As all witches and warlocks know, summoning creatures from another plane of existence requires a bit of ceremony. Sacrifices and exotic materials may be required along with elaborate ceremonies, but a simple geometric figure and a few candles will often be enough. A good place to do this is At the Crossroads. Of course, there may be a whole other price to pay if the ritual succeeds. Keeping trickster demons and other unworldly apparitions can take a great deal of concentration or chanting; if the protective pentagram should be disturbed... (Never... EVER... break the circle.)
If we're talking about demons, the road to summoning is not easy. You need to learn the magic circles, the true names of various demons, every conceivable precaution against the demon once summoned (as it's a rare demon who likes doing a summoner's dirty work). All told, it takes years of serious study... and heaven help you if you decide you're ready for a real demon midway through your training. Remember, Evil Is Not a Toy!
With an experienced Evil Sorcerer or Sorcerous Overlord; the relationship is a bit different. Said sorcerer is probably already going to Hell, so their soul isn't as valuable; or else they have the demon's playbook on Deal with the Devil. Thus, it becomes a contest of who can benefit more from each other. The Sorcerer gets tidbits of advice and power while negotiating; while the demon manipulates the sorcerer into doing the most evil possible (usually because Humans Are Special, it's different if a human does it) or else getting free. (Humans can usually summon Demons because of Free Will, which a Demon often feels is easier gotten past than from where they came.) ...and even if the sorcerer is perfect in their maintenance, the demon may manipulate any passing heroes into freeing them.
A good rule of thumb when dealing with things from beyond is never to call up what you cannot put down, or summon anything larger than your head. Most people seem to make the grade with just a random mortal from another plane at any rate. Mind you, even if everything goes right, you might end up summoning someone out of the shower!
The classical name for a scene in which some chthonic being is summoned up is a nekyia (νέκυια), which is to be distinguished from a catabasis {κατάβασις} or descent into the underworld.
Contrast Banishing Ritual, though sometimes banishing that which was summoned can be as simple as reversing the original ritual. And do make sure you have all the right ingredients and the stars are properly aligned before you start the chanting, or else you may end up performing an Imperfect Ritual.

Another parody of the Summoning Ritual is the Rite of AshkEnte, used to summon Death. Much is made about how the more traditional wizards want pentagrams and dribbly candles and mystical mumblings, when it could actually be done with three bits of wood and four cc. of mouse blood, or two bits of wood and a fresh egg. This is definitely done for the summoner's benefit, as Death is really quite a practical person and wouldn't be bothered by a lack of ceremony (in fact, he generally finds the ceremony annoying), but there's no point being a wizard if you do it without the dribbly candles. What bothers him is that they're always summoning him when he's right in the middle of something. During Eric, the wizards try the ritual, only for Death to show up before they've even started. He only begrudgingly agrees to step into the circle just to move things along.

In the Heralds of Valdemar novel Oathbound, a young and incompetent mage accidentally speaks the name of a major demon rather than the imp he was trying to summon. The demon seduces him into dropping what protections he does have, and then kills him slowly and painfully.

The spiritual barrier for a demon summoning collapsed in the third strip of Hellbound when the old guy's new apprentice distracted him. That ensured the death of the old guy (who never even got a name) and set off the events of the rest of the comic.

Rico the summoner in Duel Savior Destiny pulls both Taiga and Mia from their world to hers at the start of the story. Or at least, that's what people assume, but Taiga wasn't supposed to get dragged along as well and it doesn't seem as though she really intended to grab Mia either. Still, neither of them is evil or anything, so despite the mistake everything goes well enough.

At least two demon summoners in The Belgariad, sequels and prequels were stupid enough to draw pentagrams on water.
This is partly a means of showing off: "Yeah, I can draw letters of glowing energy on water!" It even works if the water in question is standing still. Drawing your pentagram on a river, on the other hand... that's getting into Idiot Ball territory.
One of the ones who drew it on still water still didn't think it through — she drew it on the sea, and got punished soundly for forgetting about waves.
Even without this fault, demon summoning is certain to go awry if the magician loses his concentration for even a moment. Which the captive demon will do its absolute best to make happen. Magicians have short lifespans.

Shin Megami Tensei is a long-running series — which has guested a huge variety of consoles, and also includes the Persona sub-series — is based entirely around summoning demons — or, rather daemon, entities that can be good, evil, or completely beyond human morality. A demon summoner can thus call upon Goetian demons alongside holy angels and even legendary heroes whose fame (or infamy) has given them a cult and a following. And like in its Digital Devil Story origins, most of the summoning is done by combining it with the latest technology and Demon Summoning Programs. In fact, the ceremony of summoning is so central to the games, the franchise has consistently used Seals of Solomon and pentagrams as brand logos.

In Fullmetal Alchemist, Human Transmutation (i.e. resurrecting the dead) resembles a summoning ritual. The results are rarely pretty. It also never works. Turns out that the dead can't be brought back to life. Ever. No amount of sacrifice can overcome that basic law.
The anime, Fullmetal Alchemist (2003) has a different variation of this, in which a homunculus is created in place of the actual person they're trying to resurrect. This is eventually revealed to be exploited by Dante who created Wrath as a perfect homunculus that is loyal only to her.

