Dose anyone know the title of this movie?

Question

I saw this one movie a long time ago and I'm trying to recall the name.

I'll try to tell you the most detail about the movie as I can.

I can remember it had something to do with the devil

A dog being "sacrificed" and thrown into this big hole in the back yard

A boy gets a splinter by the hole

and the final thing to summon some sort of demon, levitation occurs.

I think there was some sort of comic book too

I remember the title was like The (number)th Gate or something with gate in it.

It's pretty old from what I can remember it could be anywhere from the1970's-90's era

Anyone have any ideas?
