'M SORRY, MOM.
WE'RE JUST NOT GONNA TAKE THE
HOUSE.
>> BUT I WAS SO FRIGHTENED, I
DIDN'T WANT TO STAY THERE.
>> JUST GIVE ME THE KEYS.
>> AND I TRIED TO EXPLAIN TO HER
WHAT HAPPENED...
SHE DIDN'T BELIEVE THAT.
"DON'T TELL ME THAT KIND OF
STUFF."
>> Narrator: ARNE'S MOTHER
DECIDES TO STAY IN THE HOUSE
DESPITE HIS PLEADING AGAINST IT.
>> WE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF
CONFLICT OVER THAT, AND WHICH
WAS TOTALLY UNDERSTANDABLE.
YOU KNOW, SHE FELT ABANDONED.
>> HE'S COMING FOR ME!
HE'S COMING FOR ME!
>> ARNE, SOMETHING IS HAPPENING.
>> HE'S COMING FOR ME.
I CAN SEE HIM.
HE'S COMING FOR ME!
HE WANTS TO GET ME!
HE'S COMING FOR ME!
I CAN SEE HIM!
>> WHO'S COMING FOR YOU, DAVID?
IS IT THE OLD MAN?
>> EXCEPT AT NIGHT HE TURNS INTO
A BEAST.
HE'S MAD AT ME BECAUSE I TOLD
YOU ABOUT HIM.
>> EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE OKAY.
>> I'D SEEN THE FEAR IN THIS
CHILD, AND IT WAS JUST
OVERWHELMING.
SOMETHING WAS GOING WRONG, AND I
BELIEVED HIM.
>> WE TOLD DAVID, "YOU'LL BE
FINE.
YOU'RE GONNA BE SAFE WITH US."
>> Narrator: THE NEXT DAY, THE
FAMILY GOES ON AN OUTING.
DAVID SEEMS RECOVERED.
JUDY, ARNE, AND DEBBIE HOPE HE'S
PUT THE ODD INCIDENT BEHIND HIM.
>> I'M GOING UP.
OH, YEAH, OFF THE CHEST.
WHOO!
>> OH, INTERCEPTION!
>> BASICALLY THE WHOLE DAY WAS A
GREAT DAY...
UNTIL WE RETURNED BACK TO
BROOKFIELD.
>> COME ON, DAVID.
LET'S GO IN.
>> NO, I CAN'T.
>> WHY NOT?
>> HE'S IN OUR HOUSE.
>> I'LL GO CHECK IT OUT, OKAY?
>> ALL RIGHT, BUDDY, LET'S GO ON
INSIDE.
THERE'S NOTHING IN THERE.
>> NO, I CAN'T GO BACK IN THERE.
>> DAVID, MOVE, NOW.
>> AND I SAID, "WELL, I'LL
PROTECT YOU.
THE FAMILY WILL PROTECT YOU.
WE'LL DO WHATEVER WE CAN."
>> BUT HE'S ALWAYS HERE.
>> Shh, DON'T THINK ABOUT THAT,
HONEY, OKAY?
OKAY?
JUST TRY TO CALM DOWN.
>> NO, HE'S STILL HERE.
>> ARNE CAME IN AND CHECKED.
IT'S FINE.
EVERYTHING IS FINE.
SEE IF YOU CAN SLEEP.
>> YEAH.
>> ALL RIGHT?
NOW GET SOME REST.
>> WE HAD TO BE STRONG FOR
DAVID, BECAUSE HE FELT ALL
ALONE.
[ EERIE WHISPERING ]
>> AAAAAAAAH!
>> MY GOD.
>> AAAAAAH!
>> DAVID!
>> WHAT'S WRONG?
>> HE'S GONNA HIT ME!
>> NOTHING'S GONNA HURT YOU.
>> UGH!
>> YOU HEAR THE BREATH COME OUT
OF HIM, AND HE GOES FLYING ON
THE FLOOR.
>> OH!
UGH!
HELP ME!
HE SAYS HE'S GONNA TAKE MY SOUL!
>> NO ONE'S GONNA TAKE YOUR
SOUL.
