- My name is Carlos Oliveira.
I'm known as Brother Carlos.
I'm probably the craziest exorcist out there.
Because I do stuff that the average ones don't.
I go into situations that the average don't.
I do what I do because of a passion that I have in my heart
and obviously, a calling from my god in heaven.

What got me into performing exorcisms
was a situation that happened in 1989
when a woman who was possessed by evil spirits
began punching me and I did not know what to do.
I had no clue about evil spirits.
We were doing a seminar in a church
and I called for help and my friends came
and performed an exorcism on that woman.
Then I saw the woman, who was thrown to the floor
by the demonic, get up and just walk away
as if nothing had happened and when that happened,
I felt I was called.
I felt there was a calling in my life
to be helping people spiritually.
I'm Carlos!
Brother Carlos, how are you doing?
- Good and my name is Laurie.
- When I meet people in need of deliverance,
I usually start with an investigation.
I wanna know what they're feeling,
when did that happen, what is that that happened
that brought those problems upon their lives.
- I still struggle with smoking.
- [Carlos] Okay.
- I'm diabetic and insulin-dependent.
- [Carlos] Mm hm.
- And I have stomach problems a lotta the time.
- Now based on what they tell me,
I can also perceive that there may
be other things related to those.
Then I start asking questions.
Have you ever had an encounter with evil spirits?
Then that's when I find out where the demonic is residing
and why they are in.
- I had to renounce witchcraft
because I was introduced to witchcraft.
- After the investigation, when I know the kind of spirits
that are there, then I proceed to perform an exorcism.
Father, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ,
we just come before your Holy Triangle--
- Thank you, Jesus.
- We ask that you forgive us of all sins
we have committed against you and against those
made in your image.
Exorcism is the casting out of evil spirits.
Some people call deliverance.
No weapon formed against us shall prosper
in the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we pray.
When I confront demons in people,
I usually start out by making eye contact.
Why?
Because the eyes are the windows of the soul.
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth,
I command every demonic spirit brings about and empowers
assigned against this woman right now to surface.
From there, I begin calling names.
I already know some of the demons
that are there by that time.
Then I begin.
I go after them.
In the name of Jesus Christ,
I command you now to lose this woman!
Lose her! (he snaps)
In Jesus' mighty name.
That's when, in some cases, people start manifesting,
screaming, falling to the floor.
In Jesus' mighty name, feel the torment
right now on you.
So now I know I'm in control.
Now I know I'm in charge of the game.
So now I know exactly what to do
to get those creatures out of those people.
Come out now, demons that have been
causing this woman to suffer so much!
Get out!
Come out in Jesus' mighty name.
I don't go by the book.
I don't go by the Rite of Exorcism.
I just get to the demons right away.
Feel the fire burning every single
one of you unclean spirits!
Leave this woman right now!
Today is the day of her redemption!
During the process of exorcism,
I always encounter resistance from the demonic
because in some case, they've been there for so many years.
In their minds, they own that body.
They own that person.
They own that soul.
That's why they resist in some cases.
Sometimes they communicate, they speak in the third person.
Evil spirits, I'm talking to you.
You made her sell voodoo dolls, didn't you?
Yes or no.
- Make them.
And put curses on people.
- Who's talking to me right now?
- A witchcraft demon.
- Witchcraft demon's talking, huh?
You see, I don't let their mind game
play games with my mind.
Look in my eyes, Witchcraft!
I am commanding you!
I am commanding you now, look in my eyes.
I already know that demons are liars and they are losers.
When they say, I'm not leaving,
I say, who do you think you are?
You are leaving.
- I'm gonna kill you like I killed--
- [Carlos] Oh, you're gonna kill who?
You're gonna kill who?
- You!
- Who do you think you are?
It doesn't happen many times, but sometimes demons say
they're gonna kill me.
They said that before, I'm still alive.
They said that 20 years ago, I'm still alive.
Nicotine, you cannot live inside this body anymore!
Nicotine! - Get out of me!
- [Carlos] You cannot!
What?
- I said, get out of me.
I'm tired of battling it.
- When I pull the demon out, what I normally do
is I bind them, I handcuff them and I restrain them
because I want to forbid them from coming back.
Come out of her and go to the bed!
Right now in Jesus' mighty name.
Go! (he snaps)
I want to send the demon out.
I want to send the demon away but I wanna make sure
that demon is restrained for eternity.
Laurie, come up here, Laurie.
Talk to me.
Laurie, are you there?
- Yes.
- Okay.
Well, people know the kind of problems
they are going through.
Skeptics out there can't pinpoint
what other people are going through.
Jesus loves you so much.
- I know. - Okay?
He loves you so much.
He hasn't forgotten about you.
(soft music)
You are his child.
Okay?
Even though people may reject you,
but Jesus never rejected you.
- I know.
- So, these people, they know what they're facing is real.
So that's why you see that emotional reaction from someone,
like crying, because the person is feeling relief.
Who knows, maybe for the first time in several years.
Abuse, abandonment, rejection.
Come out.
(soft music)
There are people out there that choose not to believe,
but what somebody's feeling is what they're feeling.
You cannot say they're not feeling that.
It brought me joy to see Laurie feel better
and feel like a relief.
You had pain when you came in?
- Yes.
- You have no pain right now.
- No.
- Now she was able to see the spirits
that were oppressing her for so long, now being cast out.
So, the demons are gone.
Okay? - And I feel at peace.
- [Carlos] You feel peace.
Okay? - I feel free.
- What a joy to see someone like Laurie
get that kind of freedom and go back home
with less stress than she had when she came in.
- Thank you.
- Praise the Lord!
Oh!
(reciting bible)
Amen.
- It felt like an amazing experience because I was in pain,
all the pain is gone out of my body and I truly believe
that Jesus used Brother Carlos to set me free.
- I choose not to doubt when people tell me their stories.
I know they're real.
I know what they're feeling is real.
I know that.
So that's why I do what I do and I love helping
as many people as I can.
And I will continue doing this for as long as I live.
Amen.
