Crossword Genius

Mad, being had (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

possessed

I believe this is a double definition.

'mad' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'being had' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for possessed that I've seen before include "held as property" , "in need of bell, book and candle" , "Controlled by a devil, say" , "Owned - by evil spirit?" , "being mad?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
