3 main steps
The process of banishing consists of 3 steps:
- Identify the body
- identify the demon's name
- burn the body
Which body to burn?
It is very important to choose the body correctly. There are 3 bodies during your shift. at the start of the shift they reside in the cold storage. One of them is possesed. So how to tell which one fo them?

1) Pay attention to the body that you are embalming. There are 3 "triggers" which can be a sign of possesion:
- New marks (burns, rash, scratches, etc) may appear on the body
- The body may twitch a little (look at the hands and feet)
- The smile may appear. After stitching up the jaw pay attention to the mouth of the body. If it looks like your dead man is smiling - thats a sign of posession.

2) Pay attention to the haunts and events. There are two particular events, involving bodies that can proove it's posessed.
- The "slamming doors" event. The little doors in the cold storage will open and close repeatedly. After that one of the bodies will roll out of the storage. The body that rolls out - is the one which is posessed.
- The event when one of the bodies appear in the hallway to the cold storage. A ghost figure representing one of the bodies you embalm may appear there.

3) The end-game sigil. In the computer dtabase you can fing the "house of the demon" where all names of hellish creatures are said. identify demon's name by the sigils you find in the mortuary and see the mail sigil, symbolising this demonic house/domain (there is only 3 of them).
You can pick up the matches (reception room) and the ash bag (cold storage room in front of incenerator). Then you can fill the bag with ash (ash is under the incenerator). Than apply the ash bag to the body you suspect is posessed. The ash will appear on it's stomack. Now ypu need to use matches on this ash. The sigil will appear from the ashes.
If the body is possesed the sigil of the "demon's house" will be the same as the one on the body. If they are different, than the body is 100% NOT posessed.
What is the demon's name?
There are letting strips in your wooden closet (old drawer) on the left from the computer. You can use them to get the sigils which represent the demon's name. Demon's name consists of 4 sigils.

Take the letting strip in your inventory. Then press Q. When you getting closer to the sigil, the letting strip will smoke, burn and eventualy evaporate in flames. After this a sigil will uncover. It man appear on the walls or the floor.

At the start of the shift you can uncover only 2 sigils. While embalming the 2nd body you can uncover one more. During the 3rd embalming - the last sigil.
There are 4 fixed places in which the sigils appear:
- Embalming room
- Reception
- Hallway to the cold storage
- Cold storage

After getting all 4 sigils you have to put them togather correctly. Open up the "Nightshift database" in computer (the password is written on the back doctors access card in the drawer near the doors to the hallway of cold storage). There you can find the demon's names. Choose the one which contains only the sigils you found. Remember the order in whisch they are put in.
Now you can write this name on the mark.
Send him to hell!
- Put the Mark on the corect body
- Roll it to the incenerator
- Press the red button

Congratulations! Now you can hear demon screaming in agony!

In the lobby there is a box of matches on the table between the bathroom and hallway to the embalming room. There is only one match available, pick it up later. In the cold storage and retort (cremation) room on the bottom shelf is a bag to collect the ashes from the retort. Putting the ashes on a suspect body and then lighting it with the match will burn a mark of one of the demon houses as a hint.

I finished the game in 105 minutes, it kept glitching so I had to exit and restart :(. Ended up banishing the wrong demon

After uncovering 2 sigils, check the computer to see what options are available. I've narrowed down the demon's name with as little as two sigils and in almost ever case, can do it with only three. This can get you an achievement if you don't need to embalm a third body. An additional check (aside from burning ashes) is to bring the suspected body over a revealed mark (if it's in the hallway or body storage). You may have to work to maneuover it a bit to get it to start to move. All bodies move, somewhat, but the less work moving them into the perfect spot, and the more they move, the more likely it's possessed. I've had bodies move arms and talk. If you're bringing the suspected body to the cremation room and the mark is built, put it on the body for the ride from the embalming room. It'll start talking, A LOT, trying to convince you you are wrong. The more it talks, the more likely you're right.