The Legend of Drizzt has featured this a few times. One was an apprentice who screwed up the pentagram and let out a balor. Cadderly also summons up demons and kills them, which inconveniences them... somehow. Pasting demons on the material plane sends them home, and prevents them from coming back on their own for 100 years — unless summoned by the person who "killed" them in the first place.

Eternal Darkness eventually gives the player the magick to summon eldritch monsters, while the overarching plot concerns a massive summoning ritual to bring an Eldritch Abomination to Earth When the Planets Align. Said ritual is too far along to stop entirely, so the heroes instead summon a rival Ancient to defeat the first, then banish the victor.

Dawn of War:
In Winter Assault, one of the Chaos Levels has you mind control enough Guardsmen as sacrifices to summon a Bloodthirster to take out the Avatar of Khaine summoned by the Eldar.
In the Dark Crusade Eldar stronghold, Gameplay and Story Segregation sets in to allow the Eldar to summon the Avatar of Khaine by sacrificing an Exarch. Not that while this is how it happens in the fluff, in-game he's built like any other unit.
From Dark Crusade onwards, Chaos Lords can be turned into Daemon Princes and Bloodthirsters summoned from an Aspiring Champion or Sorcerer after the appropriate (and expensive) research. If they die, they need to be researched again.
The Dark Apostle Eliphas is brought to the planet via one of these.

An odd, possibly unintentional example in Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn: A drow elf wizard near the very end of the game uses that game's version of the Gate spell to summon a Pit Fiend to fight for him. The fiends summoned by the spell will attack anyone who does not have the spell effect "protection from evil" cast on them. The wizard of course casts this on himself before doing the summoning, and a good way to beat him is to dispel it to set the devil on him. The odd thing is that sometimes, only sometimes, the Pit Fiend itself will use one of its spell-like abilities to dispel the effect. You'd think that if they were allowed to do that, they'd always do it and never get summoned.
This reflects a larger AI flaw with wizards in the game. While they always cast Protection from Evil, thus making whatever demon they summon unable to attack them, it still registers as an enemy. Many an fight sees a wizard summon a demon and instead of trusting it to attack their enemies and get on with blasting them itself, the wizard instead spends all their energy fighting the demon they just summoned.

Night World: The Inner Circle (the ruling council of witches) use a special ritual to summon the spirits of witch ancestors on Samhain, with Thea and Blaise stating that as kids they snuck out to secretly watch the summoning. In Spellbinder (1996), Thea attempts the summoning ritual herself to call forth the spirit of Phoebe Garner, a benevolent witch she hopes will shield Eric from Blaise, but she accidentally ends up with Suzanne Blanchet instead, who is not remotely inclined to protect humans.

Fate/Harem Antics: Since Shirou's mother is in control of the Holy Grail from beyond the grave, she deliberately screws up most of the summonings. Rin got Francis Drake instead of the canon Archer, Sakura still got Medusa but the summoning brought the ceiling down on Zouken and allowed Sakura to escape, Zouken got Hassan of Serenity and immediately got himself killed when he made the mistake of slapping her because he didn't know she's a Poisonous Person, so on and so on. Iri deliberately makes all the Servants and Masters female under the assumption that they'll all fall in love with Shirou and she can finally get grandkids.

Summoning is a somewhat common occurrence on Supernatural, as it's an accepted magical way to find or get a hold of certain supernatural beings. While summoning rituals themselves are not botched by the characters, the act of summoning can still be extremely dangerous depending on just who or what is being summoned. Even extensive prep work may not make the summoning completely safe — angels and demons can be summoned into circles of holy oil or devil's traps respectively to limit their movements and abilities, but a sufficiently clever or powerful opponent can find a way to break free. A name is also required for the summoning to work. Probably the most notable summoning in the show is Castiel's first appearance and Establishing Character Moment, when Dean and Bobby, only having a name and not knowing what to expect, spend hours painting various wards and sigils on the walls of a barn and have multiple weapons available in preparation.

Not really summoning per se, but Third Impact in End of Evangelion might count. If one can watch it without immediately being reduced into a whimpering wreck, that is (since it's the perfect Mind Screw in a few-minute package). First, the MP Evas fly up into orbit, align themselves into a Kabbalistic Tree of Life and use the resulting anti-AT field to lift the entire geofront into space. In the meantime, Gendo sticks his right hand-fused-with-Adam into Rei. Next, Rei absorbs the arm and flies up to Lilith who absorbs her into its chest. Finally, Lilith falls down from its cross, morphs into Rei and starts growing. The MP Evas change formation to resonate their AT-fields with that of Lilith. The result is REALLY FUCKING HUGE. If that's not a big enough Mind Screw yet, the ugly bastards stab Unit 01's S2 organ with the Lance of Longinus, transforming it into the real Tree of Life then orgasmically stab themselves one-by-one, unleashing Lilith's power and reducing humanity into a Hive Mind before the Tree and Lilith merge.

