- Опубликовано: 30 окт 2018
- One of the most profitable and well-known horror films of all time, The Exorcist is a 1973 American supernatural thriller adapted from William Peter Blatty's novel of the same name. The film centers around the demonic possession of a 12-year-old girl and her mother's attempts to rid her daughter of the evil spirit through an exorcism conducted by priests. A chilling and frightening film, the true story of Roland Doe, the young man the novel was based on, is even more haunting.

If you don't pay your exorcist, do you get repossessed?
LMAO!
In Soviet Russia, ... you possess... demon?
I see what you did there...
Bahaha!! Well played my friend.
Nice! :D

Ham Sandwich saaaame

Found it about a week ago - pretty sure I've watched 90% already
My right ear is sad
Now my left ear is sad and scared
The Exorcism took place in St. Louis Missouri, not Louisiana.
It took place in 1949 at Alexian Brothers Hospital in South St. Louis.
I worked there in the early 70s and was given a first hand tour by a Jesuit Priest. Though it was maintained as a Patient Room, the room where the Rite was performed was never used again after that day.
Can you sent me some pictures of that Mr Richard
@@mr.authentic2505 It was the fucking 70s
Not saying they didnt have a camera, Im saying that no one would want to take pictures
rrosko according to my friend (which was there to)took one photo then early on died I feel like he was taken(bet you know what I mean)
Have you re-visited the hospital recently?
it bugs me how his parents took him to shrinks when Roland started behaving strange in beginning but the shrinks were like yeah whatever he fine but then later after everything's over, psychiatrists suddenly rise and call him a bluff
Gotta remember when it was. There are lots of things which are recognised conditions now which years ago were seen as just attention seeking or bad behaviour. The old "cure" for ADHD was a leather belt.
That's what doctors do when they're paid to hear but not listen.
Where would you take your child if they were showing signs of mental issues ?
The shrinks didn't know better some do and some don't but now it's 50/50 but you have to consider if it's real or not 🚫..... just think 🤔 about it
@@garycarpenter2980 50/50 if it's a mental disorder or some invisible never been seen or proven to exist demon has possessed him and used it's supernatural powers to make him say rude things and act crazy ? I would say it's more 100% mental issue that needs treatment by professional doctors.
There’s an excellent documentary on YT about this case.
Never, ever use a Ouija board - just my opinion.
Could you send link? Please 😃
Ahh used the Ouija board 3 times and I'm still doing alright mate, still skeptical about it but send that link im low-key tryna see that😂
Hasbro has been making OuijaBoards for kids aged 8 and up, since 1991. (From 1966 to 1991, they were made by ParkerBrothers. Prior to that, they were made by Fuld, and various competitors.) We're talking about a toy that has been semi-popular for about a century. These days, you can buy "StrangerThings" themed OuijaBoards if you want, and I'm sure there are other options too.
They wouldn't be such a long-lasting kids toys if they did anything bad, and someone would have video-taped it by now. All the fear of Ouija is clever marketing for a boring toy. If someone in your group doesn't push the puck around and act spooky, then it's boring as hell.
If you're interested in these sorts of "trick your friends" toys, then get a flea-circus. They're funnier.
Ouija boards are literal toys made by Hasbro you dope.
@@robotnoir5299 I've tried this for fun & didn't have any known trouble. The scary part was once when the puck refused to move.
The guy I tried it with was older & had some serious secretness about him.
I got chills when nothing connected & we were alone. I just left & he didn't restrain me in any way, but the whole situation just seemed very off & awkward. Glad he moved away.
Bro I’m scared bro
Lacrosse Boi same here
Lacrosse Boi bro I know bro what you mean bro, bro
Bro bro bro
Bro. I gotchu bro. I play lax too bro.

"demonic possession" can be easily explained as schizophrenia, epileptic seizures, munchausen syndrome etc
Yup
You can also call evolution the big bang, perspective my friend. It's all the same shit, it comes down to perspective and language, of which, do not change or alter the actual truth of an event.
Those things always have history and cause and can be diagnosed. The real demonic possession happen to sane people, even someone can call the demon to possess someone. Trust there are many ritual that dealing with demon, djinn, ghost, or whatever around the globe.
