Anneliese Michel: This Case Of Possession Inspired ‘The Exorcism Of Emily Rose’ [Video]
If you’ve seen Scott Derrickson’s 2005 film The Exorcism Of Emily Rose, then you’re already vaguely familiar with the story of Anneliese Michel. But instead of being a work of horror fiction, Michel’s story is very real and very terrifying.
Watch Dread: The Unsolved’s Look At The Exorcism Of Anneliese Michel:
At the age of 22, she underwent 67 exorcisms under the supervision of her parents and a Catholic priest. The results were tragic, ending with her death due to malnutrition. She was previously diagnosed with temporal lobe epilepsy and had been treated for depression in a psychiatric facility.
