Welcome to The Possession Files - a three-part Halloween series
investigating real historical accounts of alleged
possession.

These aren’t tales of spinning heads or Hollywood demons, but
stories drawn from documented cases where something darker and
far harder to explain seemed to take hold.

In this opening episode, we travel to Romania to examine the
extraordinary story of Elenore Zugun - one of the real-life cases
said to have inspired the 1973 film The Exorcist.

Branded ‘The Devil’s Girl,’ Elenore became, between 1925 and
1927, the centre of one of Europe’s most unsettling and
well-documented hauntings. Stones flew, objects moved, and
witnesses swore unseen forces were at work. The case has
fascinated me for decades, and it sets the tone for the episodes
to follow.

As the series continues, The Possession Files will return to
Scotland, exploring centuries-old records where possession was
more than myth - from documented exorcisms to 16th-century cases
that still echo through history.
