Grab an old priest, young priest, and add a squirt of holy water to your sangria, cuz HHP is unearthing true reports of the religious ritual known as “exorcism." Made infamous by the 70s horror classic “The Exorcist,” parishes around the globe have seen sharp increases in pleas for help with demonic possessions in the last 10 years. Team Edward presents the story of Kyong-A Ha, an Oakland resident who turned to the Bay Area’s very questionable Jesus-Amen Church for help freeing her soul from the clutches of Satan. Team Kimberly serves the tale of the Ammons Family, whose Gary, Indiana home allegedly let demons from hell into the bodies of the family’s young children in front of law enforcement AND child protective services. Historian Bond Ruggles, religion and horror expert Dr. Brandon Grafius, and recovering Mormon missionary Jared Loper team up as guest judges to crown one demonic story the winner, advocate for less binary approaches to “good” and “evil,” and analyze whether Jared really did miracle heal a blind guy in a Las Vegas parking lot one time.