WE'RE GONNA PROTECT YOU, OKAY?
>> THE SCARIEST PART TO ME WAS
SEEING DAVID GO THROUGH THIS
WITH NOTHING THERE TO DO IT.
IT WAS TERRIFYING.
>> WE SAW HIM GETTING BEATEN.
>> Narrator: DEBBIE AND JUDY
TELL THEIR PRIEST ABOUT DAVID'S
TORMENT.
>> HIS SKIN WOULD TURN RED WHERE
HE'D BEEN HIT AND BEGIN TO
BRUISE.
>> SOMETHING WAS ATTACKING HIM.
>> UGH! HELP ME!
>> HE WOULD CRY FOR HELP, BUT
THERE WAS NOTHING WE COULD DO.
>> PLEASE, CAN YOU HELP US,
FATHER?
>> THERE IS AN OUTSIDE CHANCE
THAT THIS COULD BE DEMONIC
POSSESSION.
>> Narrator: THE PRIEST SAYS
THAT BEFORE THE CHURCH CAN
BECOME INVOLVED, THEY WILL NEED
TO INVESTIGATE.
HE SUGGESTS THAT THE FAMILY
LIGHT CANDLES AND USE HOLY WATER
FOR PROTECTION.
>> AND PRAY AS MUCH AS YOU
POSSIBLY CAN.
>> OUR FATHER, WHO ART IN
HEAVEN, HALLOWED BE THY NAME.
THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE
DONE ON EARTH AS IT IS IN
HEAVEN.
GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY
BREAD, AND FORGIVE US OUR
TRESPASSES AS WE FORGIVE THOSE
WHO TRESPASS AGAINST US.
LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION, BUT
DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
>> [ COUGHS ]
[ CHOKING ]
>> OH!
>> I'LL GO CALL FATHER.
>> YEAH.
>> AND YOU FELT HOPELESSNESS.
YOU'RE TRYING TO PROTECT HIM,
AND HE'S STILL RECEIVING THE
BLOWS.
>> THE HOLY CANDLES ONLY SEEMED
TO MAKE THINGS WORSE.
WE HAVE A BIG PROBLEM.
>> GOD BLESS THIS PLACE IN THE
NAME OF THE FATHER, OF THE SON,
AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.
>> Narrator: THE NEXT MORNING,
THE PRIEST TRIES TO CLEANSE THE
HOUSE OF EVIL.
>> I BLESS THIS PLACE IN THE
NAME OF THE FATHER, OF THE SON,
AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.
IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST, I
COMMAND YOU TO LEAVE AND GO BACK
TO WHERE YOU CAME FROM.
>> AFTER HE BLESSED THE HOUSE,
IT MADE US FEEL BETTER.
WE FELT LIKE WE WERE BEING
PROTECTED.
Narrator: BUT THE PRIEST ADMITS
THAT THE BLESSING MAY NOT BE
ENOUGH.
HE SAYS HE'S GOING TO CONSULT
TWO EXPERTS ON HAUNTINGS AND THE
DEMONIC, JUST IN CASE.
[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]
>> Narrator: ED AND
LORRAINE WARREN HAVE
INVESTIGATED HUNDREDS OF CASES,
INCLUDING THE AMITYVILLE HORROR.
ED IS KNOWN WORLDWIDE AS A
RELIGIOUS DEMONOLOGIST.
>> OF COURSE.
>> Narrator: AND LORRAINE IS A
CLAIRVOYANT.
>> AND WHEN HE CALLED, HE TOLD
ABOUT THIS CASE, ABOUT THE
STRANGE THINGS THAT WERE
HAPPENING.
>> HOW SOON DOES HE WANT US UP
THERE, TONIGHT?
>> "THERE IS SOMETHING
DEFINITELY WRONG, AND I BELIEVE
IT COULD BE POSSESSION."
AND SO HE SAID, "I'D LIKE
YOU TO LOOK INTO IT."
AND SO I SAID, "FATHER, WOULD
YOU LIKE US TO GO TONIGHT?"
>> YES, I WOULD.
I THINK IT'S PRETTY URGENT.
>> [ GROWLING ]
>> AAAAAAAH!
