This week on Lunatic Soup, we dig into the real 1949 case that inspired The Exorcist: the exorcism of the boy long known as “Roland Doe.” We break down the documented events from Maryland to St. Louis, the priests’ eyewitness accounts, the diary entries, the medical theories, and the decades‑long secrecy surrounding the boy now believed to be Ronald Hunkeler.
