Three years after a traumatic experience at the end of WWII, Father Lankester Merrin is working as an archeologist in British East Africa. His team uncovers an ancient Byzantine church, preserved in pristine condition, and buried beneath the church is an ancient crypt that contains the remnants of Satanic ritual and brutal sacrifice. The locals are convinced that uncovering the church has unleashed a demon, and young Father Francis believes that a boy has been possessed by it. Father Merrin realizes that he must try to recover his lost faith if they are to have any hope of overcoming the encroaching evil.
