This one comes 26 00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:24.319 from Herbert Mullen, who was a notorious American serial killer 27 00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:29.319 and he says, quote, the devil can get into people 28 00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:32.639 and cause them to do things they wouldn't do otherwise 29 00:02:32.840 --> 00:02:36.479 in quote, and so today's episode is gonna be a 30 00:02:36.479 --> 00:02:41.159 little different. We hear names and stories thrown around for 31 00:02:41.520 --> 00:02:47.919 dramatic effect and storytelling theatrics in the conspiracy theory world, 32 00:02:48.120 --> 00:02:51.800 but do people really know what the fuck they're talking 33 00:02:51.840 --> 00:02:53.360 about most of the time? 34 00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:54.840 Not really. 35 00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:58.639 Uh So, Peache here is gonna take you on a 36 00:02:58.639 --> 00:03:02.599 little history tour today, and ready or not, here we 37 00:03:02.680 --> 00:03:06.400 fucking go. Our first stop on the tour is going 38 00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:11.560 to be New York City. Eighteen seventy five Madame Helena 39 00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:16.960 Petrova Blavatsky. I don't think I'm saying her middle name, right, 40 00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:19.319 but that's how I say it. 41 00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:20.719 So that's what we're gonna go with. 42 00:03:21.800 --> 00:03:26.840 She founded the Theosophical Society, which was an occult based 43 00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:30.840 group that survives to this day and that supplied much 44 00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:36.080 of the ideology of Hitler's Third Reich, and over the 45 00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:40.360 course of the next decade and a half, Blavotsky published 46 00:03:40.599 --> 00:03:46.199 Isis Unveiled and The Secret Doctrine, two literary works that 47 00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:50.919 have proven to be hugely fucking influential with many succeeding 48 00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:57.919 generations of modern Satanists and white supremacists. Blavatsky essentially popularized 49 00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:02.800 the notion of a spear ritual struggle between various races 50 00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:09.919 and of the inherent superiority of the Aryan race, hypothetically 51 00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:14.719 the latest in the line of spiritual evolution. And you know, 52 00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:21.480 this belief in Aryan supremacy was actually echoed by a 53 00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:28.319 philosopher who you may be familiar with, Frederick Nietzsche, who, 54 00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:33.399 by the way, during the same timeframe, argued the existence 55 00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:40.959 of an Aryan superman and advocated racial genocide. Noise right, 56 00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:44.800 what a stand up guy, Just the type you want 57 00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:47.240 to take home to family Christmas. 58 00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:48.079 Now. 59 00:04:48.279 --> 00:04:53.560 Nietzsche's work was also liberally borrowed from by the architects 60 00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:54.759 of Nazi Germany. 61 00:04:55.319 --> 00:04:57.439 He was also one. 62 00:04:57.360 --> 00:05:03.399 Of Blovotsky's most devout followers, and he was instrumental in 63 00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:08.279 introducing to Western Europe the infamous Protocols of the Elders 64 00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:13.120 of Zion. Julia, what the fuck are the Protocols of 65 00:05:13.439 --> 00:05:15.040 the Elders of Zion? 66 00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:17.199 I thought you'd never ask. 67 00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:23.240 This notorious document, which more or less accurately identified the 68 00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:28.040 existence of an ultra secret cabal bent on global domination 69 00:05:28.399 --> 00:05:34.319 and the subjugation of the world's people. Identified this game 70 00:05:34.399 --> 00:05:40.120 plan as a grand Jewish conspiracy, thereby fueling the rabid 71 00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:44.720 anti Semitism that served to stabilize the fascist states of Europe. 72 00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:50.959 Bovotsky also wrote of the importance of ancient alphabets, particularly 73 00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:55.879 what are referred to as runes. Many of these runes 74 00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:59.519 would later show up prominently in the symbolism of the 75 00:05:59.639 --> 00:06:04.519 Nazi Party, including the s lightning bolts and the swastika, 76 00:06:04.839 --> 00:06:11.240 which had been identified by Blovotsky as having supreme occult significance. Now, 77 00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:16.720 with the founding of the Theosophical Society in eighteen seventy five, 78 00:06:17.279 --> 00:06:23.319 Blovotsky was essentially being passed the torch by Alipus Levi. 79 00:06:24.399 --> 00:06:29.560 He was a French magician, author, and former priest who 80 00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:34.439 wrote a series of highly influential books from eighteen fifty 81 00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:40.360 five to eighteen sixty five. One was Dogma and Ritual 82 00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:45.079 of High Magic, another The History of Magic, and then 83 00:06:45.439 --> 00:06:49.519 The Key of the Great Mysteries. Now get this shit, okay. 84 00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:54.839 One of Levi's disciples was none other than General Albert 85 00:06:54.920 --> 00:06:59.759 Pike mentioned just so you know in National Treasure Part two. 86 00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:02.959 You guys got to go back and listen to my 87 00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:06.920 episode I did about the arc of the Covenant and 88 00:07:07.279 --> 00:07:08.160 National Treasure. 