Asia¡¯s only dedicated exorcism center ¡ª designed to train not only Philippine priests but clergy from across the region ¡ª sits just off a busy thoroughfare in Metro Manila.

Inside, neatly made-up rooms for visiting priests line warmly lit halls that lead to a chapel where the 400-year-old ritual takes place.

Holy relics employed in the proceedings line one wall, another features a one-way mirror that allows family members and novice exorcists to observe.