Discworld:
In Making Money, the Professor of Post-Mortem Communications performs rites with all the dribbly candles, pentagrams and such partly because of tradition and partly because people called from beyond the grave expect ceremony and want to see that you've put the effort in.
Another parody of the Summoning Ritual is the Rite of AshkEnte, used to summon Death. Much is made about how the more traditional wizards want pentagrams and dribbly candles and mystical mumblings, when it could actually be done with three bits of wood and four cc. of mouse blood, or two bits of wood and a fresh egg. This is definitely done for the summoner's benefit, as Death is really quite a practical person and wouldn't be bothered by a lack of ceremony (in fact, he generally finds the ceremony annoying), but there's no point being a wizard if you do it without the dribbly candles. What bothers him is that they're always summoning him when he's right in the middle of something. During Eric, the wizards try the ritual, only for Death to show up before they've even started. He only begrudgingly agrees to step into the circle just to move things along.
In the Adventure Game Discworld II: Missing Presumed...!?, the Death summoning ritual requires three small sticks (of equal length), 4 cc of mouse blood, dribbly candles, a vile stench, glitter, and a performance of Day-O (The Banana Boat Song). Death appears dressed in a cork hat, apparently having been on vacation.
A parody of this was the ritual that the witches used to summon that poor demon in Wyrd Sisters. No pentagrams or candles, to Magrat's dismay, but Granny and Nanny generally thumb their noses at that stuff. They just used the sharp and terrible copper stick, the rather old washing soda and some extremely hard soap flakes, the balding scrubbing brush of Art, and the washboard of Protection to summon a demon in a laundry boiler. Irked Granny a bit that they went through all that trouble instead of just flat out calling the demon since she felt they were pandering to it and making it feel important. And then the demon was disappointed when they didn't bother to properly banish it once they were done asking their questions, instead merely telling it to go away. Magrat was glad to oblige with the proper sequence of dramatic phrases. Note that the witches threatened said demon with being boiled when it refused to answer in a simple manner.

In Making Money, the Professor of Post-Mortem Communications performs rites with all the dribbly candles, pentagrams and such partly because of tradition and partly because people called from beyond the grave expect ceremony and want to see that you've put the effort in.

In GrimGrimoire, demon summoning is just a class taught to students in the Wizarding School. You basically call low-level demons up with a rune inscribed with a pentagram.
Special mention goes to Lilet's final plan, which is Summoning the Big Bad Demon Lord before he escapes his prison, letting him kill the other villain trying to summon him, and then tricking him into a Fate Worse than Death.

Once they have all three, Raziel will come to them and will grant any single wish the summoner wants.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim quest "The Man Who Cried Wolf" leads the Dragonborn to investigate a spooky cave, in which a cabal of necromancers is in the process of summoning the spirit of the "Wolf Queen" Potema, a fearsome mage in her own right who is none too pleased that the necromancers intend to bind her into their service. The Dragonborn slaughtering the necromancers disrupts the ritual and lets Potema's spirit escape... and unfortunately, she makes her way to Solitude's catacombs, leading to a follow-up quest to stop her before she raises an army of undead.

Black Butler subverts this, which is pretty unusual since a Faustian Bargin is the focus of the show. while the exact circumstances of Ciel summoning the demon he names Sebastian aren't really revealed, he obviously did not perform a ritual. The most likely explanation seems that the cult who kidnapper Ciel summoned Sebastian using him as a sacrifice, but Sebastian found Ciel a more attractive prospect and made a deal with him, not them.

Exalted has a whole suite of summoning spells, for elementals, ghosts and demons of varying ranks, all of which require a ritual of some kind. Necromancers have an easier time summoning ghosts than sorcerers, who in turn are better with demons and elementals (in fact, Necromacy can't call elementals at all), and thaumaturges can summon a lot of different spirits, but can't control them. Oh, and Summon Elemental takes the form of a letter to the elemental in question, who can send a subordinate in their stead if said underling is up to the task. And then there's Pattern Weaving, whose spells are tailored to the spirits of Autochthonia, and is the only branch that can reliably summon minor gods.

Disgaea 2 starts with one of these, with the hero and his family attempting to summon Overlord Zenon, only to get his daughter Rozalin. While it looks like a failure at first near the end of the game it turns out Rozalin is the real Overlord. It was the fake Zenon they wanted to summon, but since they didn't know he was a fake, let alone his real identity, there was no way they could've succeeded.
Later in the game, upon learning that the Zenon they encountered in the Coliseum was a fake, thanks to Etna easily stomping him, they decide to summon "The Strongest Demon in the World" to narrow down their target, and an ingredient for the summoning ritual was an "Overlord's Nail", though an equally strong Demon Lord's Nail would work. They track down Etna and manage to convince her to give them one of her fingernails for the ritual... only she gave them a press-on fake nail as a prank. Unsurprisingly, Etna herself gets summoned, but thanks to the fake nail she is reset to Level 1.