89 00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:10.120 It's pretty eye opening. 90 00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:12.680 And I fucking watched that movie all the time when 91 00:07:12.680 --> 00:07:16.480 I was a kid, and I fucking wanted to be 92 00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:18.160 Nicholas Cage in that movie. 93 00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:19.279 Like it. 94 00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:22.600 You know, of course it's Disney. But in the second 95 00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:27.279 one it focuses a lot on Albert Pike, and he 96 00:07:27.560 --> 00:07:32.759 was one of Levi's most notable disciples, and he was 97 00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:37.040 chief of Intelligence for the Confederate Army and the highest 98 00:07:37.160 --> 00:07:42.480 ranking Freemason in North America. Okay, And in eighteen sixty seven, 99 00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:48.959 Pike incorporated Levi's ideas into the constitution that he drafted 100 00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:54.199 for an overtly racist, occult based secret society that he 101 00:07:54.639 --> 00:07:59.759 and an alliance of the Confederate generals and intelligence operatives 102 00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:05.600 created following the American Civil War, which just so happened 103 00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:11.000 to be the klu Klux Klan. BETCHA didn't learn that 104 00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:15.879 in history class, kids, and fucking Levi's ideas would later 105 00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:20.639 find favor with the occult practitioners who engineered the rise 106 00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:25.360 of Nazi Germany. And with that, it's time to move 107 00:08:25.399 --> 00:08:26.920 on to our next. 108 00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:27.600 Stop on the tour. 109 00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:34.879 Eighteen seventy five, the year that is certain Edward Alexander 110 00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:41.639 Crowley was born Edward, who you may know better as 111 00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:46.039 Alistair or maybe by the grandiose label that he chose 112 00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:48.279 for himself, the great. 113 00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:49.159 B sixty sixty six. 114 00:08:50.600 --> 00:08:55.440 Really Edward really the ego on these people, I swear. Anyways, 115 00:08:56.240 --> 00:09:01.200 this bitch tit was without question the most most influential 116 00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:06.000 occultist of the twentieth century. He was also an asset 117 00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:10.759 of British military intelligence, just as Albert Pike was an 118 00:09:10.759 --> 00:09:16.519 American intelligence operative, and just as Carl Kellner, Franz Hartmann 119 00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:23.679 and Theodore Russ had close ties to German intelligence entities. Actually, Carl, 120 00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:29.759 Franz and Theodore were the primary architects of the Ordo Temple. 121 00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:36.039 Orientis Oh fucking t Oh, which, if you're unfamiliar, is 122 00:09:36.159 --> 00:09:40.519 a secret society formed in Germany around eighteen ninety five 123 00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:44.559 that claims to be in a direct line of dissent 124 00:09:45.240 --> 00:09:49.799 from the Knights Templar. Again, go back and listen to 125 00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:53.799 my Ark of the Covenant episode four more details. Anyways, 126 00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:57.440 Knights Templar, by the way, is believed to be the 127 00:09:57.639 --> 00:10:03.000 granddaddy of all occult bay secret Masonic societies, and it 128 00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:07.240 is known that the OTO was directly linked to Blovotsky 129 00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:13.840 through Hartman, a theosophist and close associate of Madam Blovotsky. 