House in Bethany + choose the blocker

 I have house in Bethany in play.....I rescue with my Luke hero, and I choose the blocker to have my opponent block with one of my demons, does that count for the Houses' effect to trigger?

No, HoB does not trigger if you have them block with one of your demons.  They key word on HoB is "opponent's demon".  That means they have to both own and control the demon.  In your example they only control it, you still own it.

A similar situation came up with choose the bocker using Self and them playing Job Overcomes to force your opponent to discard 7.  Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on which side of the table you're on) that doesn't work either.

If you choose one of THEIR demons it works, but not if you choose one of your own.

Unless you use the combo to make it work...  ;)  My opponent was surely dismayed when I pulled it off...

Are there any ways to give your opponent an Evil Character?

It's very complicated and involves side battles, at least two separate rescue attempts (IIRC), and Seven Wicked Spirits. ;)
