The Exorcism of Anneliese Michel
Manage episode 347365480 series 2987855
Do you believe in demons? In the Roman Catholic Church, the rite of exorcism is a restricted practice with strict guidelines for what can qualify. Anneliese Michel was a student who started to experience symptoms of epilepsy as a teenager, but every medical treatment she tried seemed to fail and she proceeded to get worse. Having grown up in an extremely devout Catholic family, those around her began to suspect her symptoms weren't related to mental or physical illness at all, but of demonic possession. After repeated appeals to bishops in the provincial, local area of southern German, one bishop finally approved the request which led deadly consequences. Join us for our season finale as Briana takes us through the ins and outs of this tragic case and we discuss some of the issues with balancing faith and religion with modern medicine.
