This rare and disturbing footage has been released of a woman writhing around on the floor and screaming as an exorcism is performed on her in Argentina.

The 22-year-old woman, identified only by her first name Laura, is pinned to the ground as Bishop Manuel Acuna, 52, drives the evil spirits out of her.

As she screams ‘No, No’ and spits ‘Whore’ at one of the women holding her down, Bishop Acuna is heard muttering: "Leave, leave her now."

Before the exorcism, locals gathered at the Lutheran Charismatic Church in the capital Buenos Aires, praying for her soul and redemption.

Bishop Acuna told them: "The demon exists.

"He’s not an idea, he’s not a theory, he’s not something abstract.

"The devil is a personality and therefore has a strategy.

"We are talking about something terrifying, a fallen angel.

"The devil is not a metaphor.

"The devil is something real that Jesus Christ faced.

"The devil looks for the perdition of the human being and for this he will use any possible evil instrument."

"She was a good girl but turned bad when the devil possessed her"She had to be exorcised, she had to be free."

The exorcism comes to an end as she suddenly gives a strangled cry and then suddenly closes her eyes and falls backwards exhausted, wiping away tears as the priest once again makes the sign of the cross over her body.

Bishop Acuna said: "Thank God, we’ve recovered a daughter of God.

"You haven’t seen a major exorcism.

"This was a group of demons similar to the ones that Jesus faced.

Perhaps an exorcism that banishes demons is more apropos than elections that change nothing.

Psychomotor epilepsy aka temporal lobe epilepsy would be a good bet here.

I hope this girl has a future now that the demon has been cast out. However the only sure way to fend off evil spirits is to be filled with the Holy Spirit of Christ Jesus.

Luke 11: 24 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith , I will return unto my house whence I came out . 25 And when he cometh , he findeth it swept and garnished . 26 Then goeth he , and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in , and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first.
