The Possession of Christian Shaw (24 Sep 2003)
In 1695, a little girl named Christian Shaw began to exhibit symptoms of what, at the time, was believed to be "demonic possession," causing seven of her neighbors to be tried as witches and burned at Gallow Green in Paisley, Scotland. As soon as we enter "The Possession of Christian Shaw," which takes this curious historical episode as its starting point, we are thrust into classic Donna Leishman territory -- spooky, dystopic, and strange.
