    Summon monsters to keep it occupied. Use Potion of Mirrored Eyes to protect against its gaze (which is what turns you into a Ghoul). If you're affected by the gaze (you'll see an icon on the character portrait) use dispel magic on the person to cure it.

    I used a magic resistant character to occupy the demon while my mage cast hold monster.
    Remember to kill all the cult members before killing the demon, as it can posess them.

    A great way to keep him occupied while you kill the acolytes is to wrap him up in an Otiluke's Resilent Sphere, he's not resistant to those for some reason. So while he's bagged, you kill his boys (NOTE: cloud kill does not work on them for some reason...)

    Also as Blackthorne said, potions of mirrored eyes, dispel magic, etc.

    Other miscellaneous things that have worked:
    Magic missles get through his resistance 50% or the time, and Chromatic Orb succesfully stuns him!

    Also, remember that if one of your party members is affected by the gaze, the dispell magic must be performed within 20sec.

    What?! How did he petrify himself? Is that an effect of the potion of 'mirrored eyes?'

    dunno, could be, but it was funny as hell. The simplest fight in the game.
