In legal terms, possession is not always synonymous with ownership [19]. It is often defined as the physical occupancy or control over an object or property [19, 23].

Supernatural possession is often depicted as a malevolent entity inhabiting a human body, influencing their actions and thoughts [8, 12].

A critical element of legal possession is the right to exclude others from using or interfering with the property [19, 23]. 2. The Language of Belonging

Different cultures and religions interpret this phenomenon through various lenses, ranging from spiritual transgressions that require exorcism to conditions that modern science might categorize as psychological illnesses like schizophrenia or epilepsy [13, 15]. 5. Possession in Literature

Grammatically, possession is how we signal relationships between people and things. It serves as a shorthand for "belonging to" or "associated with" [11, 27].
