The new season of FOX's THE EXORCIST will be hitting Friday, September 29th at 9 PM. The last word we brought you on the upcoming season was that the creators planned to homage THE EXORCIST III and the famous "hallway scare."

Today we have news that the first episode of the new season will be called "Janus" and below you can find a plot synopsis for the episode. But beware, of course, the synopsis could be taken as SPOILERS.

THE EXORCIST S2E1 synopsis via Spoiler TV:

Six months after leaving Chicago, Father Tomas continues his training to become an exorcist under the watchful eye of his partner Marcus Keane. Their travels lead them to a troubled young woman in rural Montana, where their investigation puts them in the crosshairs of her extended family. But as Tomas' skills continue to grow, Marcus begins to worry that his apprentice is taking unnecessary risks. 

The action then switches to a secluded private island off the coast of Seattle, where Andy Kim (John Cho, "Star Trek," "Harold & Kumar") runs a group home for at-risk foster children, whose lives are disrupted when the state sends a social worker (Li Jun Li, "Quantico," "Blindspot") to determine whether the foster home should be closed. Little do they know the true danger is yet to come: a malevolent presence that has set its sights upon one of the children in Andy's care.