In Darkest Dungeon, all of the Swine enemies in the Warrens are the result of the Ancestor's failed experiments at summoning demons and otherworldly beings into physical vessels. The creatures subsequently began to breed and populate the Warrens after he discarded them, with the greatest failure becoming a colossal eyeless and legless Swine King. The Formless Flesh is an even more extreme case of failure, becoming an ever-changing, living mass of incoherent pig offal which the Ancestor dumped into the sewers like toxic waste.

The Saga of the Faroe Islanders: When Thrand tries to prove that Thorgrim of Suduroy has murdered Sigmund Brestisson—who was last seen swimming toward Suduroy from Skufoy, accompanied by his supporters Einar and Thorir—Thrand has fires kindled in Thorgrim's hearth room, sets up hurdles in a square shape, and "scratches nine squares out from the hurdles every way". He sits down on a stool between the fires and the hurdles and orders that nobody is to talk to him. After sitting in silence for a while, Einar (i.e. his ghost) walks in soaking wet and warms his hands at the fire, then leaves. The ghost of Thorir appears and behaves exactly the same way; lastly the ghost of Sigmund appears, drenched in blood and carrying his own head in his hand. Thrand deduces that Einar and Thorir drowned in the sea, but that Sigmund reached Suduroy and was killed by beheading there.

In Magic, Inc., the witch named "Granny" Jennings summons up several Elemental Embodiments, including a salamander, an undine (water elemental), and a gnome, a process that comes complete with candles, protective circles, cabalistic signs drawn in the dirt, and muttered incantations in unknown languages that the narrator can't quite hear. The salamander (a ball of flame, not anything like a newt) is quite friendly, albeit displaying a totally inhuman sense of morality, but Mrs. Jennings has to basically torture the sylph to get it to cooperate (burning it with the candle flame), and as for the gnome, she literally puts him across her knee and SPANKS him.

Digital Devil Story, the origin of the famous Shin Megami Tensei franchise, came to be when the protagonist and genius programmer Akemi Nakajima realized that a summoning ritual — with all its standardized rules, incantations, and rigid procedures — could be automated and written as executable code on a computer. He then proceeds to do exactly that, creating the very first Demon Summoning Program. After successfully summoning the demon Cerberus as a guardian beast, he tries to go for broke and summon a Demon King, Loki himself, who only plays by Nakajima's rules for as long as it's convenient to him.

Curls from AJCO manages to mess up summoning not only once but twice.
The first time she attempts to summon a friendly spirit, and instead ends up with the former owner of the goggles she wears on her head — a vengeful bandit that she had killed several years prior. Under normal circumstances he would have been harmless, but Egg happened to be passing by and got possessed. He manages to fling Curls across the room and shoot Nights in the shoulder before being exorcised by Kaja, leaving Egg unconscious for most of the following day.
The second time she attempts to summon a weak demon and instead ends up with Finn — who is undoubtedly a weak demon as demons go, but is now bound to her soul and can't leave or be killed without also killing Curls. He also eats people.

In Dungeons & Dragons:
Divine spellcasters can cast the risk-free but expensive Planar Ally spells to summon a servant of their god or a philosophically aligned Outsider. Arcane spellcasters must resort to the more versatile but vastly more dangerous Planar Binding spells, which, among other things, involve bargaining with the summoned creature and require several other spells to stop it from escaping.
Downplayed by the "Summon Monster'' line of spells, which take all of six seconds (and no fancy components) to cast and produce an utterly obedient projection of the desired creature for a very limited time.
Fourth Edition took away general summoning spells for all caster classes, but has a few classes with the mojo, such as the invoker (a divine class that summons agents of their god), shaman (a spirit summoner), and a new build for the wizard that allows the summoning of animate spells.
There's also some non-core summoning rituals, such as Adjure, Summon Elemental, Summon Demon, etc, which can summon a powerful creature to fight for you. Adjure is particularly risky; if you fail the skill challenge, you have to serve the creature instead!
Fifth Edition has several spells where the summoned creature is either not under control at all or can break free of the summoner's control if certain conditions are met. Some of these spells have built-in properties to protect the summoner from a summoned creature gone rogue, but most do not, and none of them can re-establish control once it is lost.

In the text-adventure The Lurking Horror, the evil professor of Alchemy traps you inside the summoning circle (which apparently acts as a force field for humans as well, as summoning a demon requires a sacrifice to be on hand when it arrives. To escape, you must use a knife in your pocket to scratch away enough of the circle to break it and then you are free to flee the room at the last second before the summoner notices. The demon arrives and devours the summoner instead before leaving.

In Cultist Simulator summoning rituals are the most commonly-used rituals. All summonings require some amount of Knock, the occult power of space and opening. Summonings can go wrong if the spirit resists, and there is a choice to either dismiss the spirit (which always works but means you still lose any resources consumed by the ritual) or attempt to regain control (which is not guaranteed, and can sometimes lead to bad consequences if the spirit doesn't submit).

