Companion to the Holy Hand Grenade, stronger than Turn Undead, and opposite of the Summoning Ritual; the Banishing Ritual sends evil somewhere else where it will at least take a while to get back. This is usually the preferred choice when the Balance Between Good and Evil means killing evil makes things worse, or Fighting a Shadow doesn't send it away long enough, or when the thing is simply hard to kill. The mechanics of the Banishing Ritual may simply be the Curse Escape Clause or counter curse to the Summoning Ritual; or a reminder to the universe that the Eldritch Abomination or The Legions of Hell don't belong on this plane. Can be the start of or continuation of Sealed Evil in a Can. Technically, sending something to Another Dimension is "banishing", sealing something up while still in this one is "binding." Sealing Ritual: A similar ritual that is used for sealing something, instead of banishing it to another place. The net effect is the same, although in the case of sealing, the something is still "around". Will lead to the whole Sealed Index in a Can. See also Hollywood Exorcism, where the Banishing Ritual is specifically used against Demonic Possession. Also, Supernatural Repellent, a more mundane and typically more temporary solution. |

In the early Enid Blyton adventure book, Book of Brownies, the brownies managed to defeat the Golden Dwarf by reciting a long, long incantation, Kerolamisticootalimarcawnokeeto. It's so long they have to separate it into three parts, each of them memorizing one-third, and then saying it in continuous succession. It works. | |

In the Lyrical Nanoha series, this is called "Sealing": a procedure that renders pretty much any dangerous Magitek construct inert and harmless. Sealing sentient constructs, though, pretty much equates to murder, as the heroes learn in the season two finale, where they have to seal Reinforce Eins in order to stop the Book of Darkness for good. | |

Supernatural: Demons can be removed from their host and sent back to hell with a Latin incantation (the Winchesters used this to deal with Demons before they acquired a demon-killing weapon), but there's also one for Angels (who also possess human hosts to manifest on Earth) in Enochian to send them back to Heaven. The only character who's ever seen attempting the latter is Alastair, since Angels are far too powerful to be even be restrained by anything less. | |

Discworld: The classic banishing ritual at the end of the Rite of Ash'Kente, which summons Death, begins "Begone, foul fiend". DEATH has asked for this to be replaced with something less personally offensive. When the Lancre witches summon a demon to whom they ask the traditional three questions, the malevolent entity hangs around at the end and diffidently points out he hasn't been properly banished yet, so would they mind awfully? The youngest, Magrat Garlick, is given the dogsbody task by the older witches. Nanny Ogg, a very down-to-earth witch, personally considers the best banishing ritual of all the words "BUGGER OFF!" spoken with force and authority. Rincewind the Wizard has learnt that hand gestures count in magical spellcasting. The unspoken banishing ritual is a dread sign made with the right hand, involving the raised middle finger jerked upwards. This binds all entities and they have no choice other than to withdraw to their own chthonic plane of existence by the shortest possible route. A wizard called Albert tried to permanently banish Death from his presence, making himself immortal, by performing the Rite of Ash'Kente in reverse. Instead it teleported him to Death's house, where he got a job as his manservant. |

Thousands of years prior to the events of Skyrim, the ancient Nords were in a life or death battle against Alduin the World-Eater and his dragon hordes. Armed with the dragons' own Language of Magic, the Thu'um, as taught to them by Alduin's Heel-Face Turned lieutenant Paarthurnax, a trio of Nord heroes set out to defeat Alduin. However, they were still unable to defeat him and, in their desperation, used the power of an Elder Scroll to banish him out of the stream of time. He emerges several thousand years later just prior to the events of the game. | |

The Piano Lesson: To banish Sutter's ghost, Avery attempts this, reading from the Bible and saying "Get thee behind me, Satan" and the like. But it fails, as the ghost battles Boy Willie upstairs. It takes Bernice sitting down at the piano and playing, something she hasn't done since her mother's death, to banish the ghost. It also banishes her brother Boy Willie, who makes his peace with Bernice keeping the piano and leaves. | |

