Growing Phenomenon Of Demonic Possession To Be Featured On Primetime TV
A new NBC drama will explore demonic possession and exorcism. The network recently handed out a script commitment to "The Possession of Maggie Gill," a series that follows the Gills, an American middle class family who experience frequent paranormal activity within their Eugene, Oregon home, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The show also features two detectives in the same town who are investigating a series of brutal murders. Those involved eventually realize a link between the murders and the paranormal activity which includes the Gills' 15-year-old daughter Maggie being possessed by demons. The show is being produced by Amblin Television, the same studio that brought "Under the Dome," "Extant," "Red Band Society," "Falling Skies," and "The Americans" to the small screen. It will be penned by John Glenn who worked on the film "Eagle Eye" along with Amblin's Darryl Frank, Justin Falvey and Harris Fishman.