Cradle Series: This is basically what starts the plot. The Li clan manages to summon their immortal Grand Patriarch from another world (by, basically, managing to crack open the door enough for him to finish the job), and he starts slaughtering all their enemies. Suriel, Sixth Judge of the Abidan Court, throws him in prison and then reverses time so that his crime never occurred... but not before Lindon manages to impress her by standing against Li Markuth despite knowing he would die. She then shows him a vision of the future that inspires him to leave his home and become one of the most powerful people in the world.

In Tales of Kolmar, demons live in their own world within the normal world. Demon summoners call them up out of it with complicated rituals, often sacrificing something to bring a demon into the circle, sacrificing more to bind it and get it to do things. Demons will quite happily escape the summoning circle and kill the summoner, then go on a rampage, if the summoner is careless. The demons can encourage this by making the summoners feel overconfident and more likely to skip steps. In The Lesser Kindred Berys decides to summon something he doesn't know how to dismiss, reasoning that he can bind it indefinitely while alive and doesn't care what happens to the world after he's dead.

In Gems of War, the thing which Ferit vaguely knows must be stopped turns out to be an attempt to raise Abhorath, an evil god-like thing. More generally, the warlocks of the region seem to have a thing for summoning ancient horrors; finding ruins where this can be done is apparently their main reason for being there.

In the Thousand Sons novel Ahriman: Exile, Ahriman and Astraeos summon a daemon through an elaborate ritual (involving ninety-nine mirrors set to float in precise patterns, complex spirals carved into the floor, and a personal blood sacrifice on Ahriman’s part) in order to gain information on Amon’s plans. Unfortunately for them, Amon anticipated that they would summon this particular daemon and bound it into his service pre-emptively; it pretends to be under Ahriman’s control, then attacks him when he lets his guard down.

In Dragon Quest VI, a king is desperate to protect his kingdom from attacking Dread Fiends, so he calls on the bigger, badder demon Nokturnus to take care of them. No points for guessing what happens next. But Nokturnus is a Superboss; and if you track him down in his lair and prove yourself stronger then he is, then he'll do your bidding and take out the Big Bad for you. While being able to beat Nokturnus means beating the normal Final Boss would be no problem for you, it's still amusing to watch the Greater-Scope Villain beat down the Big Bad for you.

He succeeds, but also inadvertently calls a "Shadow", which promptly tries to kill him, then stalks him for the next several years trying to finish him off. On the bright side, it gives him the taking down a couple pegs he badly needed; on the downside, it leaves him badly scarred.

In Magic: The Gathering's Eldritch Moon expansion the Eldrazi Titan Emrakul is summoned to Innistrad, with a fairly impressive summoning circle. Controlling a titan isn't possible but there was no need to do so. Emrakul's mere presence will hideously corrupt and consume the entire world, which was the point. On the other hand Emrakul turns out to be less than happy about being tricked and provides the heroes with a method for banishing her presence.

Its predecessor Mage: The Ascension also had access to a number of summoning rituals, mostly revolving around some aspect of the Spirit Sphere (with occasional forages into the Correspondence Sphere). Furthermore, unawakened Sorcerous Paths provided access to slightly more specific examples, with rituals existing for the summoning of angels, demons, spirits and all manner of other beings.

In If the Emperor Had a Text-to-Speech Device:
When faced with a berserk daemonic Magnus, Kitten, as a last resort, swipes Magnus' book and flips through it. Then upon finding something that seems reasonable he grabs a Dreadknight and a cauldron of Sororitas blood, then chants praises to the Grey Knights backwards in order to summon Kaldor Draigo. Who defeats Magnus in about a millisecond before drifting off back to the Warp.
In the fourth Podcast, Magnus accidentally (maybe) summons a minor daemon when discussing the "true name clause". Everyone briefly freaks out before the Emperor casually obliterates the daemon.

In Naruto, some shinobi make contracts in blood with animal spirits, which require a small blood and chakra sacrifice to summon. Special mention goes to:
Naruto himself, following his mentor Jiraiya's footsteps, makes a deal with the Toads, but to win the Boss Toad's respect, has to stay on his head while the giant Boss Toad tries to throw him off. But the Toads turn out to be a good, loyal bunch, once you win their respect. They're basically a benevolent version of yakuza.
Tsunade can summon slugs, useless as it may seem. But it is useful when your slug companions can distribute your chakra easily to everyone else in the village and heal them quickly, especially in the middle of a tremendous attack.
Orochimaru and Sasuke's partners, however, the Snake family, do not seem so friendly. When Orochimaru calls the giant snake, the reptile says he'll have to serve up a hundred humans to pay for this summoning. Not that Orochimaru minds those terms.

Shouta from Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid performed a demon summoning ritual to get a Familiar and prove to his father that he's a strong wizard. Lucoa sensed the ritual and — feeling that it would be bad if a demon showed up in the middle of a Japanese suburb — teleported herself in and formed a familiar contract with him instead. Since the ritual was specifically for demons, Shouta is convinced that Lucoa is a succubus, and her Comedic Shotacon tendencies don't exactly help her attempts to convince him otherwise.