UGH!
>> UGH!
>> Narrator: ED AND
LORRAINE WARREN GO TO THE
GLATZEL HOME TO EVALUATE DAVID.
>> HI, I'M LORRAINE.
WE SPOKE EARLIER.
>> YES, THANK YOU FOR OFFERING
TO HELP.
THIS IS MY DAUGHTER, DEBBIE.
>> WHEN I FIRST MET ED AND
LORRAINE, I SAID "OH, THANK GOD
SOMEBODY'S GONNA HELP US.
THEY'LL LET US KNOW WHAT'S HERE.
THEY'LL LET US KNOW WHAT WE'RE
DEALING WITH."
>> THERE WAS TREMENDOUS TENSION
IN THAT HOUSE.
YOU YOU COULD CUT IT WITH A
KNIFE.
>> LOOK, DAVID, THESE KIND
PEOPLE ARE HERE TO HELP.
>> [ Deep voice ] I KNOW WHO YOU
ARE.
>> AND WHEN HE LIFTED HIS HEAD
UP, IT WAS NO LONGER DAVID.
AND TO SEE THAT, THAT IS VERY
INTIMIDATING.
YOU'RE SEEING A CREATURE IN
THAT CHILD'S BODY.
>> [ Normal voice ] YOU TRIPPED
COMING UP THE STAIRS TONIGHT.
>> UGH.
>> HOW DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT?
>> THE BEAST TOLD ME.
>> I'D LIKE TO ASK QUESTIONS OF
THE REST OF THE FAMILY FIRST.
THEN I'LL COME BACK, AND WE'LL
TALK.
>> HE WAS CONSTANTLY BEING
INFORMED BY A LEVEL OF PSYCHIC
ABILITY, BUT IT WASN'T A PSYCHIC
ABILITY COMING FROM ANY GOOD.
>> AND WHAT ELSE HAS DAVID DONE
THAT SEEMS SUPERNATURAL?
>> HE TOLD US WE'D FIND
SCRATCHES ON THE DOOR OF OUR
RENTAL HOME.
>> AND WE'VE WITNESSED DAVID
BEING ATTACKED BY SOMETHING
INVISIBLE.
>> Narrator: THE FAMILY'S
TESTIMONY MAY BE NEEDED LATER TO
CONVINCE THE CHURCH TO AUTHORIZE
AN EXORCISM.
>> AS IF IT HAD REALLY HAPPENED.
>> YOU HAVE TO PROVE BEYOND A
SHADOW OF A DOUBT THAT IT IS NOT
PSYCHOLOGICAL, WHAT IS HAPPENING
TO THIS INDIVIDUAL.
>> KIND OF HARD.
THE STUFF'S THE SAME.
>> OH, YEAH.
>> I'D LIKE TO ASK THE BEAST A
FEW QUESTIONS.
IS HE A GHOST?
ARE YOU A DEMON?
DOES HE HAVE ANY SPECIAL
POWERS?
>> HE COULD THROW YOU OUT THE
WINDOW RIGHT NOW.
>> WELL, IF HE HAS THOSE POWERS,
WHY NOT HAVE HIM KNOCK ON THE
TABLE OR KNOCK ON THE WALLS?
>> HE'S LAUGHING AT YOU.
YOU CAN'T ORDER HIM AROUND.
>> HE CAN'T DO IT.
I GUESS HE CAN'T.
[ RATTLING ]
>> WHAT IF WE MOVED TO A
DIFFERENT STATE?
DAVID SAYS IT LIVES AT THE
RENTAL HOUSE.
>> IT WILL FOLLOW YOU.
>> SHE EXPLAINED IT WOULD DO NO
GOOD AT THAT POINT, BECAUSE
WHEREVER WE WOULD GO, IT WOULD
FOLLOW US, AND THAT'S THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A HAUNTED
HOUSE AND HAUNTED PEOPLE.
HAUNTED PEOPLE, THESE THINGS
WILL FOLLOW YOU.
>> WELL, THEN, WHAT CAN WE DO?
>> Narrator: ED AND LORRAINE
TELL THEM THAT TO FREE DAVID,
THE CHURCH WILL HAVE TO
INTERVENE.
