Except that it wasn't a Catholic church. Eastern Kentucky?...probably a snake handling church that performs exorcisms by rolling people up in carpets and beating the devil out of the "possessed".

This sounds like an April Fool’s story.

Either that or the boss is a paranoid schizophrenic character.

I didn't know Hampton Inn had a exorcism room!
You sure that wasn't an exercise room?

Isn’t”demons” a euphemism for a drinking problem and “get clean” means sober up? I bet the personal questionnaire was about drinking habits.

I actually stayed at this Hampton Inn in Hazard once back in the ‘90s. I was with someone who needed an exorcism.

If they did that places I’ve worked, we would have lost half our work force.
