This scroll generates a magic circle of 10' radius which extends from,
and moves with, the reader.
All creatures within its confines are protected from possession by
magical
spell attacks such as magic jar; attack forms aimed at possession or
mental
control or psychic energy drain which are psionically based or magically
based; or demon, devil, night hag,
or similar creature possession (obsession).
This protects even dead bodies if they are within the magic circle.
<Lesser Protection?><Short Protection?> The protection lasts for
10 to 60 rounds in 90% of these scrolls;
<Greater Protection?><Long Protection?> 10% have power which
lasts 10 to 60 turns, but the protection is stationary.

your assumption regarding
dead bodies, and animals for that matter, is correct.
they can be turned by clerics
as "special."
I'd vary chances depending
on the strength of the possessing entity, but all will be difficult to
turn.
