Episode #11 - THE CURSE OF THE EXORCIST

In this episode, Austin and Fernando discuss the alleged curse of The Exorcist movie! According to members of the cast and crew, a series of misfortune plagued many of the individuals who worked on The Exorcist production. This ranges from sets catching on fire all the way to cast and crew members losing their lives!

According to many of the people who worked on the film, there were multiple deaths that could be tied both directly and indirectly to development of The Exorcist. For example, both Jack McGowan (who played Burke Dennings) and Vasiliki Maliaros (who played Father Karras’ mother) passed away shortly after wrapping up filming of their respective parts. Eerily, both of their characters also died in the movie. Additionally, a set technician and night watchman also passed during filming. By now, talks of a potential curse on set were beginning to swirl.

Unfortunately, the suspected lethality of this movie was not just limited to those who physically worked on the production floor. Additionally, many of the actors lost very close family members during this period. This included Max Von Sydow’s brother (Sydow played Father Lankester Merrin), the assistant cameraman’s baby, and Linda Blair’s aforementioned grandfather. Furthermore, one of the radiographers (named Paul Bateson) went on to become a convicted murderer (and many believe that he was actually a serial killer).

To cap it all off, towards the end of filming, the production faced an extreme setback that came in the form of a massive fire. In the aftermath of the incident, the “MacNeil household” set was lost and had to be completely rebuilt. Oddly, the only part of the set that was completely untouched by the blaze was Regan’s room. After a brief investigation, it was determined that the cause of the fire was due to a pigeon that had apparently flown into a circuit box. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------If you liked the show, please consider giving us a thumbs up and subscribing if you want more spooky content!If you’d like to watch our podcasts, feel free to follow us over on your favorite audio streaming platform!And if you’d like to reach out to us with questions or suggestions, you can email us at yougofirst.tv@gmail.comRemember to stay spooky!----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Check out more of our podcast episodes on YouTube down below!https://youtu.be/s9bgdRFUuvMhttps://youtu.be/OiCEo1Ls_h4https://youtu.be/mCIx-tIK3J0https://youtu.be/2GIgJlo-etkhttps://youtu.be/VMzRkKrZ-wMhttps://youtu.be/rpHyTXk3d7ghttps://youtu.be/7agFYAMviSQ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------If you like spooky video games, come join us over on YouTube @yougofirstgaminghttps://youtu.be/bn0jdzIzAvAhttps://youtu.be/aOhc-hidZkAhttps://youtu.be/FA9DGMt9XUchttps://youtu.be/2dUXpIVt32Ihttps://youtu.be/_jbe7HOsQ5khttps://youtu.be/Pl-ucSGXcnUhttps://youtu.be/NrBgmaZxY9Ehttps://youtu.be/FF1EyVjOcGkhttps://youtu.be/oBKxclrIfW8https://youtu.be/wyFUKOhOK10https://youtu.be/20TSuD9MQa0https://youtu.be/jqY5Y_9lLZchttps://youtu.be/QaNWQ7mPlqEhttps://youtu.be/oyKACLnQB40https://youtu.be/UOM7Mg8U5hAhttps://youtu.be/624atTmQBLghttps://youtu.be/ThL8QJaANHQhttps://youtu.be/opbjUTxmP6Uhttps://youtu.be/gNRK6fjCN5Ihttps://youtu.be/H3eyuc0Indshttps://youtu.be/4yjsVqfSyIQhttps://youtu.be/EnGuThs5vschttps://youtu.be/HF9Ep-PaOns----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Check out our socials:https://twitter.com/YouGoFirst_tvhttps://www.instagram.com/you_go_first.tv/----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#spookypodcast #horrorpodcast #theexorcist----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
