Wicked Walpurgisnacht!

On this 59th anniversary of the founding of the Church of Satan, we, who are inspired by the pioneering efforts of Anton Szandor LaVey, take this night to celebrate his insights into the beast called Man. While about us is chaos, we stay focused on our goals—becoming the best versions of ourselves we can attain. A new interview with me has been published on our Dutch language portal, Des…

WITCHPURGISNACHT

Wicked Witches & Warlocks gather at the summit's mount

Abyssal valley agape aglow with embers of Hellmouth

Lucifer laughs upon the howling winds that take them high above

Pyre cast shadows madly dancing demons, incubi, succubi, satyrs and nymphs

Underworld adjoined this unholy Sabbath's night, sublimely evil sights!

Riding the stanchions of Hellish embrace, Dragons swirl amidst the Storm's face

Ghastly forms from darkness rise, by candlelight the ghoulish rites!

In the name of The Mighty Beast, we dine upon the sacrificial feast!

Spells and incantations, Words of Power echo across the land infernal!

Nocturnal reverie, diabolic debauchery, dreams and nightmares made reality!

All Hail Satan, horns held high, lightning strikes across the sky!

Cards & boards, bones & stones, the oracles point to Halloween!

Haunted caverns speak foreboding secrets in ghostly whispers forbidden

The bell resounds forevermore through forest amidst the chanting phantoms' shade

"Witchpurgisnacht" is an acronym for Walpurgisnacht. Each line begins with a letter thereunto.

Halloween 2024: A Haunted Landscape

We Satanists consider Halloween to be a holiday that celebrates the outsider, the other, those who are not like most. It is on this night that individuals who keep it to but once a year tend to explore their own quirks and inner-darknesses by wearing costumes that often reveal aspects of themselves typically hidden during the rest of their life journey. I suggest that, whatever your path of…

The impending touch of frost will ignite leaves to blaze with vivid colors. In the Southern Hemisphere denizens rejoice in the triumph of Spring’s warmth over frigid Winter. Nature…
