This is the title of a play by SaadAllah Wannous, but since I haven't actually seen the play I don't know what he is referring to.

Witch Prickling

(الخير والشر) ليحاسبا البغلي على جريمته ومن أجل الخلاص يبدأ «القاتل الجديد» باقتراح أشياء قد تشغل السيد والسيدة «خير - شر» ليتحول المشهد إلى «سكتشات» قصيرة وساخرة تحمل رموزاً مختلفة أو بالأحرى «نغزات» كالحديث باسم الحب، العنف، والدين

You could use "Witch Prickling" a game involving "pins" and "devils" as a metaphor similar to the one used by the author in title of the play.
