Meet the Charlie’s Angels of Exorcism (and Probably Fraud)

Hoo boy. Three teen girls with supernatural powers to cast out demons! Currently shopping themselves for a reality TV show.

And one girl happens to be the spawn of "Rev." Bob Larson, which pretty much tells me all I need to know.

If Bob Larson were any more of a douche, Summer's Eve would sue him for product infringement:

On to the story! From one of my favorite sites, Jezebel.com:

Bad news. Chances are that you have a demon inside of you. I know you thought that you were an autonomous being making your decisions through either reasoning or impulse, but you are wrong.

There is a bit of the devil inside you and he controls everything you do apart from wearing pastels and reading The Family Circus in Sunday's paper. Luckily, Pastor Bob Larson and his exorcist team of teenage girls — "normal girls who do something extraordinary for God" — can help you for a fee.

Related Jezebel story: Teen Exorcists Shopping Reality Show Can’t Possibly Be Faking

Another nail in this stunt's bullshit coffin is the fact that these girls and their mentor are currently shopping a reality show about a trio of teen exorcists. You can't blame them for trying — after all, they've got all the important elements of a successful crazy reality show down pat: teenage girls, extreme religious ideology, the supernatural, senior portrait hair, chirpiness and Satan.

We command those demons to BE GONE!

on edit: Even though Ben Franklin wasn't a President, he started those cursed SOCIALIST fire brigades. We especially cast out his foul demon!

2. I used to listen to Bob Larsen on the radio years ago. He was a loon then and he is a loon now.

i can't abide pastel shirts & "The Family Circus". i am probably infested with the biblical plague of the demonic legions -- which were cast into the Gadarene swine & have now decided to go for a vegetarian diet; since they're sick of being stuck in the belly of the beasts for two millennia. where in heaven's name, are Bobby Jindal & Nikki Haley, when you need 'em.

Well, that's what this woman says. This clip has EVERYTHING - Satan, demons, the Illuminati. And helpful graphic examples of Fallen Women!

No, it doesn't appear to be a Poe. This...person natters on for FOUR YouTube videos full of similar ranting:




Oddly enough, I found that jewel while looking for this OTHER Jezebel Spirit...

lmao

Does anyone really have to disprove them? Let them get a reality show for all I care, though. If they're entertaining enough, they could go on Ghost Adventures or something and prove further cheesy entertainment.