>> DO YOU MEAN AN EXORCISM?
>> YES.
>> Narrator: ED EXPLAINS THAT IT
COULD TAKE MONTHS FOR THE CHURCH
TO APPROVE A FORMAL EXORCISM.
INSTEAD, THE WARRENS HOPE TO
ARRANGE FOR A MINOR EXORCISM,
WHICH WILL ONLY TAKE A FEW
WEEKS.
ALARMED BY THE EVIL THAT HAS
INVADED THEIR LIVES, ARNE AND
DEBBIE RETURN TO THE RENTAL
HOUSE TO TRY TO RESCUE ARNE'S
MOTHER.
>> I FELT REALLY CONCERNED FOR
MY MOTHER, BECAUSE THIS IS THE
PLACE WHERE IT'S ALL EMANATING
FROM.
>> WHAT DO YOU WANT?
>> I SAID SHE HAD TO MOVE OUT.
IT'S NOT SAFE.
>> I HAVE NO PLACE TO GO.
I'M STAYING, AND THAT'S FINAL.
>> BUT SHE DIDN'T WANT TO HEAR
IT.
>> HEY, MY TRUCK'S COMING AFTER
YOU.
>> [ IMITATING TRUCK HORN ]
IT HAS TO TURN INTO A RING.
>> OKAY.
>> Narrator: FOR A FEW DAYS,
DAVID REMAINS FREE OF DEMONIC
POSSESSION.
>> NIGHT, MOM.
[ GASPS ]
OH!
AAH!
OH!
[ GRUNTING ]
[ SCREAMING ]
[ MOANING ]
>> DAVID!
>> [ SCREAMING ]
>> [ Deep voice ] DAVID'S GONE.
I'M IN CONTROL NOW.
[ RATTLING ]
>> TELL HIM TO STOP HURTING ME!
OH!
[ MOANING ]
>> QUIT PICKING ON THE CHILD!
DO YOU HEAR ME?!
IF YOU WANT TO PICK ON
SOMEBODY, PICK ON ME!
>> ARNE, DON'T!
>> I CHALLENGED IT TO TAKE ME
ON.
[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]
>> Narrator: A FEW DAYS LATER,
WHEN DAVID SEEMS RECOVERED, ARNE
LEAVES TO RUN A FEW ERRANDS.
[ ENGINE TURNS OVER ]
[ ENGINE REVVING ]
>> THE CAR ENGINE JUST STARTED
TO RACE.
[ ENGINE CONTINUES REVVING ]
>> Narrator: A DARK FIGURE
APPEARS OUT OF NOWHERE.
>> AND THEN AN ARM LIFTED UP AND
POINTED TO THE TREE.
ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE VEHICLE
JUST TOOK OFF.
DIDN'T HAVE NO CONTROL.
[ TIRES SCREECH ]
[ ENGINE IDLING ]
>> Narrator: ED AND
LORRAINE WARREN SUGGEST THAT
ARNE AND DEBBIE TALK TO AN
EXORCIST.
>> I LOOKED UP, AND THERE WAS A
DEMON.
>> WHAT DID HE LOOK LIKE?
>> HE LOOKED JUST LIKE THE
DEVIL.
I'M TELLING YOU, I'VE NEVER BEEN
SO SCARED IN MY LIFE.
>> WHY DO YOU THINK IT HAPPENED?
>> I THINK IT WAS BECAUSE I
CHALLENGED THE DEMON TO ATTACK
ME INSTEAD.
>> I KNOW YOU MEANT WELL.
>> THE FATHER SAID, "YOU JUST
DID THE WRONG THING.
I KNOW YOU'RE TRYING TO HELP,
BUT THAT WAS THE WORST THING YOU
CAN IMAGINE."
>> BUT YOU SHOULD NEVER HAVE
CHALLENGED THE DEMON TO ATTACK.
THIS CRUCIFIX HAS BEEN BLESSED.
I WANT YOU TO WEAR IT AT ALL
TIMES FOR PROTECTION.
AND BE CAREFUL, BOTH OF YOU.
