Related: About this forumTeenage Exorcists Slam 'Harry Potter' On London Visit Because Magic Comes 'From Satan'

The Huffington Post | By Yasmine Hafiz
These teenage exorcists have a target in their sights as they arrive in London to battle demons -- Harry Potter.
Brynne Larson, 18, Tess Sherkenback, 18, and her sister Savannah, 21, have been performing exorcisms since high school under the leadership of Brynne's father Rev. Bob Larson, who claims to have performed over 15,000 exorcisms.
BBC3's clip of the upcoming documentary "Teen Exorcists," shows the poised and photogenic trio earnestly talking to filmmaker Dan Murdoch about why they consider London a "center of witchcraft." The Arizona girls headed to London as part of their first international tour with Rev. Larson, and they believe that J.K. Rowling's beloved Harry Potter series is responsible for an upsurge of occult activity in the U.K.
Savannah seriously weighed in on why London is full of dark forces, explaining, "I think it's been centuries in the making, but I believe it all kind of came to a pinnacle, a peak, with the Harry Potter books that have come out, and the Harry Potter rage that swept across England."

He did exorcisms over the phone while he was on the air. After the exorcism, of course, he would ask for donations so he could continue his vital work. He was amazing to listen to!
If these girls are anything like him, they're getting rich.

Reminds me of the French homeopath who was delivering homeopathic remedies by telephone.
Both are equally scams. This guy knows he's a fraud.
Amazing what ignorance lets people get away with.
