A Peruvian teenager has claimed she became possessed by the devil after playing with a Ouija board using a mobile phone app.

Patricia Quispe, from Chosica, in the Lima province of Peru, ended up 'possessed by evil spirits' after using a mobile phone version of the board game.

Shocking footage filmed at a local hospital shows Miss Quispe thrashing and convulsing while screaming for her mother and shouting at 'the devil' to 'let her go'.

Friends of the teenager say they had downloaded the app over the weekend for a bit of fun, and had joked about trying to communicate with the spirit world.

Upon returning home, her parents noticed that she seemed to be unwell and eventually called an ambulance when she began convulsing and foaming around her mouth.

Thinking that their daughter may have eaten something or taken a drug that would cause an allergic reaction, they contacted her friends who told them about the Ouija board.

In the video from the hospital, medical staff can be seen trying to restrain the young girl who is convulsing violently and struggling as she shouts '666' followed by 'let me go, let me go'.

In another segment she can be heard shouting: 'Please give me my phone' and 'Mum, these doctors don't know what they're doing, take me home.'

Witnesses told local news they had no doubt that she had been possessed by 'satanic spirits'.

Friends of the teen said her personality had changed and she had started speaking in a different voice as she lost control of her body - and calling out for the devil.

Medics confirmed that the young woman seemed to be extremely strong and it was difficult to control her, and said they struggled for more than half an hour before finally managing torestrain her.
