VIDEO: Exorcism: Live! Creator: 'I Dare You Not to Be Scared'
This Halloween Eve, one network will try to give viewers a real scare with the first-ever exorcism televised and streamed in real time.
Discovery America's Exorcism: Live! will show psychic medium Chip Coffey, Bishop James Long and the reality stars of Ghost Asylum trying to cleanse the Missouri home where the child whose story inspired the 1971 The Exorcistnovel and 1973 film lived while allegedly possessed in the '40s.
In 1991, 20/20 aired the first televised exorcism, showing a Catholic priest supposedly dispel a demon from a 16-year-old Florida girl named Gina, and 29 million people tuned in. But Discovery America's TV event is the first live one in history.
PEOPLE has the exclusive first look the special and got the inside scoop from creator Jodi Tovay, senior manager of development and production at Discovery. Read on to learn how she was inspired by her own supernatural encounter – and what terrified Coffey the first time he entered the home.
