Satanic Crime: A Threat in the New Millennium For several decades mainstream media outlets have been hesitant to report crimes which involve Satanism. When such incidents do receive coverage the diabolical aspects of the story are hardly touched upon and tend to never be followed up with further investigation. Satanic Crime is the first book to pull many of these under-reported stories together and offers a birds-eye-view of Devil Worshipers who commit murders. This is also the first study to examine the links between elite Luciferian secret societies and Satanic serial killers. Case studies include; Charles Manson, “Son of Sam” David Berkowitz, “Night Stalker” Richard Ramirez, Satanic killer Ricky Kasso, “Norway’s Wolfman” Varg Vikernes, Joe Fiorella who committed an act of ritual necrophilia, Columbine killers Harris and Kleobold, “Angel of Death” Jeff Weise, Rodrigo Orias who decapitated a Catholic priest for Lucifer, Andrea Volpe who ritually murdered a girl who he saw as a personification of the Virgin Mary. Links between the Skull and Bones Society, Bohemian Grove and White House “journalist” Jeff Gannon are investigated as well as the connection between the Bilderberg Group and Belgium’s Satanic child pornographer Marc Dutroux. Bonus Features: Access to the Satanic Crime Multimedia Section with hours of free film documentaries and audios related to the Satanic case studies. Solidly documented from published sources, Satanic Crime answers the questions: “Why does the mainstream media avoid reporting on Satanism?” “What association do major world leaders have with Devil Worship?” Be prepared for the Shock of your Life!

Adam Scott Miller - the artist who designed the cover for Satanic Crime - has won a prestigious scholarship for an MFA from the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown, Massachusetts. Adam was selected from 1000s of applicants from around the world for this three-year program. I am absolutely certain that Adam would have won the scholarship even if I did not commission this work; I am pleased that he used the cover in the portfolio he submitted to win the scholarship. I plan to commission Adam for more covers for Mystic Valley Media books because I feel he is, without a doubt, the greatest “gothedelic” artist on the planet! William H.

To this end, a provisional definition of Satanism is necessary. Satanism may be defined as a belief system which seeks to venerate the Fallen Angel Lucifer, either as a metaphysical being or as a metaphor. That some Satanists see the Devil purely as a symbol while others as a genuine spiritual entity turns out to be irrelevant when considering the underlying theology and long-term goals of this movement. Although many factors contributed to the growth of this diabolical belief system over the centuries, the contemporary movement can be traced to the activities of one individual who gave shape to the modern world of Satanism. Aleister Crowley: The Godfather of Modern Satanism In any discussion of contemporary Satanism, the figure of Aleister Crowley (1875- 1947) looms like a mafia Godfather over a shadowy underworld. Crowley (rhymes with “holy”) is the single most influential character in the formation of modern Satanism and Witchcraft (Wicca). Born into a wealthy family who were the sole owners of a brewery and pub chain, Crowley resented the stern Christian upbringing and harsh Victorian morals inflicted upon him in his native Britain. (1) Crowley enrolled at Cambridge University but never graduated, having instead chosen to embark upon a period of self-examination and the study of occult doctrine. It should be noted that Crowley was a world-class mountain climber and a minor celebrity as a young man. However, the majority of his time was spent on the study of ritual magic and mystical practices. Much of this esoteric exploration was Satanic in nature, despite claims to the contrary by Crowley’s contemporary followers. In his quest for spiritual enlightenment, Crowley used drugs with meditative practices and sex rituals to form a system of sex-magick. (Crowley used the alternative spelling magick to distinguish his metaphysical teachings from stage magic.) Within this system, devotees claim that drugs, visualization, and the frenzy of sex cause them to merge with their chosen deity. In one ritual which Crowley undertook early in his career, he identified himself as Jesus Christ. In fact, the most popular photograph of Crowley shows him postured like Christ on the Cross. (2) Crowley’s mock crucifixion mimics Lucifer’s rebellion, which is recounted in Isaiah Chapter 14. It constitutes a reenactment of the Fallen Angel’s attempt to invert Heaven and be worshiped as God. It is a ceremonial imitation of Lucifer’s mutiny 2 Satanic Crime and represents a mini-victory
