– A woman died after taking part in an exorcism

– Witch doctors placed her inside a wooden barrel and steamed to death

– Villagers found her and tried to save but she died shortly after

A woman, surnamed Li, suffering from an undisclosed disease was steamed to death in a wooden barrel during an exorcism ritual Sichuan province, China last Saturday, on February 27. 

According to local media reports, the woman’s family hired two “witch doctors” to cure her from an unknown illness, causing constant pain. Li’s fellow villager described the incident as really terrifying and said her neighbours rushed to her house after hearing her heart-rending cries.

When they arrived they saw local doctors literally stewing Li in a large wooden barren heated by the vat of boiling water underneath and refusing to stop the so-called treatment. But the “wizards” justified their actions by saying it was the demon screaming and not the woman.

Despite their objections villagers released Li, who was not able to stand on her own and her face turned coal-black. They took her into the house and called medical workers, who unfortunately failed to save her life.
