Do you believe in exorcisms and demonic possession?
It's a really controversial subject, but is there an official church position?

Exorcisms

Obviously the Church admits the efficacy of exorcisms, otherwise she would not have officially appointed exorcists. There would be no other reason for exorcism than demonic possession.
Short answer, an emphatic yes.

Did anybody see such instance personally? As far as I'm concerned, possession happens only in horror movies.
The exorcists do. On a routine basis.
I have not, though I have known people whose mere presence made me quite uncomfortable, there was just something malevolent about them. I wouldn't go so far as to say they were "possessed", but they weren't the kind of people with whom I'd want to spend any time if I could help it.
The various well-known exorcists, such as Fr Ripperger, could tell us quite a bit.
