Cycle Of The Demon Analysis
As you can see in the picture, Regan is floating above through mysterious powers. She is not in control, the demon is in full control, while the priests are performing to exorcism to cleanse Regan from the demon. In this scene, they are also throwing holy water at Regan to hurt the demon physically. Following this scene, Lankester is found dead from a heart attack when confronting the demon by Karras and begins to physically choke the demon. The demon then possesses Karras but before he is fully possessed, he jumps out the window to save Regan. The cycle of the demon is ended and Regan has no recollection of the events regarding her possession. The movie illustrates the event well, although it is very obvious that it is quite exaggerated.

    The historical nonfiction book The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson provides a comparison between the impressive White City of the Chicago World's Fair and the horror of H.H. Holmes's murder spree. It starts off in 1890 when Chicago finds out it's going to be hosting the World's Fair of 1893. Winning the bid meant so much to Chicago because it indicated that the city would finally be able to shake off the perception that it was a hog-slaughtering, greedy and isolated city. The Fair would create a more positive global reputation for Chicago. Larson argues that it was Chicago’s pride that led its people to dream big enough to win the bid for the World’s Fair. They were motivated to outdo the Paris World’s Fair of 1889, that produced the…

    Many people in past societies (and a few today) believed the idea of illness being the cause of Devil possession, and the result of demons inhabiting your body. Thankfully with modern medicine we don’t have this problem anymore, as these illnesses seem to actually just be the result of sickness and not actual demon intrusion. But in a day with no medicine to turn to, people were thought to be possessed and often labeled as witches or in need of help. The Path of the Devil by Gary F. Jensen is one of many that includes the mindset of demon relations with illness. Jensen looks through the Salem Witch Trails as examples of modern day hysteria and illness being faced with the labialization of being associated with the Devil. A connection I found with this conclusion was with a class material including Mary Magdalene and her history of illness. The similarities were that Mary Magdalene was once filled with demons and before being saved by Jesus, was thought be impure which, added with the connection between Lewis and Burton, leads us to think this is just another one of many ways the Devil has been represented less as a religious figure and more of a symbolic representation. In John Christopher Thomas’s The Devil, Disease and Deliverance: Origins of Illness in New Testament Thought, a biblical analysis that also includes…
