The Exorcism of Anna Ecklund Page #3

Yes, I know.

Look...

You do realize

that they're not gonna hospitalize

your friend this time, don't you?

I'm just...

I'm just looking for options here.

She's my best friend, okay?

I want what's best for her.

They're gonna lock her away

in an asylum, Laura.

- Do you want that for your best friend?

- No, I don't want that.

I want her to get better.

I miss her a lot.

I know.

Just a few questions

and I'll be on my way, okay?

Okay.

Is there anything that's...

that's happened to Anna

during the times that you spent with her?

You know, maybe it seems...

...unusual?

What do you mean by "unusual"?

I don't know.

Anything that seemed strange or maybe...

...different.

Look, I just don't think I should be

talking to you about this, okay?

Okay.

Wait!

Okay, there's one thing.

Um, it was a few years ago,

but I bought this pet rabbit, right?

And I invited Anna and a few friends over

to come play with it, and...

It was so little.

It was always trembling all the time.

I thought there was something wrong

with it or something, and...

When Anna touched it, she picked it up,

it would immediately stop trembling.

Its eyes would just glaze over

like it was so content and happy.

And I remember her

putting it back in its box,

and it just laid out like it was

tanning itself on a beach, and...

It didn't do that with anyone.

I mean, it was so responsive to her touch.

Any other experiences like that?

Okay, well...

After that incident with the rabbit,

I got it in my head that she had

these powers from her hands,

like she had this healing energy.

She thought it was ridiculous,

of course, but...

my mom was always in all this pain.

She had developed

this S curve in her spine.

She was always miserable from it, and...

I was begging Anna to try to help her,

but, of course, she said no

and laughed at me.

She didn't think she could help.

But I was relentless,

and finally, she gave in.

And...

I shouldn't be telling you this.

Father, as soon

as she touched my mom's spine...

and neck and hips...

her spine just straightened out.

I mean, over the course of 15 minutes.

I was the only one there, and I just saw

the whole thing happen. I mean...

My jaw dropped. My mom wasn't

in any pain anymore after that.

It was absolutely incredible.

- Did you share that with anyone?

- No.

Anna begged us not to tell anyone.

I mean, I think she was scared

of this gift that she had, and...

She's a religious girl, okay?

She goes to church every week, and...

she didn't want people to think she was

some sort of charlatan or something.

The subject Anna Ecklund has received

both a medical

and psychiatric consultation.

And neither consultation
