Little Lunch, sorry you had to endure that. For sure that sounds bat shit crazy. When I was 10 or 11 I tried to use the "I have a headache" excuse to get out of going to the revival. This ended in complete fail. I can still remember them all having their hands on me and speaking in tongues. At my grandmothers request they were trying to heal me with the Holy Spirit. It was Horrifying, you can see some crazy shit at a Pentecostal Revival. People in trances and The Lord speaking through them. It's all expectations that they are trying to live up to that's set on them by the ring leader (the preacher). You're not a good Pentecost if you don't feel The Lord and let him speak through you. Except for a few of them that Im pretty sure are mentally ill. Still just the power of persuasion.
