Before the Exorcist: The Lutheran Connection to a 1949 St. Louis Mystery
A statue of Martin Luther stands on the campus of Concordia Seminary in St. Louis. Originally dedicated in 1903 and relocated to the seminary's present campus in 1926, the monument commemorates the German reformer whose teachings established Lutheranism. In 1949, seminary president Dr. Louis J. Sieck and the Rev. Alfred Doerffler reportedly attempted an exorcism involving a Maryland teenager whose experiences later inspired the novel and film The Exorcist. (Photo courtesy of Gary Todd, via Wikimedia Commons.)

Coheed and Cambria leans heavily into ‘Afterman’ albums in St. Louis
Coheed and Cambria returned to The Pageant on September 25th for a sold-out stop on their This Is Our War Tour, with The Home Team making good use of their opening slot. The Seattle-based band has spent the last few years mixing pop, rock, and heavier influences together, releasing their newest album It Lives, It Changes earlier this summer.
