Anneliese Michel: The Exorcism Tapes
Description
Have you ever seen the 2005 supernatural horror movie, “The Exorcism of Emily Rose”? Tonight I’m talking about the true story that inspired the hit flick.
Anneliese Michel was a deeply religious young lady from Klingenberg, Bavaria, who had suffered from epilepsy and mental health issues for several years. Despite undergoing multiple medical treatments, her condition worsened, leading her family and two local priests to believe she was possessed. To rid her body and soul of the demonic entity, 70 exorcism rituals were conducted in secret at her home.
Though she was a physically sick young lady, her medical treatments were stopped, as her family and the priests focused on the exorcism rites. These sessions took place in her bedroom and were intended to rid her of demonic possession. However, Anneliese’s health severely deteriorated, and she ultimately succumbed to malnutrition and dehydration, weighing just 68 pounds at the time of her death.
The case of Anneliese Michel drew significant attention, especially in Bavaria, a predominantly Catholic region. The state prosecutor argued that her death could have been prevented if medical intervention had been sought, even if only in the final week of her life. Her parents and the priests were charged with negligent homicide for failing to call a doctor, despite her worsening condition during the exorcism rituals - but some still believe Anneliese died from possession - not neglect.