The Summoning Ritual in Fate/stay night and Fate/Zero. It requires a magic circle made of blood, a long incantation, and ideally a catalyst for the Servant that they want to summon — something closely connected that Servant. Even if everything goes right, though, there is a reason it is also in the 'Screwing Up Summoning' above.
One does not absolutely ''need' something connected to the Servant. That's useful if you want to summon a specific Heroic Spirit but technically the summoner can use themselves as a catalyst. This has the advantage that you will get a Servant with a compatible personality at the cost of not being certain to get a powerful servant.
Special mention must also go to the Fate/Zero version of Caster who's special ability is summoning Eldritch Abominations. Smaller ones can be summoned with a few words but larger ones take full rituals comparable to summoning a Servant.

Banestorm describes a setting in which the most significant historical event was in effect a vast and terribly under-specified summoning ritual. When the elves of a rather generic but human-less fantasy world attempted a continent-wide ritual to get rid of their orc problem, it turned into a Summon Everyman Hero spell writ large — and summoned a whole population of humans, who eventually took the place over. Be Careful What You Wish For. Some of the elves would like to work out a corresponding Banishing Ritual, but they haven't got there yet.

Warhammer 40,000:
Dawn of War:
In Winter Assault, one of the Chaos Levels has you mind control enough Guardsmen as sacrifices to summon a Bloodthirster to take out the Avatar of Khaine summoned by the Eldar.
In the Dark Crusade Eldar stronghold, Gameplay and Story Segregation sets in to allow the Eldar to summon the Avatar of Khaine by sacrificing an Exarch. Not that while this is how it happens in the fluff, in-game he's built like any other unit.
From Dark Crusade onwards, Chaos Lords can be turned into Daemon Princes and Bloodthirsters summoned from an Aspiring Champion or Sorcerer after the appropriate (and expensive) research. If they die, they need to be researched again.
The Dark Apostle Eliphas is brought to the planet via one of these.
Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader: Comes with the territory of the 40k universe and the endless supply of Chaos cultists held within. The prologue even ends Kunrad using one to conjure a Warp spawn onto the ship's bridge.

In Chrono Trigger, after a misadventure in the Middle Ages, the heroes accidentally end up in a Bad Future that turns out to be caused by Lavos, an Eldritch Abomination that emerged from beneath the planet's surface in an extinction event a thousand years after their home time period. After getting back to their home time, the heroes note that the nearby race of demihuman Fiends still revere their former leader, Magus, and wish that he'd been able to properly destroy humanity by summoning Lavos during the great war between Fiends and humans in the Middle Ages. So the party resolves to head back to the Middle Ages and stop Magus from ever summoning Lavos in the first place. Unfortunately, after Storming the Castle and defeating Magus, the sorcerer reveals that he didn't summon Lavos, he was merely trying to awaken it — and after a time warp sends the heroes to the prehistoric era, they witness Lavos' true arrival firsthand. More to the point, Magus was trying to wake up Lavos so he could kill it, as retribution for destroying his home in Antiquity and accidentally sending him forward in time to the Middle Ages. He only adopted the "Fiendlord" persona to get the Fiends' support and was never invested in their war with the humans. It's implied that in the original timeline, he woke up Lavos just long enough to get killed by it, so the heroes inadvertently saved his life by interfering.

The Mara summoning in Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne, which would certainly not have gotten past the ESRB (or maybe it would have) if it had gone right. It was borderline anyway — imagine getting attacked by a giant green blob who happens to have a glans for a... head (to be fair, this is easy to miss if you don't know what SMT Mara is supposed to look like). Other summoning rituals were the Seraph summoning in Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey (the Angels got it done right), and Mekata attempt to summon minions from the Abyss in Shin Megami Tensei II (which somehow ended up worse than the Mara ritual). And the rarely-ocurring event of Fusion Error wrecks the original summoner's target demon and instead produces a random result, which can vary from useless blobs of protoplasm to the highest seraphs of Heaven.

The Balanced Sword:
Poplock's debut adventure in the first book involves preventing a massive attempt to summon a powerful demon, featuring many cultists, ritual movement, chants, symbols carved into the floor, and human (technically, in this case, non-human sapient) sacrifices. He manages to create a huge explosion that disrupts the ritual and sends cultists fleeing in all directions. The demon, which has manifested insubstantially in the center of the ritual circle, orders the wizard who was leading the summoning to say the phrase that will allow it to enter the physical world; the wizard demurs, pointing out that with the ritual incomplete the demon will have no limits on its actions and might just eat him on the spot. The demon approves of his caution and they negotiate terms — which gives Poplock a chance to catch the wizard unawares and render him incapable of saying anything. The demon then tries to tempt Poplock to summon it on the same terms, even telling him the summoning phrase when he points out that he doesn't know it, but Poplock rejects the temptation and the demon is forced to depart.
During the climactic battle in the last book, the Big Bad summons the same demon to deal with Poplock. Only the end of the summoning is shown, but it's notable that the Big Bad apparently managed it single-handed, without even any human sacrifices, a sign of how much more powerful he is than the wizard leading the earlier ritual.

