Publisher's summary

The world's most famous demonologists, Ed and Lorraine Warren, were called in to help an average American family who were assaulted by forces too awesome, too powerful, and too dark to be stopped. It's a true story, supported by dozens of eyewitnesses - neighbors, priests, police, journalists, and researchers.

The grim slaughterhouse of odors.... The deafening pounding.... The hoofed half-man charging down the hall.... The physical attacks, a vicious strangling, failed exorcisms, the succubusm and the final terror which continued to torment the Smurls.

In this shocking, terrifying, deeply absorbing book rivaled only by The Amityville Horror, a case also investigated by the Warrens, journalist Robert Curran digs deep into the haunting of the Smurl home in West Pittston, Pennsylvania, and the unshakeable family bonds that helped them survive.

Great Story

This was a lot better than I expected and seems a more convincing account than something like Amityville
Engrossing and detailed it really gripped me from start to finish

Alot of scary details

There were many events in this book that did not occur in the Conjuring events, assuming that is what this is based off ? It was scary as hell

Interesting

This was a really creepy book. I saw this movie on it but of course the book goes more in detail. The spiritual world is real but this book does seem extreme. True enough there are demonic forces out there. Only in the Name of Jesus Christ and His Blood can these dark forces be defeated. The narrator did an excellent job. Brought the characters to life.

Captivating, haunting, and sad!

I really love this audio book! at first I was a bit distracted by the narrator's voice, but he was so good at all the different character voices! I grew to really enjoy the story and the narration! there's some really haunting and scary parts that suck with you! I couldn't wait to get back in my car to listen to more of the story. I would make up reasons to leave the house and run errands just to listen!

The end is abrupt

I would have moved a lot sooner. Not everyone is so smart. Interesting book though

Loved It!

Wow, I have been trying to find this book since I saw the made for TV movie back in the 90s. The movie didn't do the book justice. This poor family went through so much. Things that would have driven me mad. It's a good account of their experience. Many parts scared me so much I had to stop listening and take a break. I highly recommend.
