The Smurls said they tried several times to obtain support and action from the church. The Roman Catholic Diocese of Scranton said it would consult with experts but official involvement would be unlikely. At one point in time, Janet thought she was getting help from a priest named Father O'Leary but discovered no such priest existed. The Warrens brought in Father (now Bishop) McKenna, a traditionalist priest who refused to abide by the changes in ritual mandated by the Second Vatican Council. He said mass in Latin and had performed more than 50 exorcisms for the Warrens. He conducted the ancient rite which did nothing but infuriate the demon.

Not as frightening as the infamous "Smurf" poltergeist, surely! ;o)
At first, I thought the headline said "The Smurf Poltergeist", which would have been something completely different (but no less terrifying).
I'm totally in LOVE with the new header! It's wonderful!!!
Is there a link to this story? Sounds fascinating!
Yup. Click on the pic.
I do that sometimes and leave out the "click here"
It's pretty creepy and I remember a tv movie based on this which was pretty scary.
