Summary
George and Kathy Lutz are newlyweds who move into a large house that is located on Long Island. The couple move in with their three children into what they believe is their dream home. Despite full disclosure by the real estate agent of the home's history, George and Kathy buy the house. The couple turn to their family priest Father Delaney who comes to bless the house. The Father believes the house is haunted and performs an exorcism on the house. But the evil spirit in the house causes him to become blind and makes him very ill. George and Kathy, with the help of another priest, Father Bolen, and a police detective, face the fears of the house. They do not know that the spirit is planning to possess George and then the children. Based on a true story
