Father Carlos Martins shared a harrowing account of performing an exorcism, describing the chilling moments a woman exhibited unexplained strength and defied gravitational norms.
“She hit my skull with such force I needed two surgeries to repair the damage,” he said during a new episode of “Hang Out with Sean Hannity.”
Martins recalled how the woman lifted and threw a large man across the room like a rag doll, sending him 15 feet with “remarkable” fluidity.
“He did a complete turn in the air and landed on his rear end,” the Catholic priest said.

Martins described how the possessed woman caused a screw to unscrew itself without touching anything, then watched as it flew into her hand.
“And then she pointed at the light switch on the wall. You know, a typical light switch has two screws. The cover plate has two screws holding it in the wall,” he said. “The top one unscrewed itself.”

“It came through the air into her hand, into her open hand, and then she drove it into her left arm,” he continued.
The Catholic priest, who said he has encountered “multiple dozens” of possessed individuals, described how another man exhibited animalistic behavior and a 14-year-old whose reflection disappeared in the mirror.
“I have seen, for example, somebody jump out of a chair and start hissing like a cat and his canine teeth seemed to be over an inch long,” he told Fox News host Sean Hannity.

“There was a young lady, a girl, 14 years old or so. Her reflection wouldn’t show up in the mirror. So, you could be there in a group in front of the mirror, everybody will show up. She doesn’t. In a photograph, the whole group will show up. She doesn’t.”
Martins attributed those phenomena to the devil’s ability to “bend light.”
He said the 1973 horror film “The Exorcist” accurately portrays many aspects of a real-life exorcism, including people displaying extraordinary strength, saying “everything” in the movie could happen — with the exception of the famous moment when the girl’s head made a 360-degree turn.
Martins said every diocese is required to have at least one exorcist and to become one you have to be asked. Not every priest can perform exorcisms, he said, because “you can get yourself hurt really easily.”