Finally someone with a scientific explanation in these comments
@@rosecah not always true
Hold on, let me just turn on all the lights in my room first.

i turned them off 💀
“Roland Doe’s” real name was Ronald Hunkeler. He later went on to work for NASA & named his son Michael after the Archangel who cast out the demon. He’s never spoken publicly & will allegedly hang up on journalists who try to contact him. Also, there used to be a pdf if Father Bowdern’s journal that was available online, although heavily redacted. A couple sites have transcribed it though. His journal entries about the ordeal was far more chilling than the movie.
Ronald admitted to making up the possession....article in NY Post about his passing.... "According to Hunkeler’s companion, the man himself never believed that he was the victim of satanic possession and he shunned religion. “He said he wasn’t possessed, it was all concocted,” said the companion. “He said, ‘I was just a bad boy.'”
I went to St Louis University and I saw the door, which behind lead to the room where Roland was kept. After I read Father Bowden's essay on the exorcist itself, had to go look.
It gave me the creeps then and still does.
It was in an an assuming hallway on the upper floors of Jesuit Hall which they have since removed gone no longer on the building... gone. The structure is an adjacent building from the church bit not the church itself, like at one time wing might've been looked at as an annex for the main structure, the church.
From street level outside Jesuit Hall in the quad where this room Roland was held, there were three black boarded up windows that could be seen. They had to be on the 4th or 5th floor it was disorienting walking around this building because of the side stairwells and half floor stairwells. There was no elevator or straight shot set of stairs in this building.
The day I saw this door it was 1985 I was 27yo and I got down on my hands and knees to look under the door (it had about 2" clearance to the floor, quite a gap to be honest everything on this buildings floor was warped beyond level the floor itself had a tilt to it) ...When I looked under the door I saw some steps going up that was it.
To know Satan was up there fuck me, I was gone!
Pardon my french.
Actually I was with a girl, (Hi Julie, if you read this) a classmate and she looked also so I paced, I could tell it gave her the creeps, we never talked about it.
The word 'HELL' was gouged deeply into the door, a 9ft tall I'm guessing maybe 2-3/4" thick solid wood early 1800's style door that would have cost thousands of dollars to replace so they kept painting over the word 'HELL' .
Black... And the door was probably warped shut.
Anyone who saw it will attest.
As God is my witness.
I'm a Sluzer as well. Started in the fall of 90 when the soccer field opened up. I stayed in Griesedeck on the 14th floor. I think I just butchered the name of that dorm. SLU was haunted. You had to be a bit open to tell.
@@madrasta420 Good to make your acquaintance, it is/was the largest (in '85) catholic school west of the Mississippi, ensuring things have occurred which linger. That church end of the school where admin financial aid etc was creeped me out after my experience a few floors up.
I had a painting project and I had keys to the classroom Prof Tom Toner loaned them to me and I was in that building the one on the Spring Ave side of the quad. IT&T tech used to be there. Anyway I heard some things which I attributed to other people in the building which there were so I wrote it off but were there? My point is you are right it is haunted.
What a crock of shit
Quija is no joke. I’m still amazed how it’s in the kids toy section
That's actually a sinister thought.
Greatest horror of all time......this groundbreaking movie , ...set a new trend in the horror genre,...MASTERPIECE
Funny that the supernatural stuff happened around a woman who was already very interested in supernatural stuff. 🤔
Ethan H. you know it happen to her nephew not to the aunt right? and that it has happen to more than just this one boy this boy and Emily rose are just the only ones who had a book and a movie made about them but there are other stories out there and the books where not made right after but years after so if you think it was just a way to get money that wouldn't make sense since they never got the money made
@edwin younes You Sir are a fuckin idiot
edwin younes dumb ass
@edwin younes I guess thats why he mysteriously got better after a bath.. because all mental illnesses can be washed away right !?
“You often eventually find what you’re looking for”
It was St. Louis Missouri not Louisiana at Alexian Brothers Hospital. He had family that lived in north county.
Actually, St. Alexius is what the hospital is called now, it is definitely in St. Louis, MO. The family did move to St. Louis from the east coast though, and lived in North County when it was a little less dangerous.
Source: I was a resident at St. Louis University in the Psychiatry department, one of the hospitals we worked at was St. Alexius. There’s actually documentation within the hospital’s historical records about it.
