An aspergillum (or aspergill) is a tool used to sprinkle holy water. It comes in two common forms: a brush that is dipped in the water and shaken, and a perforated ball at the end of a short handle. Some have internal reservoirs that dispense holy water when shaken, others rely on being dipped in an aspersorium (holy water bucket) periodically.

The aspergillum has also been featured in many role-playing games as a method for fighting the undead, vampires, demons or any other number of mythical creatures affected by holy water.
