Eli Roth Presents: The Legion of Exorcists

You know, as I was saying,

the family did not have any...

Um, the family did not have, uh, any idea that the, uh...

that, uh...

there was an attachment...

Yes, Bishop?

Evil is on the rise.

Demons battle to possess our souls

and drag us one step closer...

...to Hell.

But now, there is a gathering of spiritual warriors

who defend us against the Devil's minions...

Go back to Hell!

St. Michael the Archangel,

defend us in battle.

...a nd unite to banish the demons in our midst.

These are the true stories

of The Legion of Exorcists.

This may seem like

a harmless antique.

A curiosity you might find at an auction or a yard sale.

Exorcists have encountered relics just like this one,

that harbor a deadly evil.

The Devil can take possession of objects,

using them to reach into our world,

and take control.

You know, what frustrates me is

we live in a society and a culture where people,

for some strange reason, have put demons here...

Yes. - ...and God here.

Yes. - Cursed objects

have become a real, big thing now.

And what people don't understand

is that these items can have attachments,

which can cause serious, serious issues.

These items have demonic attachment

from demonic entities with real power.

And I know firsthand, what these items can do.

So, this day was like any other day.

The phone rings.

So, I pick up the phone, and on the other line

is a mother.

She's not frantic on the phone, but you can tell

that she's frustrated.

She begins to tell me that she is a collector of items.

She loves to collect eccentric items, from all over the world.

Now, she buys and sells antiques,

and she does a really great job, and she makes a good profit.

So she tells me she went to an estate sale,

and there was antiques everywhere.

I mean, valuable paintings.

Statues. But there's one thing that she saw,

and she became obsessed.

[enchanting tones with disturbing frequency playing]

Hey.

Hey. Ready to go?

[continues speaking indistinctly]

- You're not thinking of buying this, are you?

You saw Chucky, right?

Give it back.

The... We bring this in the house, April's gonna have nightmares.

I'm gonna have nightmares.

What's wrong, Mike?

What's wrong, honey?

Honey, tell me what's wrong.

Hey, you'll break it!

What? - I said you'll break it.

Good.

Good. Keep that thing away from me.

What are you talking about? I'm buying it.

No, you're not.

That thing is not coming into our house.

It's beautiful and I want it.

Leigh.

I said I want it. - Leigh.

I mean it.

That thing...

It creeps me out.

All she saw was that doll.

She didn't buy anything else that day.

She didn't want anything else.

She turned paintings away that she could have made a big profit on.

That was the doll she wanted.

Now, the kids, interestingly enough,

wanted nothing to do with it.

And it's not because they don't like clowns, it's because they just

did not like that doll.

Now, the daughter didn't like it. The husband didn't care.

But a few days later,

things continued to happen.

So, how was the science test?

I think I did pretty well.

Yeah. - Good.

Studying pays off. - You think you got an A?

Probably. - Yeah.

What was that?

Scary stuff.

What the...

What is happening?

Now the mom

is saying, "Okay, something is not right."

She thought it was electrical current,

she calls the electrician and they come in that day.

Nothing is wrong. He can't explain what happened.

They found nothing.

And then, a week later,

the entire family was jolted awake

at 2:00 am, with a sound

that no family wants to hear.

Leigh!

Do you have April?

I've got her.

Get outside, hurry.

Move!

Brand new home, it's only a year old.

This is the home that they've always wanted.

Burnt to a crisp.

And they call the fire department,

took about half an hour for them to get there.

By the time they arrived,

from the basement to the roof,

it burnt like you had just engulfed it with jet fuel.

So, while she is telling me this story, I do feel for the family,

because they lost their home.

But I am skeptical.

As an exorcist, we have to be,

'cause we can't believe every single case is demonic, 'cause it's not the case.

Now, truly, the family lost their home,

but I think there must be a logical explanation for that fire.

She invites me out to her home, to see it.

When I pull up, I see this

huge rubble, where this mansion just stood.

That's when the mom said,

"You're not gonna believe what I have for you."

We walked to where the front door would be,

we turned right, and she said,

"This is what I want you to take away from this place."

And I was speechless.

Nothing was there, except this doll.

But the doll wasn't broke, it wasn't cracked.

So, I take it this is the doll.

Be careful.

I'm sorry I ever brought that thing into this house.

It was hot to the touch.

That was when I thought

it had to be a cursed object.

Everything's gonna be all right.

But it's a good thing that you called me.

What...

What does it want from us?

It's... It's not what it wants from you.

It's how it wants to harm you.

Such demons, they...

They don't stop until they've achieved their goal.

Until you're dead.

Lord, I bind this object

and all the evil contained within it.

Let no more demonic forces

remain attached to this family.

In your name... Amen.

So, I take the doll to my storage unit. I purposely

bought a case,

and I was going to bind that demonic entity to this object

with oil, with, uh, blessed salt,

and I placed the doll inside of it.

It never comes out of its case.

So, I would love to tell each of you that this cursed doll,

by the demonic,

is safe and sound in the storage unit, not harming anybody.

But I can't quite tell you that's the case.

I had the opportunity to teach about demonology, possession, and cursed items.

And I jumped at this opportunity.

But it was an opportunity that I will never, ever forget.

And so, the family,

realized that all of their troubles actually began

when the mother purchased this doll

from an estate sale.

This particular cursed item brings with it a, uh,

obsession that factors... Uh-huh.

Bishop Long, in my experience as a psychic medium,

I can feel the presence of the demonic.

But I'm not feeling anything right now.

I was wondering if