A+ video!
Another awesome horror history, so well-done!
Are the audio channels wonky for anyone else? It's a bit weighted to the left.
Otherwise, great video :) Looking forward to more!
A bit is an understatement
Have you checked your headphones? Or the audio balancing on your computer/phone ;)
@@ryanhovey4251 Dude here are 3 people who experience the same problem. Do you really think that we all have nothing better to do than commenting away before checking everything?
LoomingShare I just commented. Its horrible can't watch
Holy shit finally!! Your last video was 3 months ago!!
We're back, baby!
I am scared so I am. Trying to distract myself by Reading the comments 😂
Who you telling! Lol, I live in Maryland. I'm like let me know where it started so I can stay away... or move... depending on the location...
Yessss more of these spooky ones please! 🍺🤘
As pre-teens, we played with Ouija boards dozens of times without incident. Sounds to me like there were some other things going on with this boy and his family, including mental health.
You got lucky
Hell all the black people people they killed they ought to see hell of demons. I don't even get scared bcuz we are the demons aka Damian they talk about in these movies.
Y'all playing with that Ouija board probably caused a demon to release coronavirus on the world...
@@mattyisfantastic 😂🤣😂🤣
We did too, loads of people did, nothing happens, you can say Bloody Mary into a mirror three times too lol
Roland saying "I am legions" is a reference to the story in the bible where a man is possessed by demons and says he is legions, referring to a Roman legion, which is around 9,000. The parallel is just a bit spooky
Mia Torres I think he just had mental illness
@@Mkhan-cw9rx maybe, but I think he had 9000 demons up his asshole
“I am legion” essentially translates to “I am many,” which is what the response was when Jesus was speaking to a possessed man & ordered the demon to tell him its name. Commanding the demon to give its name is still common practice in exorcisms today.
How is the parallel spooky? Sure the child new the Bible. He grew up in a religious home.
@@whitney524 Exorcisms are common today? Do tell.
Chills down the spine ..
From my understanding, Roland lived in a home in St. Louis Missouri during the time of the possession yet the channel here indicates Maryland. This is the first time I heard about the location regardless of all the possessions I studied about. Then the channel mentions St. Louis Louisiana . To clearify the truth, which location was it? I am very confused on it and I studied many incidents in the past up to the most current.
Exactly I posted full details above yours.
"Most people don't know"
I mean, literally everyone knows. It says it at the beggining of the film, and on the book. Good to see that apparently most people can't read.
Nice content man 👌
Do more vids like this! I love these!
Decent story, except for a few mistakes. Most prominantly, it was Saint Louis MISSOURI. St. Alexius Hospital and the Catholic White House Retreat to be precise. The quaint suburban home that was taken over by the family can still be viewed/visited to this day. That home along with the Lemp Brewery and Zombie Rd (if you can dodge & duck the County sponsored pirates known as the Stl PD) make Cardinal Nation a fun place for ghost hunting. With the area being a consistently inhabited settlement since the 1600's when the frogs (French) and kiddy-diddlers (Priests) first stepped off their river boats, we got a BUNCH of spiffy historically spooky places. Just make sure to carry a sidearm if you go to Bellefontaine or Cavalry Cemeteries. They are REALLY neat, just in a scary area (for different and crime related reasons). Happy hunting!!
I love The Exorcist so much - and the book is very interesting - but it's definitely not the scariest movie I've ever seen.
Which one was? I love horror, I can honestly pinpoint the ones I've found the scariest.
@@danamichelle1290 Well, I couldn't make it through Mercy so maybe that. The best horror thing I've ever seen, though, was The Haunting of Hill House - it was just beautiful and made me cry.
This one scared me the most as a kid though. Movies now are just full of jump-scares.
One scene in The Exorcism of Emily Rose scared tf out of me back in 2009, until I read the actual story and was learning more about mental illnesses instead of scary demons
Pet Sematary. Zelda screwed my head up as a teen. Lol.
Thanks, Weird History. A nice creepy start to All Hallows Eve, 2018!
Glad you enjoyed it! Happy Halloween!
I watching this movie with my mother when i was in the 6th grade, at a Catholic school!
So i was properly terrified.
