These are real problems. The themes are demonic torment and evil. Some very evil entities have laid a claim to ShadowPerson, and he is going to need some fairly heavy clout to break free.

Catholic or not he will have to go to a Catholic Diocese and get some Holy Salt to scatter around his house. Holy Water to keep around and wash in (more on this later). There needs to be crucifixes hanging in every room. ShadowPerson could go to a Catholic Religious Goods Store and get a Brown Scapular (along with the Scapular itself, the makers add a Crucifix and a Saint Benedict Medal to each strap).

All this might help, or ShadowPerson may require a full exorcism. Praying might help. Many people assume that Christ would be a big help in such situations, and He would be if He didn't think that Humanity largely deserves its problems.... one can hardly blame Him for having been somewhat imbittered by having been Crucified, and then there is the insulting doctrine that insists upon perpetuating the Suffering of Christ to keep up with the ever new sins of sinners who insist rather upon Forgiveness while excusing themselves from Righteousness as Theologically Impossible (it is Paulist Doctrine, but had originated with Satan). So Christ may have little Sympathy. But Mary Mother of God and Queen of the Angels still is the Greatest Advocate for Mercy and is most active in the Battle against Satan and his Demons. If ShadowPerson could persuade Her to take an interest, then with some work he could be delivered of these Evils which plague him.

We may ask why him? Demons often find some reason to lay claim to the souls of some people. An old curse on the family that goes back generations (what is particularly dangerous is an old disgruntled Patriarch damning his children from his deathbed -- such things the Devil lays claim on and would never let go until actively challenged). As respectable as his family may be now, back a few generations, there could have been 3 or more consecutive generations of illegitimacy, or thievery, which the Demons claim gives them a hold on such a family. Many atrocities were committed during the Protestant Wars of Rebellion, and so today we have the descendents of Nun-raping Iconoclasts, who would appear very respectable (and why not, they won their War) but the devils would certainly want to hold these families to their evil contracts. My point is that as innocent as ShadowPerson may be personally, the Lower Realms could be calling in Ancient Debts.

Anyway, about Holy Water -- it can be multiplied up... thusly -- the Rule of Holy Water is that any container that is more than half full of Holy Water can be filled to the top to make 100% Holy Water. So one can find a small bottle of Holy Water and pour not more than half of it out, and then refill it to make it a full bottle of Holy Water again, and repeat. Keep pouring it out and refilling it until you have a 2nd Larger Container just more than half full, and then that can be filled to the top. Multiiplying can be done with larger and larger containers. One can even go to the extent of having a bucket in the bathtub with more than half of it full of Holy Water, and then by filling and dumping no more than half, the bathtub can be filled with Holy Water for a complete immersion in Holy Water.
