If one saw the movie, The Exorcist, they witnessed a reenactment of the Catholic ritual for demonic possession, also known as an exorcism, in which a priest drives the demon out of the host with the assistance of holy, blessed items such as a cross and holy water. Other religions such as Pagans and Jews have similar rituals.
