Blatty's sequel

William Peter Blatty's sequel to "The Exorcist," titled "Legion," continues the story of the demonic possession and its aftermath. Set several years later, it follows Detective Kinderman as he investigates a series of gruesome murders that seem linked to the original exorcism. The narrative explores themes of faith, good vs. evil, and the nature of the supernatural, while introducing new characters and deepening the psychological horror. Unlike its predecessor, "Legion" emphasizes philosophical inquiries and moral dilemmas, ultimately leading to a compelling confrontation with the forces of darkness and a deeper understanding of redemption.
