The Catholic diocese of Milan, Italy started an exorcism hotline in November 2012, and doubled the number of exorcism-practicing priests from six to 12. The diocese hopes to keep up with an apparent increase in calls over the past 15 years.<\/p>\n

“From the number of calls we receive, the need has doubled,” Monsignor Angelo Mascheroni — the diocese’s chief exorcist since 1995 — told the news website Incrocinews<\/a>. “We get young and old, men and women, people with different levels of education, from school-leavers to graduates.”<\/p>\n

Mascheroni also said that one priest was reportedly seeing as many as 120 people a day.<\/p>\n

A special switchboard has been set up where people can call Monday through Friday between 2:30 p.m. and 5 p.m. for all their exorcism needs. Mascheroni gave out the phone number to Incrocinews.\u00a0Beginning with the country code, it is: 39-02-8556457 (If dialing from the U.S., you need to add 011 as the first three digits).<\/p>\n

But Americans shouldn’t expect much help from the Milanese crew. The exorcists don’t want to travel too far from their home base and\u00a0their website is in Italian, suggesting that foreign folks should take their demon problems elsewhere.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, Mascheroni says that the demonic forces aren’t necessarily getting stronger. Rather, he says, cases of mental illness are increasing. He also suggests that the rise in exorcist calls could be related to the number of parents having discipline problems with their children.<\/p>\n

Yeah. That’s especially true when the kids spin their heads around, spew green pea soup, and turn the room into a refrigerator.<\/p>\n
