Witch is the closest translation of brujo, but I don't think many witches do the revival of the dead or exorsism. So I think what you're thinking of is a witch doctor, and that has more to do with Voodoo...So voodoo witch doctor is the closest thing I can come up with.

Brujo/bruja is "witch". And all the Wiccans I know don't do bad religious things. They leave that up to the Moral Majority.

That they are probably exaggerating things a bit. Also, there are many "bad" religious things that people can do, and "bad" depends on which religion you practice. Those of my religion believe that proselytizing is bad for a religion to do, but look at those religions who do! It all depends on your point of view. Don't forget to take others' points of view into account, too.

Witchcraft is bad for as religion but exorcism is not bad. Jesus cast out demonic spirits out of people who was possessed.

who deems those things as "bad"? If you were possessed would you not want to be set free?
