  In 1971, William Peter Blatty's groundbreaking novel, The Exorcist, presented a terrifying account of demonic possession in contemporary Washington D.C. Over a decade later, his best-selling sequel of grisly killings seem to haunt the site of the original exorcism.Here for the first time in print are Blatty's electrifying screenplays: The Exorcist, directed by William Friedkin in 1973, and for which Blatty won an Academy Award; and Legion, subsequently filmed as The Exorcist III. Included are the full texts of The Exorcist's legendary 'lost scenes' and excised dialogue, plus the controversial climax Blatty intended for his extraordinary sequel.Both popular and profound, Blatty's Exorcist diptych is a unique exploration of evil and the mystery of faith.
