The Exorcist Show Summary

Father Tomas Ortega is a compassionate, progressive face of the Catholic Church, whilst Father Marcus Brennan is a fierce Templar Knight raised by the Vatican to battle evil.

Both cross paths when one suburban family falls into the clutches of dark forces; college student Katherine who becomes increasingly reclusive. Her younger sister Casey, meanwhile, is convinced she can hear strange noises emanating from within the walls of their family home.

Their mother Angela believes the presence in their house is demonic, leading her to seek the help of the Catholic Church and leading to an epic face-off between the priests and an ancient evil.
