At this point, Vanya believes him without difficulty. The world she comes from is strange in that it seems magic of some sort is possible. Ghosts are very real: they've tortured her brother to restlessness his whole life. Until she got here and met Sam, she never considered what this might mean about the afterlife, or different types of afterlife. She can't say she doesn't believe in evil. She's embodied it. There was no exorcism for her: she was in control every second. No time can be spent on which is more terrible.
Several moments pass in which Vanya is attempting to speak and failing spectacularly. Her face is growing redder by the second as she sort of... stares at him. It's not her finest moment, but far from her worst.
"I - um. Wow. That's-- I-I'm sorry I don't know what to say." She closes in on herself a bit, but finally comes up with, "that must be difficult work."

Nice, Vanya. Real nice.
