From the Devil to Dracula, from exorcism to Voodoo, this spine-tingling, third installment of the HAUNTED HISTORIES COLLECTION explores the darkest recesses of evil around the world and through the ages. BLOODLINES: THE DRACULA FAMILY TREE: Follow the investigation by two Boston professors of the historic figure who inspired the story of Count Drackula--a search surrounded by mystifying events, misfortune, and tragedy 500 years after Prince Vlad Dracul's death.
EXORCISM: DRIVING OUT THE DEVIL: Trace the history and evolution of exorcism over the centuries with recreations of harrowing struggles to free possessed individuals from the Devil's grasp and interviews with experts in the fields of theology, history, medicine, and the supernatural.
WITCH HUNT: Period documents and discussion by historians reveal the factors--superstition, hardship, stress, mass hysteria, personal revenge--that may have been responsible for the death of twenty people found guilty of witchcraft in Puritan New England.
EXORCISING THE DEVIL: Explore the true story of the 14-year-old Maryland boy whose ordeal was the basis for The Exorcist, and learn why exorcism, one of Christianity's oldest rites, has been on the rise in recent years.
VOODOO SECRETS: No other religion has been as maligned or misunderstood as voodoo, a vibrant system of beliefs with roots in ancient African religions, Roman Catholicism, and the of slave trade. Catalog #: 733961147049
