Have you baptized your Labubu?
Quote:TikTok users worldwide are staging mock 'baptisms' of the toy, believing it resembles Pazuzu, the demon from The Exorcist.
The bizarre trend has ignited cultural anxiety, even as folklore experts refute any occult origins. The trend began late August 2025, when Labubu toys, part of the Pop Mart collectable range, were linked by social media users to the ancient Mesopotamian demon featured in William Friedkin's 1973 horror classic 'The Exorcist'.
Video clips posted on TikTok showed users staging mock baptisms of the figures, pouring water over them while reciting prayers. The phenomenon has spread across the United States, the Philippines, and the United Kingdom.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
