When science fails to explain the child's increasingly violent and supernatural behaviour, a desperate plea brings two priests into direct confrontation with an ancient and malevolent force. William Peter Blatty constructs a chilling battle of faith and reason, weaving theological doubt and psychological dread into every page. Inspired by a real-life 1949 case of alleged demonic possession, the novel presents a deeply unsettling portrait of evil that shook the world upon its 1971 publication. Widely regarded as one of the most frightening novels ever written, it remains an enduring masterwork that redefined the horror genre for generations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956304195803,"sku":"2026200008175-SECONDHAND","price":45.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/2e6b050e-5a6f-46e7-a6d6-9d64afbb60bf.png?v=1783499454","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200008175-secondhand-the-exorcist","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
