    Demons

  • Answer

    pikemen

  • Solution

    Given the five images in the zip file, do as it says in the task "discard a couple, but keep most". Discard two of the images, and keep three. Then merge them by logical XOR, "exorcist" is a hint to this. If you selected the correct three images, you'll get a QR-code, which is a link to a nice video. The video is unrelated, but if you apply the same logic to the filenames of the three correct files, you get a hex-string that can be interpreted as ASCII, resulting in pikemen. This task uses ISO 18004.
