BBC radio 4 has a feature on the world-wide shortage of trained exorcists. Apparently, there is a skills-gap and an increasing problem with demonic posession.

Exorcists report rising demand for their services. According to the president of the American Association of Exorcists, “I get thousands of emails from people concerned that they may have been demonically possessed”. A church of England vicar, a former official Diocesan Exorcist, agrees that demonic activity in the UK is on the up: “The word that comes to me is almost despair”.
