It's worth noting that this episode is a reworking of the play "Der Dybbuk" by S. Ansky.

Out of the hundred or so episodes that I have listened to over the years "The Demon Spirit" is the most scary. It was a disturbing listen; the actors who played possessed people were pretty menacing. DO NOT LET SMALL CHILDREN LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE! If you want to be creeped out, listen to it. 5 stars.

I wonder if this play inspired the Book- The Exorcist.

Based on a Jewish tale, a man seeks the hand of a woman to whom he was bound through an arranged marriage. The father of the bride to be changes his mind and arranges for his daughter to be married to a wealthy man. The jilted man has been spending the last year learning about spirits and spells and uses them to seek retribution. Some very intense writing and acting in this episode. It is worth a second or third listen!

This has to be one of the greatest episodes. An evil spirit, possession, exorcism, the occult...everything I seek in these shows. This one is actually creepy too, which is great. Definitely five stars.

I agree with Justin....simply one of the best CBSRMT episodes ever! Very satisfying ending and great acting