Rituals and sacrifices are part of the Duel Monsters card game in Yu-Gi-Oh!; stronger monsters can be summoned only by sacrificing weaker ones. Over the years, more and more summoning methods have been added, all with different flairs. Players will often recite summoning chants to summon their monsters.
Tribute Summoning is one of the most basic forms of summonings and is considered a Normal Summon. The player has to sacrifice/tribute one or two monsters (sometimes even three) to summon a monster whose Level is 5 or higher. Some monsters can be Special Summoned by tributing a number of (specific) monsters as well.
One of the closest examples to this trope is Ritual Summoning, that generally require a Ritual Spell Card and a number of sacrifices whose total Level match or succeed the Level of the Ritual Monster the player wants to summon. The Ritual Monster has to be in the player's hand, making it one of the rare and more difficult types of monsters to summon. In general, when a Ritual Summon is performed, we get to see the whole ritual setup on the field being performed, with magic circles, magic doors, or other magic items that would guide the sacrifices.
Fusion Summoning, the first type of Extra Deck Monsters, were originally literal fusions of two or more monsters, but as time went on, specific Fusion Materials aren't needed anymore, and monsters that vaguely hit certain criteria are applicable for the summon. In later installments, two or more monsters will turn into lights and form a spiral of lights that will bring out the Fusion Monster, even if it doesn't look anything like its Fusion Materials.
Synchro Summoning, the second type of Extra Deck Monsters, are similar to Ritual Summons, where the Synchro Materials have to match the exact Level of the Synchro Monster, with most of them requiring one Tuner Monster and one or more non-Tuner Monsters. The Tuner Monster will turn into one or several rings (the number of rings depend on the Level of the Tuner) with the other Synchro Materials flying trough the rings, which will summon a light that swallows them and bring out the Synchro Monster. Advanced forms of Synchro Summon have different requirements and different summon animations, including non-gameplay requirements, such as a Clear Mind or Burning Soul.
Xyz Summoning, the third Extra Deck Monster type, requires monsters of the same Level to construct the Overlay Network, which is basically a wormhole, to bring out the Xyz Monster from space. The Xyz Materials turn into light orbs known as Overlay Units and orbit around the Xyz Monster, which can use said Overlay Units to activate their own monster effects.
Pendulum Summoning requires two Pendulum Cards placed onto both Pendulum Zones, allowing the player to summon multiple monsters simultaneously from the hand and/or Extra Deck as long as the Levels of the monsters are between the Pendulum Scales. The cards in the Pendulum Zones are positioned within two pillars of light and they will open a portal in the sky drawn by an arc of light where the monsters will ascend from.
Link Summoning, the fourth type of Extra Deck Monsters, is also similar to Ritual Summons, where a circuit is created and the Link Materials will be set on the Link Markers of set circuit, with the Link Monster coming out of the circuit. Link Summoning is the easiest Extra Deck summoning method due to the fact that the material requirements aren't as strict as the previous summons. Link Monsters can also be counted as multiple materials for another Link Summon, which is often depicted with them creating phantom images of themselves.

In Baccano!, a group of alchemists, having been unsuccessful with the more accepted methods of seeking Immortality, perform an elaborate incantation (with magic circle) to summon a demon and ask it to grant them eternal life. The demon answers, and promptly chides them for wasting its time with such bibble-babble when it can read all their minds and just willing it to appear would have been sufficient.

In The Last Battle, some Calormenes decide to "summon" their god Tash as part of a big religious sham they've got going on. Notably, none of the people doing the summoning even believe Tash exists. Tash shows up anyway, to everyone's horror, and turns out to be a demon. The narration notes: "People should not call for demons unless they truly mean what they say."

In Sundered, a botched ritual plays a major role in the game’s backstory. The Eschaton high priestess Ishaela Bha’gor attempted to summon her god Nyarlathotep through a portal in the Cathedral in order to destroy the invading Valkyries, only for Valkyrie General Waters to interrupt her ritual. The two of them were squaring off to fight when the portal suddenly exploded, killing them both and tearing a hole in reality.

Vermintide II: The mission "Convocation of Decay" has a trio of Chaos Sorcerers attempt to summon daemons of the Plague God in a ritual that involves mass Human Sacrifice and a huge toxic pool. The heroes intentionally cause a Magic Misfire by simply walking into the ritual circle, which causes the magic to rebound and kill the sorcerers.

Doctor Strange: Before attempting to covertly travel to the Dark Dimension, Strange summoned entities from the realm of Satannish. The idea was to expose himself to them enough to temporarily taint his aura and avoid detection. His assistant knocking on the door and interrupting his concentration turned that into a serious struggle, since he had disabled some of the protections that would normally have shielded him from their presence.

