Synopsis of The Exorcist

Angela Rance notices that her daughter Katherine is behaving strangely. Soon the whole family begins sensing presences and hearing voices in the house, and Angela decides to seek help from the young Father Tomás Ortega, who runs a small parish in the suburbs of Chicago. Meanwhile, somewhere else in the world, Father Marcus Brennan is fighting his own battle against evil. The series, created by Jeremy Slater, follows these two very different priests as they confront an evil force mobilized centuries ago. Geena Davis leads the cast as Angela, alongside Alfonso Herrera and Ben Daniels, and the series airs on Fox as a serialized thriller.