Tom Bombadil's song to banish the barrow-wight in The Lord of the Rings results in the inner part of the barrow-chamber falling in, followed by a cry and a long trailing shriek. Afterwards, the treasures of the barrow are laid out on the grass with Tom bidding them lie there "free to all finders" and thus to be scattered as a ritual to break the spell of the barrow-mound so that no wight would ever return. | |

The Player Character must navigate the tower full of Dagon's Daedric Hordes, gathering the items (read: powerful weapons) and information (namely Dagon's Neonymic and Protonymic names) in order to banish him back to Oblivion. |

Magic: The Gathering has more than one mechanic that work like this. Summoned creature cards can be, for example, returned to their owner's hand or forced to be shuffled back into the deck. The most permanent one of these is the "exile" mechanic, that removes a card completely from the game. None of these mechanics are, however, limited to any certain type of creatures. | |

Naruto: A variant is the ritual the Akatsuki organization performed on any Jinchuriki to extract the Biju sealed in them and then seal it in the Demonic Statue of the Other Path. The ritual takes three full days to perform with full member present. Another technique is the Dead Demon Consuming Seal, where the user summons and channels the shinigami to rip off the opponent's soul and seal it inside the shinigami's body. It's a Dangerous Forbidden Technique, as the user will also have their soul ripped off and sealed once they're done. |

Warhammer 40,000: Some exorcisms in 40K work like this, though the majority just involve killing the daemon's corporeal form (much easier said than done for the more powerful ones). The Exorcists chapter of Space Marines (based on the planet Banish) go through a ritual where a minor Warp entity is deliberately summoned into an Marine's body under the maximum security the Chapter can provide and exorcized after twelve hours. Those who survive the procedure with mind and body intact are now effectively invisible to all but the most powerful of daemons, making them excellent killing machines against the forces of the Warp (their first test run saw a kill ratio of 97 to 1). |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer had one with a demon in the internet...it was trapped in a book until Willow scanned it. Jenny Calendar and Giles had to combine their skills to do a virtual binding ritual. It never returned to the book but got smashed in the robot body it had humans build. | |

It's stated early on in Alanna that all summoned creatures are vulnerable to a simple banishment spell. Ultimately subverted when the Big Bad attempts to banish an empowered Franklin, whom a god had just blessed with immunity to banishment. | |

Charmed referred to this process as "vanquishing". The Halliwell sisters almost always had a spell to send demons away. In one episode, this was reversed, and in another, a demon threatens to manifest anyways and is told that there's "dead" and then there's Dead. | |

Ghost Stories runs wild with it, considering the Monster of the Week tends to be a rogue spirit recently awakened, which the heroes have to seal away. The antagonist for the first episode is a special case, since the ritual used required a specific sakura tree to exist. However, by the time Satsuki and friends attempt the ritual, the sakura tree had been cut down. As a result, Amanojaku was sealed away into the first thing it could, which just happened to be a cat. Ultimately, this meant he was around for the majority of the series and could even interact with the protagonists. However, being sealed in a cat meant he was no more dangerous than, well, a cat. Similarly, the Kutabe was sealed on a Jizo statue that had been destroyed. In order for it to not pull a Kaya and get it shoved into a random thing or animal, Satsuki actually had to superglue the statue's head back together. |

Songstress Angel was exploited in Rock and Rule to summon a towering monster from another dimension. Free of the villain's Mind Control, Angel stands her ground: "If I can sing it up, I can sing it back." This doesn't seem to work, as Mok snarks, "The girl can't sing it back; no one can." It turns out that once Omar joins Angel in a duet, the monster recoils as though sprayed with Hollywood Acid, and retreats into its hole, not to be seen again. | |

The Cabin in the Woods: The college students encounter numerous Summoning Artifacts for the various monsters that could have descended on the cabin, but only one actual Sealing Ritual is shown in the film when the monitors observe a group of Japanese schoolgirls using a chant to contain the spirit of a Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl inside a frog. The observers are livid when they see this, since a human sacrifice is necessary to stop the world from ending. | |

In Spirit Hunters Sura prefers banishing extraplanar monsters back to their home plane to destroying them, in a ritual that usually involves boxing them in with Paper Talismans, making a yin-yang symbol in the air with her hands or the butt of her spear, then using her spear's Absurdly Sharp Blade to tear open a rift in planes and shove the monster through. | |
