The infant's mutilated corpse was discovered inside a home in central Mexico, and authorities found the mutilated body in the same building.
A mum has been arrested on suspicion of killing her eight-month-old baby in an horrific Satanic ritual.
Chilling footage shows the silhouette of a baby painted in black in the lounge of a home in central Mexico.
Authorities in the city of Chimalhuacan discovered the infant's mutilated corpse in the same building.
In the same room police found ritual materials including candles, a human skull, devil figurines and oils. It was not clear whether the skull was real.
The mum, named in Mexico as Leticia N, reportedly named her child Belcebu - a variant of Beelzebub, which is sometimes another name for the devil.

She had not formally registered the birth.
The baby's unnamed father, who had split from his mother, reported to authorities in January that he had not been allowed to see his son for a while.
He told police he feared the child was being abused.
Police never found the woman at home during several visits to her house and were granted a warrant to enter by force.
Leticia was reportedly at home this time and told officers she did not know where the baby was.
But during a search of the house officers found blood stains and then the baby's mutilated corpse.
A video that was shared on social networks shows the suspected scene of the alleged fatal ritual.
In the background, the mother can be heard crying and screaming "my boy".
Her boyfriend, believed to have helped her during the ritual, was not found in the house and is being hunted by authorities.
Leticia was arrested and charged with homicide. She is being held in custody.
