Patrick (Ed), Michael (Director), and Vera (Lorraine) on the set of the movie that was made in 2020.
Lorraine always emphasized to her that “there was no prescription on how to deal with the spiritual attacks.”
“No matter what trauma or darkness or what level of evil she experienced. She was always so full of joy, gratitude, and a sense of wonder,” the actress highlighted.

O’Connor argued that “at the beginning of the movie, Arne is desperately trying to get Debbie’s brother David’s demon into him. He is shaking a child and pleading with a demon to possess him. “

The members are played by Julian Hilliard (“Spuk in Hill House”), Charlene Amoia (“Birds of Prey: The Emancipation of Harley Quinn”), Sarah Catherine Hook (“Law & Order: New York”) and Paul Wilson (” Big Stone Gap “).
