Worth Watching: ..., an 'Evil' Child?

Evil (10/9c, CBS): In the strongest episode yet of this intriguing mystery of the soul, Kristen (Katja Herbers) and David (Mike Colter) take different paths as they dig into the troubled psyche of a sociopathic 9-year-old (Luke Judy). His worried parents fear young Eric is possessed by a demon who seeks to harm them and their new baby. Is an exorcism required? Or could there be environmental causes? On the home front, Kristen is worried for her four rambunctious daughters after they get caught up in a macabre game projected in the VR devices their grandmother (Christine Lahti) foolishly brought home.

Worth Watching: ..., an 'Evil' Halloween to Remember, ...

Evil (10/9c, CBS): "Do you want to do something really scary?" Let me rephrase that: Do you want to see something really scary? The quote, spoken by a mysterious little girl in a Halloween mask, is an invitation to watch one of the creepiest hours of TV so far this fall season‑and unquestionably the scariest episode to date of this macabre exploration of faith-vs-science, which was just renewed for a second season. (The first season of 13 episodes will wrap Jan. 30.) The centerpiece is a grueling Halloween-night exorcism, fueling a debate between wannabe priest David (Mike Colter) and psychology-oriented Kristen (Katja Herbers) about whether the victim is actually possessed or if the exorcism may be exacerbating an already disturbed mental state. (Either way, the scenes are terrifying.) On a lighter and more satirical note, professional debunker Ben (Aasif Mandvi) tags along with a Ghost Hunters-like TV team to poke holes in their latest investigation — of a haunted strip club. But the most lingering chills involve Kristen's four daughters, who spend their Halloween playing spooky games that become all too surreal. Why, you may wonder, does Kristen keep leaving her kids with their irresponsible grandma, Sheryl (a very amusing Christine Lahti)? But even Sheryl is about to have her own encounter with evil, the sort of moment that leaves you impatient for the next episode.
