Dozens of children from Peru school in outbreak of 'contagious demonic possession'

Dozens of children from Peru school in outbreak of 'contagious demonic possession'

It started about three weeks ago, when about 20 children from the Elsa Perea Flores School in Peru became violently ill.

They displayed the same terrifying symptoms; muscular convulsions - some developing into full blown seizures - fainting, vomiting, delirium and frothing at the mouth.

The children, all aged between 11 and 14, shared another unsettling trait - a shared hallucination involving being chased by a "tall man in black with a beard" who was trying to kill them.

Since then, between 80 and 100 children from the school have been affected by what education officials are calling a mass case of "contagious demonic possession or interference".

Video footage recorded at the school shows screaming children being taken by trucks to nearby hospitals.

on with these children. Demonic possession sounds like the 16th century. It's horrifying.

Of course, the man in black trying to kill them with the other group may have been a Monsanto agent trying to keep them from telling what they had been eating, where they had been playing, etc. prior to their sudden illnesses!