Wow it's so amazing how Saint Michael the Archangel freed the boy from the devil's grip
He defeated the devil
Awesome!
You are amazing bro
If possession was really possible you’d think it would happen more regularly
could be a very rare
It happens more often than you know it’s just that it is not widely accepted so you never hear about it. If you look into it you will see that it happens.
It happens much more than we know because it's usually diagnosed as schizophrenia or some form of mental illness that there is no cure for leaving people to suffer their entire lives so some doctor can continue prescribing medication that does nothing but keep people doped up
@@kcobbx63 According to priests whithin the Catholic church. Real possession is rare. Most cases they get have an medical, psychological answer.
2. I love your vids
Must be true, because priests are always honest...
Not always
@@kgirls416 it is a joke
What they failed to point out is that possessions seem to proliferate during racial tensions...I read the original account....this was pointed out in the book...
None of the priests involved had ever performed an exorcism prior to this event and was not trained to investigate a case either. And one priest has in an interview stated that he did not think the boy spoke latin at all. He simply mimicked what he heard the priests say.
No experience? They were way in over their head...not the best position to be in when confronting demons...
@@misskdramaqueen or confronting a fake. The thing is that the latter has been verified to exist. The former has not been verified to exist.
I get use to a voice narrating a video and when its changed up or a channel that uses multiple people to narrate, i just cant bring myself to get use to multiple narrators .Dont know why its a "weird" thing but i cant. I find myself looking for videos with the voice of original narrator that caught my attention to the channel .
I vaguely recall hearing once that my grandmother either knew or lived on the same street as the boy.
Could you do a video on the real haunting that inspired the movie Poltergeist?
I literally just watched the exorcist last night. I still don't know what that artifact from the dessert did.
I never understood that part
Was it a glacé cherry or a spoon?
If I remember correctly, the artifact from the desert was the demon that possesed the girl.
In one of the scenes the same image apears next to her bed, only it was tall as hell
if it was shaped like a hollow tube, it was most likely a straw. another commonly used artifact in desserts is the spoon, which is like a tiny shovel.
That was a statue of pazuzu, a demon that ate demons, That was what was possessing regan, not the devil.
been a while!
Roland died in 2020 (1935-2020) according to an ID documentary. He was successful in life. Studied and worked for NASA as an engineer. He patented a special technology to make space shuttle panels resistant to extreme heat. He was a family man with several children. Never spoke about the experience in public.
"Hunkeler’s companion told the Post he was not religious and had later admitted to her that he was never actually demented.
“He said he wasn’t possessed, it was all concocted,” said the companion. “He said, ‘I was just a bad boy’.”
National Post (2021): Inspiration for the movie 'The Exorcist' has been identified as former NASA engineer
His identity was revealed after his death.
That poster of the girl upside down looks so cool.
Interesting....
I’m you 100,000 subscriber
Never have seances nor use ouija boards. You don’t know what you are unleashing.
What was the song in the background?
We have a radio station that used to be a Civil War Union post. The night shift at the radio station reported hearing the sounds marching and order being shouted at night in the building, but when the security would investigate, they found nothing.
Was not ....Saint Louis Louisiana. It was Saint Louis Missouri ! ....I grew up just a few blocks away from Saint Alexis Or aka Alexian Brothers Hospitial where the boy received his exorcism in 1948.
Glad someone said this...
how does one “properly use” a board
Hey you have been screaming that means there's a devil in you
It's a fact
I am not sure if thee is an afterlife. I am pretty sure I saw a ghost at an old motel, not far from Salem, MA, when I was a kid. It was about mid-night and had to hit the jon, which was outside in the middle of the corridor. When I saw a human like figure on the other side. It was an elderly aged woman dressed in old school maid clothing. We made eye contact. I was not scared, but I just waved and she smiled at me. I stood still trying to figure out if witch was still foamy. actually happening or just dreaming. In the bathroom, I pissed as fast as I could, washed my hands, and bounced back to my room. But before that, I drew a cross on the mirror with the bar of soap which was still foamy. Next morning, the faint mark I made was still visible on the mirror. I don't scare easily. I have been in combat in Iraq. But something I would never do is mess with a ouija board. I believe if you fuck around with that shit without fully understanding it, can be dangerous may actually summon evil that will never leave you. Absolutely never mess with artifacts like that.
these guys really went up the ladder to archangel micheal lol
OOOH THIS IS GONNA BE GOOD
Don't look behind you
How?