I'M GOING TO BEGIN MAKING PLANS
FOR A MINOR RITE OF EXORCISM.
>> THANK YOU, FATHER.
>> [ Deep voice ] I KNOW WHO
GAVE YOU THAT.
>> DAVID LOOKED AT THE CRUCIFIX,
SAW IT ON ARNE'S NECK.
AND HE SAID, "I KNOW WHERE YOU
WERE, AND I KNOW WHO GAVE YOU
THAT," AND HE SAID THE NAMES.
>> IT WON'T DO YOU ANY GOOD.
>> AND SOMEHOW IT WAS THROWN OFF
ARNE'S NECK.
>> [ Normal voice ] HE WENT BACK
TO THE WELL.
>> WHAT WELL?
>> THE ONE BEHIND THE RENTAL
HOUSE.
>> THERE IS NO WELL, DAVID.
>> YES, THERE IS.
THAT'S HOW HE COMES INTO OUR
WORLD.
>> Narrator: IF DAVID IS RIGHT,
ARNE URGENTLY NEEDS TO RESCUE
HIS MOTHER FROM THE RENTAL
HOUSE.
>> CAN I HAVE THE HOLY WATER?
>> Narrator: THE HOUSE IS
DESERTED.
>> WHY DON'T YOU GO LOOK AT THE
OTHER ROOMS?
I'M GONNA GO CHECK OUT BACK.
>> Narrator: ARNE FEARS THAT HIS
MOTHER BECAME SO TERRIFIED OF
THE DEMON THAT SHE MOVED WITHOUT
TELLING HIM.
>> AND I WENT AROUND TO THE BACK
TO SEE THIS WELL THAT DAVID WAS
TALKING ABOUT.
I SAW THE BLACK FIGURE STANDING
THERE.
THE EYES WERE DARK PITS, DREW
ME IN.
AND I JUST REMEMBER STANDING
THERE, STARING INTO HIS EYES.
[ FLOORBOARD CREAKS ]
>> ARE YOU OKAY?
ARNE?
[ SCREAMING ]
[ ENGINE REVVING ]
>> ARNE!
[ SCREAMS ]
>> WHAT HAPPENED?
>> I WENT AROUND TO THE BACK TO
SEE THIS WELL, AND I CAME UNDER
DEMONIC POSSESSION.
AND THE NEXT THING I KNOW, I
WAS IN THE HOUSE.
AND I DON'T REMEMBER ANYTHING
BETWEEN THERE.
>> Narrator: LORRAINE TELLS THE
FAMILY TO BE PATIENT AND ASSURES
THEM SHE'LL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES
TO EXPEDITE THE EXORCISM.
>> THANK YOU.
>> OF COURSE.
>> DAVID?
>> AAAAH!
>> WHAT HAPPENED?
>> POSSESSION SET IN, BUT IT
WASN'T DAVID.
>> DAVID, IT'S GONNA BE OKAY.
>> HE HID THE KNIFE, AND HE WENT
AFTER ARNE WITH A KNIFE.
>> Narrator: DAVID TELLS THEM
THAT THE BEAST HAS CALLED UPON
MORE DEMONS TO POSSESS HIM.
>> THEY'RE ALL TORMENTING ME.
AH!
>> Narrator: THEY ATTACK HIM
TOGETHER, DEMANDING HE GIVE THEM
HIS SOUL.
>> [ GRUNTING ]
>> HE WAS FRIGHTENED.
SO WE ALL PROTECTED HIM AS MUCH
AS WE COULD.
I WAS SO WORRIED.
I WAS FRIGHTENED TRYING TO
FIGHT SOMETHING YOU CAN'T SEE.
>> Narrator: FIVE WEEKS AFTER
DAVID'S POSSESSION BEGAN, THE
PRIESTS BLESS THE HOUSE IN
PREPARATION FOR THE MINOR
EXORCISM.
>> IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST I
COMMAND YOU, LEAVE THIS PLACE
AND GO BACK WHERE YOU CAME FROM.
IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST I
COMMAND YOU, LEAVE THIS PLACE
AND GO BACK WHERE YOU CAME FROM.
IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST I
COMMAND YOU, LEAVE THIS PLACE
AND GO BACK WHERE YOU CAME FROM.
IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST I
COMMAND YOU --
>> DEBBIE, THE BELT!
>> IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST I
COMMAND YOU, LEAVE THIS PLACE
AND GO BACK WHERE YOU CAME FROM.
>> [ GRUNTS ]
>> IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST I
COMMAND YOU, LEAVE THIS PLACE
AND GO BACK WHERE YOU CAME FROM.
>> I'M THINKING TO MYSELF, "THIS
HAS GOT TO WORK."
>> LEAVE THIS PLACE AND GO BACK
WHERE YOU CAME FROM.
>> HOW MUCH MORE CAN WE TAKE?
HOW MUCH MORE CAN DAVID TAKE?
>> LORD HAVE MERCY.
>> All: LORD HAVE MERCY.
>> MOST GLORIOUS PRINCE IN THE
HEAVENLY ARMY, ST. MICHAEL THE
ARCHANGEL, DEFEND US IN BATTLE.

>> CLEAR THE ROOM OF THE MOST
CUNNING SERPENT TO DECEIVE THE
HUMAN RACE AND PERSECUTE THE
CHURCH OF GOD.
>> Narrator: THE EXORCISM
CONTINUES FOR HOURS.
>> AAAH!
>> GOD THE FATHER COMMANDS YOU,
GOD THE SON COMMANDS YOU.
>> AND WE JUST HAD TO HOLD HIM
THERE SO THEY COULD DO THEIR
RITUAL.
THEY WERE MAKING THE SIGN OF
THE CROSS, WHICH MADE THIS BEAST
SCREAM AND YELL.
>> [ SCREAMING ]

>> YOU CAN'T BELIEVE HOW
POWERFUL IT IS.

>> UGH!
>> IT'S DAVID!
>> GET THE CHAIR!
>> Narrator: ONE DEMON HAS BEEN
EXORCISED.
>> THE BAD ONES ARE STILL HERE.
>> Narrator: BUT OTHERS REMAIN.
THE EXORCISM GOES ON AS THE
PRIEST DEALS WITH ONE DEMON AT A
TIME.
>> AND THE POWER OF THE CURSED
DRAGON AND EVERY DIABOLICAL
LEGION, WE ADJURE YOU THROUGH
THE LIVING SON OF GOD, THROUGH

THROUGH THE HOLY GOD.
BEGONE SATAN.
>> [ GRUNTING ]
[ PANTING ]
>> Narrator: DAVID IS FINALLY
FREE.
BUT LORRAINE AND THE PRIESTS
HAVE BEEN BATTERED BY A
SPIRITUAL BATTLE WITH UNHOLY
DEMONS.
>> EVERY ONE OF THEM TAKE THEIR
TOLL ON YOU.
THEY DO.
THEY LEAVE SCARS.
SCARS STAY THERE FOREVER.
>> OH!
>> THERE YOU GO, DAVID.
>> WHOA!
>> YOU LIKE THAT?
>> Narrator: DAVID RECOVERS
COMPLETELY AND RESUMES HIS LIFE
AS A NORMAL 12-YEAR-OLD.
>> WHAT ARE THEY DOING?
I'M OPEN, I'M OPEN.
>> Narrator: THE HARROWING
ENCOUNTER BRINGS DEBBIE AND ARNE
EVEN CLOSER TOGETHER.
>> OH, YEAH, WE DID.
OH, BOY.
>> OUR LOVE HAS ONLY GROWN
STRONGER.
I MEAN, HE WAS WILLING TO GIVE
HIS OWN LIFE.
HE WAS WILLING TO SACRIFICE
HIMSELF TO SAVE MY BROTHER.
>> I HOPE PEOPLE THAT ARE OUT
THERE CAN OPEN THEIR MINDS AND
HEARTS AND REALIZE THAT SUCH
THINGS DO EXIST.

ARNE JOHNSON AND DEBBIE GLATZEL
BELIEVE THAT DEMONS STILL HAUNT
THEIR OLD RENTAL PROPERTY...

WAITING...
FOR A NEW VICTIM TO DEVOUR.
