Join Troy and Lisa from American Hauntings at the haunted Mineral Springs Hotel for another night of our “An Evening with…” series of events! This eerie night will include a catered dinner from the Best Western Premier in Alton and it will be served at the hotel, just as they did back in 1914 when the hotel opened. After dinner, author Troy Taylor will be presenting “An Evening with the St. Louis Exorcism,” the true and uncensored story of the infamous St. Louis Exorcism of 1949!
WILL INCLUDE TRUE, UNCENSORED, NEVER-BEFORE-PRESENTED MATERIAL FROM THE CASE — EVEN MORE THAN WAS INCLUDED IN TROY’S BOOK!
In 1949, the Devil came to St. Louis…. Or at least, if you believe the stories that have been told for the last sixty-odd years, a reasonable facsimile of him did. It is a story that has told for almost four generations and one that has inspired books, films and documentaries. It is, without question, one of the most perplexing puzzles of the supernatural in American history. But is the story so mysterious because of the events that occurred --- or because of the bizarre mixture of fact and fantasy that it has become? The story of the 1949 St. Louis Exorcism has become a confusing and convoluted mess over the years. There are so many theories, legends, tales and counter-stories that have been thrown into the mix that it’s become very hard to separate just what is truth and what is fiction in the case — until now!
Whatever you do, don’t miss this chilling night of terror and truth!
AN EVENING WITH THE ST. LOUIS EXORCISM
PRESENTED BY TROY TAYLOR
According to documents and eyewitness accounts, the most famous exorcism in American history occurred in St. Louis, Missouri in 1949 and its story created one of the most enduring mysteries of all time. What really happened in this enigmatic case and how did the events in St. Louis go on to inspire the book and film of “The Exorcist?” And, most importantly, how much of what was reported was true and how much was fiction? Author Troy Taylor spent more than a decade and a half researching the facts behind this chilling story – searching through old records, visiting the sites that still exist and interviewing the surviving witnesses to the strange events. This evening event reveals the updated, true facts of what occurred in St. Louis in 1949 and allows the reader to judge whether the victim in the case, “Robbie Doe,” was really possessed or not.
Starting from the beginning of the case in Maryland, we’ll follow the weird events of the story, debunking myths along the way, and revealing real portions of the case that are more chilling than anything invented by the "urban legends" over the years. Discover interviews and never before published details of the exorcisms in St. Louis and Maryland, the dark events at the house on Roanoke Drive and even stories and legends of what followed the exorcism, including what became of the furniture from the "Exorcism Room" at the old Alexian Brothers Hospital!
This is an eye-opening, often horrifying presentation that is not for the faint of heart and is not to be mistaken for the faux documentaries or shoddy research that has been done in the past. This night will truly set the record straight – a fact that will having you sleeping with the lights on long after you get home!
Limited spots are available!