Thanks a lot dude, now I'm scared shitless
Nice try but my back is a wall
@Weird History, this happened in St Louis, MO, not Louisiana. St Louis also has the Lemp Mansion that is famously known as being haunted.
Demons nothing more nothing less
Only a few know the truth
Or it's just a crazy person. Occams razor et al.
Fun fact- William Peter Blatty was a comedy writer and this was his first attempt at writing a thriller
I read the book. Yes, I know the book is always better than the movie but this book was downright horrid. I was 14 yrs old when I read it (I'm now 48). Trust and believe this isn't a read for a 14 yr old girl!
Well I thought it was hilarious
Yay!!!
*It happened in St. Louis, MO not St. Louis, Louisiana*
lol the little boys fade at 1:54
I noticed your shot of the Bible was between two Presbyterian hymnals.
That's it? I waited for a 6 minute video.....Don't get me wrong I love your channel and the video is good I was hoping for a a documentary type video
Guess you did!

@@WeirdHistory DAMN LOL
St.Louis,Louisiana?Wrong info bro
Oh my
This is the only thing that scares me
You missed the fact that this was in St Louis, Missouri. I live here now. Its common knowledge around these parts.
The National Enquirer called...they want their story back...
The boy's name was ronald huenkler. He wound up working for nasa and would not discuss the incident ever. as of a few years ago hw was still alive. i have not heard that he had passed.
David S. I’ve heard he still lives in the suburbs outside of DC. I’ve always wondered if his kids will come out & talk after he passes
I watched 1 minute of this and said naaaaaaahhhh hahaha im just too scared 😒
" Can yer help an ole old alterboy father "
I live a few houses down from the authors house!
Why does the house look so average yet so creepy!
Ghost Story by Kevin Macleod, nice
He probably used the Ouija board by himself, multiple times. Not a good idea.
St. Louis Missouri
I don't think it was either a cry for attention nor possession. I think it was the strict inhumanely religious catholic environment and family dynamics affecting a sensitive, suggestible child/teen. It's no wonder the things happen at the beginnings of puberty. In a severely catolic household you can imagine that many very vital impulses and emotions and thoughts are supressed. Any kind of anger or aggression against your parents or religious authorities. Any laziness. Maybe even silliness. And, of course, blossoming sexual reactions and feelings. It is easy to imagine that a sensitive and obiedient more introverted child would try to suppress any of that. But being sesitive he feels something is "not right" with him. And he starts to turn against himself in a conflict between his own internal instances. The instance that wants and desperately needs to be "a good boy", a "good human" as defined by his strict religious parents and the priests, and the instance that feels there are conflicting impulses, thoughts, emotions, urges within him. He might simultaneously think he is bad, the devil etc. - giving in to the suggestive nature of what he has been taught - and also might have an ambivalent state of aggression against the strict rules. To me that would totally explain him staring at the bible in a moment if acute exitation, adilts standing around him, suggesting he is the devil for, probably, just being a normal kid growing up with normal feelings. I bet its the result of the incapability of his family and authoritarian figures to cope with certain domains of life and recognizing them as evil instead of natural. And tbe exocorsims are some type of acted out psychodrama where the "possesed" unknowingly is taking over the part that has been assigned to them
Interesting theory. I can attest to how pathological sexual repression can be in devoutly Catholic families.
I just find the fact this occurred within three years of the end of WWII possibly important.
Dude I live in Maryland so that’s too close
I share a birthday with Ellen Burstyn and Jennifer Carpenter.
Interestingly, Ellen Burstyn plays the mother Chris in the Exorcist and Jennifer Carpenter plays Emily Rose in The Exorcism of Emily Rose.

Wrong the family never moved to St. Louis Louisiana, the family moved to St. Louis Missouri where Tilly and he was laid to rest. A video of both their graves and hospital, the actual room with artifacts from the priest and the graves of the three priest all in the same video where he was treated is on the "faces of the forgotten" of RUclips channel with full accurate details in this.

The family were not Catholics originally; they were Lutherans, and they moved to St. Louis, MO., not Louisiana.
