Let’s take a look back at the tragic story of Anneliese Michel whose life and death inspired the 2005 film, The Exorcism of Emily Rose.🌹 
Anneliese was born in 1952 in to a strict Catholic family to a mother who had already lost a daughter, Martha, who died at the age of eight. She was pressured into leading a pious life and attended mass twice a week. 
Anneliese went on the suffer neuroses linked to religious iconography as a result of her zealous parents.
In 1973 she began suffering hallucinations while praying and became convinced that she was damned and the devil was inside of her. She turned to priests for help but her behavior became more extreme. As she began avoiding religious items like crosses and holy water, priests realized she was showing signs of demonic possession and after months of pleading from her parents, the church agreed to perform an exorcism.
Fathers Arnold Renz and Ernst Alt, two priests from the local parish, were given the job of performing a secret exorcism and over the next ten months, Anneliese underwent 67 one-hour exorcism sessions - and the clergymen noted at least SIX demons inside of her, each of them more evil than the last. As the exorcisms went on, Anneliese stopped eating and became increasingly frail but she still had to be held down and even chained up while the priests tried to force the demons out of her.
When she died in 1976, her autopsy revealed she had broken teeth, bruised limbs and black eyes - but before she died the priests claimed to have seen stigmata on her hands and feet. 
Did you know about Anneliese Michel or did you think that the film, The Exorcism Of Emily Rose was complete fiction?
