Summary: The Power of God compells you!
Comment: You all have got to be kidding! You call yourself a horror fan, and you still haven't read The Exorcist? Oh, you've seen the movie? It's not the same darn thing!! This book will terrify you to all lengths that one can go. If you're like me, you'll sit in bed nearly all night, lights off, covers over your head, and a flashlight in hand...reading. Knowing you have to get up early the next morning, you lock up your conscience in the wraths of Hell and indulge yourself in one the most terrifying, gripping, and elusive horror novels of all time: The Exorcist. Don't you DARE call yourself a fan of horror (I don't care how many Stephen King books you've read) until you take a look at The Exorcist. It may change how you look at the little things in life...ouija boards, divorces, and nerves. May want to take a closer look after reading this novel.

I can't help my self...I have to say it...GREAT JOB WILLIE!

Summary: An excellent & terrifying novel...
Comment: I first read this book during my last year of college. I really became absorbed in it...I couldn't put the novel down for 3 consecutive days. Blatty presents various psychiatric & neurological conditions to explain the bizarre phenomena occurring within the MacNeil household...but at the end, the reader is forced to accept the concept of demonic possession. One of the most chilling sections in the novel occurs when Detective Kinderman tries to research Satanism...reading the description of satanic rituals/rites was quite disturbing for me...even at the age of 21 when maturity should temper shocking material. The rising tension & suspense created by the novel was great...and I certainly had some difficulty falling asleep during the 3-day span of time I spent in completing the book. Moreover, I kept pondering the themes of the book (the nature & existence of Evil) for a long while afterwards. The Exorcist galvanized me to explore the genre of the supernatural, the occult, & the dark aspect of the human experience.

Summary: The exorcist
Comment: The exorcist
In the book the exorcist it is about a girl that is possessed. I have the movie and I just loved the movie so much that I had to read the book sure it was long and sure some parts are boreing. But overall I loved the book i would recomend it to any one that are the ages of teens or higher.
I have always been intrested in the exorcist,and I actually want to buy a oijia board but I think that is to extreem.In the book the exorcist there are alot of reasons that I love the book. One reason that I like the book is because i always have been intrested in that kind of stuff being possessed.I also like it because it can actually happen to a person in real life.In the book the mother took reagan "the daughter who is possessed" to the hospital.Regan got a cat scan they heavily sedated her, The doctor pulled the mother aside and he said"I think the problem isnt your daughters mind its her brain". The mother didnt believe it but it winded up the girl was possessed but no one knew til the end of the story.
Another part in the story I really like is when ever regans butler surprizingly fell out of regans window. The mother made sure that the window was closed, and all so he would not of just opened the window buy him self and pushed himself out. Another thing with the butler falling out of the window was,he twisted his neck as"The only way he could twist and break his neck like that would be buy a extreemly powerfull man".They didnt think about it like a normal person wouldent think about it. They started to talk about,regan but the mother said that she was highly sedated and she was even asleap when she got home that night he fell out the window.So they thought that it couldent of been her.
The last event in the story that makes me like it alot more would be,the finial part when they put regan through an exorcist.Reading the book even makes chills run down your spine because you can immagine.A demon saying "Your mother is in with us karras".That would pretty much freak me out if I was in the room with us expecially because I have seen a ghost. What happened in the end was, the exorcist really didnt work out the way they planed it to. Father Karras said "take me" and the deamon went into father, and he fell down the steps.He broke his neck the same exact way that the butler did so they finaly figured out That it was regan all along.
In conclusion this book was a extreemly good book and I would highly recomend it to any one who likes pathological stories. I give this book a 10/10 due to exerything about it,it is by far my favorite book of all time.
