When a young Lutheran boy who dabbled in spiritualism and ouija boards starts speaking in Latin, growling, and moving the furniture around, his parents knew exactly what to do: call the Catholics. This week, Hannah tells Katy about the possessed teenager who inspired the 1971 horror classic, The Exorcist. In the process, they both learn a thing or two about Protestantism, how many Bishops it takes to get rid of 1-10 demons, and how to interpret signs ands symbols carved into skin. Katy plays devil's advocate on all things Catholic, and the girls discuss the importance of mental health awareness, especially if you think you or someone you know is "possessed".
Polish up those rosaries, and pour a glass of the leftover communion wine for this creepy tale of the devil at work.
