* In the Polish horror movie ''Hellhole'', set at an isolated monastery that performs exorcisms, undercover cop Marek learns pretty quickly that the "exorcisms" are no such thing. The monks use various tricks to fake demonic possessions so the Vatican will keep giving them money, and the mysterious disappearances he's investigating are the result of the monks kidnapping people to be "possession" victims and then disposing of them. They've also got some pretty out-there beliefs about [[spoiler: how the Devil should be summoned into the world to punish the evils of humanity, through the medium of a ChosenOne born under an eclipse, who they believe to be Marek himself. The monks perform the ritual to summon the Devil into Marek...and nothing happens. Their faith shaken, they cover up their crimes by stabbing Marek and dumping him in the well they believed to be a hellgate, and attempt to return to business as usual. And then we cut to Marek resurrecting. The last ten or so minutes of the movie are the beginning of the apocalypse the monks so desired--[[EvilIsNotAToy starting with them.]]]]

** In "Nadelman's God" (collected in ''Literature/DarkGods'', Nadelman, a businessman who wrote horror stories back in his youth, is repeatedly harassed by a LoonyFan named Huntoon.

[[spoiler:When Huntoon summons it, it turns out that the creature is ''real'', and willing to do Huntoon's bidding. However, it turns out it would much rather serve Nadelman.]]
** In "Black Man With a Horn" (also collected in ''Dark Gods''), an author and colleague of Creator/HPLovecraft discovers that some of Lovecraft's "creations" are real, and winds up being stalked by what may or may not be [[Franchise/CthulhuMythos Nyarlhotep]].
