My Exorcisms Get Results, Says Voodoo Priest Of North London

Mr Poussaint sees nothing wrong with what he does. It is, he insists, work that has to be carried out.

“If the child is not exorcised then it will grow up to be horrible. I get results,” said the 75-year-old, who is originally from Benin in West Africa.

This is the first I’ve personally heard of “exorcism” outside of the Christian & Catholic realm (in this case Voodoo), but I guess that shouldn’t come as a shock since during the slave days Catholic beliefs were melded with ancient voodoo (more of a disguise…Wikipedia has more background info if you’re curious).