In The Gamer's Alliance, the Clergy of Artemicia summons a magic crystal from the earth during the Day of the Damned festival in the city of Reign and release the being inside it which they hope to enslave and use in the war against the Grand Alliance. The plan doesn't exactly worked out as intended because instead of releasing the Destroyer as the clergy had hoped, an amnesiac Yamatian girl appears instead although it quickly becomes apparent that the girl in fact has Laverna, the Goddess of Thieves, trapped within her body. The clergy then decides to go for Plan B and just take the girl by force and sway the goddess to side with them, but the sudden arrival of several thieves guilds and Shakkan, the God of Beasts, ends up complicating matters as they all have different plans in mind for Laverna. Ironically the Destroyer does end up being summoned after all but in a different city. It turns out that the Dwarven Triad, one of the thieves guilds, deliberately manipulated events with their moles to make the clergy believe that they were summoning the Destroyer instead of the goddess, the Triad's objective, who they ended up with.

In The Demon Girl Next Door, this is the cause of Mikan's curse; her father summoned a demon to protect his family and business, but did it wrong, and the resulting demon took up residence in Mikan, trying to fulfill its intended purpose by lashing out at everyone around her when it senses her agitation or distress.

In Ash vs. Evil Dead the titular hero has an ally use the Necronomicon to summon Eligos the demon so that they can question it on how to banish the Deadites. Surprisingly, the ritual works perfectly until a detective trying to arrest Ash breaks the circle and Eligos is free to attack everyone.

Mage: The Awakening has several summoner builds, mainly involving an understanding of the Death (ghosts and zombies) and Spirit (elemental forces and primal concepts) Arcana. There's also a set of systems for summoning beings from the Supernal Realms; unlike standard summoning magic, however, this merely serves as the means for a pact that gives the summoner a number of slight benefits as long as it holds to the terms of a bargain.
Its predecessor Mage: The Ascension also had access to a number of summoning rituals, mostly revolving around some aspect of the Spirit Sphere (with occasional forages into the Correspondence Sphere). Furthermore, unawakened Sorcerous Paths provided access to slightly more specific examples, with rituals existing for the summoning of angels, demons, spirits and all manner of other beings.

The Bartimaeus Trilogy:
In the first novel, the apprentice summons the title djinn correctly but makes the serious mistake of letting him find out his name. Luckily for him, like Aahz, Bartimaeus' bark is worse than his bite.
In the second book, a magician messes up an incantation and is devoured by the much nastier spirit he summons. In this case, his spellbook had been deliberately sabotaged by the bookbinders for attacking their son.

In one of the first stories ever set in the Dragonlance world, Tasslehoff Burrfoot is brought to a wizard's tower by a teleporting ring. There, he interrupts the wizard's summoning of Demogorgon, allowing the Demon Prince to break free of its bindings and carry the wizard off. Turns out Demogorgon had created the ring eons ago, specifically to free it if it ever became subject to a mortal's control. Given how strong Demogorgon is, this was one of the few documented times that a kender actually felt scared.

Summoning monsters in Yu-Gi-Oh! is usually done just by playing them or tributing other monsters for them. However, there are some monsters called Ritual monsters that have to go through a specific ritual (i.e. playing a particular spell card) in order to get them out.
There's also an entire Archetype based around Ritual Summoning, the Gishki/Ritua Tribe from the Duel Terminal series, to the point that in-story when they revive the first Big Bad when end up joining the Verz.
Another Archetype based around Ritual Summons is the Vendreads, who are otherwise a parody of Resident Evil. Unlike most Ritual Monsters, their Ritual Spells are one-size-fits-all, and their non-Ritual Monsters add special effects to any monsters they're used to summon.

In the Warrior Cats: The Broken Code book Darkness Within, the Sisters perform a ritual to summon the spirits of the Clans' recently-lost cats. The ritual itself works, but there's something else going on with the spirits: they look twisted and agonized and angry — and the terrified cats quickly banish them again.

The Greenhouse:
Used to summon demons from their home planes, naturally. You can have either a specific ritual for summoning a specific demon, or a general one that opens a door and lets whichever demon can fight their way through first into the world.
The first page of the comic features the tail-end of Red's original summoner performing one... or rather, deciding she can't go through with it, and using a blood curse to bind Red into a mirror instead. This Imperfect Ritual is the source of many of the problems in the plot.
Completing the summoning with another ritual would be the easiest way to deal with 'Red', providing a safety net and reducing Red's feeding to a manageable level, on top of whatever favors Red could provide. The catch? The original summoner already set some of the terms for the contract, and they can't be overwritten. While Mica could ask for any favor she wanted once the summoning is complete, the price is set in stone: her soul once she dies.
Mica promises to summon Red properly once they've been severed. This becomes a necessity once she loses her memories of Red, since summoning her should restore them. But Red is fragmented, with part of herself still trapped in her home dimension, and that's the part that knows her summoning key: a necessity for summoning Red specifically rather than letting whatever demon is strongest/luckiest come through.
