Folie à deux, french for "madness of two," is a condition where two or more people share the same delusions.

They believed they were all possessed by different deities and they began acting in really strange and dangerous ways to free themselves from the possessions. This culminated in the family being put on trial for domestic abuse after one of the adult children died from st...
