This item was gathered by my father on Aug. 26, 1992 as he visited this spot. In 1949, priests performed an exorcism on a boy referred to as "Roland Doe," a.k.a. Ronald Hunkeler, in a chilling ordeal that became the real-life inspiration for The Exorcist. The story began in January 1949 in Washington, D.C., where 13-year-old Ronald Hunkeler, a.k.a. Roland Doe began exhibiting disturbing behavior that left his parents baffled and terrified. He was calm and normal during the day, but at night, he would suddenly erupt into screaming fits and other wild outbursts. Meanwhile, he would enter a trance-like state, make sounds in a guttural voice, and break out in scratches and red lines all over his body. After getting nowhere with doctors, his horrified parents brought him to where their relatives lived in St. Louis and called in Jesuit priests to carry out a harrowing series of exorcisms. As they desperately tried to wrest the demons from his body, they claimed that the boy’s bed moved on its own, slid violently across the room, and knocked them over. Finally, on April 18, the priests laid holy relics and crucifixes upon Ronald, shouting at Satan and telling the demon that St. Michael would battle him for the boy’s soul. Seven minutes later, Ronald came out of his trance and told them simply, “He’s gone.” The exorcism was led by Father William Bowdern, pastor of the church on the campus of St Louis University When Father Walter Halloran — a student at the time who assisted with the exorcism — was later asked what the most frightening part of the ordeal was, he admitted: 'the markings on the boy’s body' Stay tuned for more to come. We will be releasing more relics we have gathered from other sites all over America soon!
