An incident at a beach in southern Euboea has caused anger and indignation, with a 48-year-old robe-wearing YouTuber at the center of it all.

According to eyewitness accounts, the man poses as a monk and performs exorcisms and blessings on the beach.

According to information from ekklisiaonline, this individual, who has a prior record of run-ins with the law, carried out a blessing and exorcism on a beach in Euboea.

The incident unfolded before the stunned eyes of a 12-year-old girl, her mother, and her 14-year-old brother, at a time when lagocephalus pufferfish, one of the most toxic fish in the Mediterranean, were present on the shore.

The Incident Happened in Front of the Children’s Mother

After performing the exorcism, the man in robes urged the 12-year-old to go into the water and pick up the pufferfish, telling her: “You don’t need to be afraid anymore. I have performed an exorcism. It is harmless now. By the power of the Holy Cross, the demon has left.”

Those words enraged the children’s mother, who immediately began filming the incident on her phone. Eyewitnesses say the man reacted aggressively, grabbed her phone, and threw it to the ground.

When the woman warned him she would contact the police, he responded by hurling obscene insults at her in front of her children and then fled the scene on foot.
