Father Walter Halloran is a Jesuit Roman Catholic priest who, at the age of twenty-six, assisted in the exorcism of a thirteen year old Lutheran boy in St. Louis, Missouri who had became possessed after using a Ouija board. This was the case that William Peter Blatty was inspired by when he wrote his novel The Exorcist.
