but it did say it was based on a true story
The trick is the word based. You can get away with a lot of changes and still be based on a true story.
I do not believe in demon possession, but the demon in me is not so sure. 😆 jk
I believe demons and angels are good and bad bacteria, fungi or viruses. Thank about this, long time ago we could not see bacteria or viruses, so, someone would get sick and there would have to be a reason. We were the same back then, as we are now, we want to know why. They knew it was something they could not see, so they said a demon has possessed you. On the other hand, there were some plans that were good for you, if you got sick, and no one knew why, they said that an angel had saved you.
I haven't seen the movie, though many may feeelthey are possessed but really have some kind of disorder....though there are negative forces just like positive in the universe, and many act like a magnet...it's drawn to you....it's the law of attraction again.....It's part of the creative process....you create what you dwell on....It's pulled to you..
Religion doesn't understand this "Law of Attraction" and labels it the devil or demons.

Anneliese Michel was diagnosed by doctors as suffering from grand mal epilepsy, a condition of the brain that causes severe seizures.
This, compounded by other possible mental and psychological disorders, resulted in hallucinations of demonic faces and voices. Her religious parents, apparently baffled and frustrated by their 16-year-old daughter’ s increasingly psychotic and often violent behavior, chose to thwart the medical diagnosis and sought an exorcism.
For years, the Church refused to grant an exorcism. They accepted the medical diagnosis, finding no supernatural criteria to warrant an exorcism. Despite this lack of evidence, however, in 1975 the Michels finally convinced priests to perform exorcisms, only reinforcing Anneliese’ s delusion that demons were inside her.
Anneliese Michel was not possessed, she required heavy duty medical attention.