130 00:10:14.399 --> 00:10:17.919 Something else you may be familiar with. The Hermetic Order 131 00:10:17.960 --> 00:10:24.240 of the Golden down OGD was founded by theosophist William 132 00:10:24.279 --> 00:10:30.159 Wescott in eighteen eighty eight and was closely allied with 133 00:10:30.279 --> 00:10:35.960 Blovotsky's group as well. And this just so happens to 134 00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:39.960 start forming right around the time the Jack the Ripper 135 00:10:40.080 --> 00:10:44.320 murders were running rampant. But so it was the Order 136 00:10:44.360 --> 00:10:49.399 of the Golden Dawn, which he joined in eighteen ninety eight, 137 00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:55.240 that Aleister Crowley first attained his occult celebrity status. He 138 00:10:55.279 --> 00:10:59.120 created his own acule order, which he named the Astrum 139 00:10:59.320 --> 00:11:05.399 Argentum Silver Star, in nineteen o seven, and began publishing 140 00:11:05.519 --> 00:11:10.360 its newsletter, The Equinox a couple years later. In nineteen twelve, 141 00:11:10.480 --> 00:11:14.960 he forged a close association with Theodore, who introduced him 142 00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:18.919 to the OTO and appointed Crowley to head the Order's 143 00:11:19.200 --> 00:11:24.759 UK chapter. That same year, Crowley wrote an OTO manifesto 144 00:11:25.039 --> 00:11:27.519 that included a list of names he claimed to be 145 00:11:27.799 --> 00:11:32.759 past grand Masters of the Lodge. On that list were 146 00:11:32.879 --> 00:11:38.960 composer Richard Wagner, an associate of his, Frederick Nietzsche, whose 147 00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:46.320 published works included The Antichrist Noie, and in nineteen nineteen, 148 00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:51.480 Crowley declared that every non member of the occult order 149 00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:56.600 should be treated as a fucking savage, and around that 150 00:11:56.799 --> 00:12:00.720 same time he became known for his published works of 151 00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:06.120 pro German and pro Nazi propaganda, which he continued to 152 00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:11.559 produce through both World Wars and while living in the US, 153 00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:17.159 Crowley wrote for two pro fascist rags, The Fatherland and 154 00:12:17.320 --> 00:12:23.799 The Internationalists, and around nineteen twenty Crowley moved to Sicily, 155 00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:29.120 where he founded the Thealima Abbey, a site that quickly 156 00:12:29.159 --> 00:12:34.720 became known for conducting Satanic rites, complete with animal sacrifices, 157 00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:40.240 best reality and blood drinking. The abbey also gained notoriety 158 00:12:40.399 --> 00:12:44.879 for being fraught with death and disease. Crowley's own infant 159 00:12:44.960 --> 00:12:49.440 child died there, as did others, and yes, this is 160 00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:52.240 fucking real and documented. 161 00:12:53.279 --> 00:12:53.759 And dude. 162 00:12:54.159 --> 00:12:58.799 At this time Crowley was openly accused of infanticide and 163 00:12:58.960 --> 00:13:03.240 he never denied the fucking charges. So stop for those 164 00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:06.480 who stand by the well, how do we know for sure? 165 00:13:06.799 --> 00:13:10.240 Fucking are you sure he really ever did that? Or 166 00:13:10.360 --> 00:13:12.279 was it just sensationalized or whatever? 167 00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:13.840 Fucking take a look. 168 00:13:14.399 --> 00:13:19.360 It's in a book and fan to side Rainbow. He 169 00:13:19.480 --> 00:13:22.240 was definitely accused of this shit, and kids were going 170 00:13:22.320 --> 00:13:25.039 missing and turning up dead left and fucking right now. 171 00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:30.080 Crowley openly and rather flamboyantly reveled in his depravity, Dude, 172 00:13:30.679 --> 00:13:35.320 in Diary of a Dope Fiend. Crowley was a lifelong 173 00:13:35.360 --> 00:13:37.240 abuser of drugs of all types. 174 00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:39.080 By the way he wrote. 175 00:13:38.799 --> 00:13:42.279 That quote, I have driven myself to delight and dirty 176 00:13:42.360 --> 00:13:47.720 and disgusting debauches, and to devour human excrement and human 177 00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:57.080 flesh yummy, and like literally, those close to Crowley had 178 00:13:57.120 --> 00:14:02.960 the rather disturbing habit of dropping fucking dead under unusual circumstances. 179 00:14:03.480 --> 00:14:08.519 A study of Crowley's life and that of his disciples 180 00:14:08.840 --> 00:14:13.840 shows that many of them ended up mad, destitute, or 181 00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:19.120 prematurely dead, and if you were real lucky, occasionally all three. 182 00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:20.360 Now. 183 00:14:20.519 --> 00:14:25.919 From early in his life, Crowley developed an unsavory reputation 184 00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:30.919 for killing his mountain climbing partners, not even kidding, dude. 185 00:14:31.240 --> 00:14:33.960 Most of his friends who decided to go on these 186 00:14:34.039 --> 00:14:37.919 little expeditions never made it home. They got up there 187 00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:41.600 and he put it into fucking sport mode on their asses, 188 00:14:42.159 --> 00:14:47.120 and they never fucking came home. Meanwhile, back in England, 189 00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:53.440 he was widely rumored to routinely sacrifice children and dump 190 00:14:53.440 --> 00:14:57.960 their mutilated remains in the Thames River. But it doesn't 191 00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:00.720 stop there. I mean, there are plenty of examples of 192 00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:05.159 this bullshit. This one time Crowley and an assistant of 193 00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:07.759 his entered a locker room to perform some kind of 194 00:15:07.840 --> 00:15:10.960 a ritual and guess what, the assistant didn't fucking make 195 00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:16.159 it out alive. And immediately following that escapade, Crowley reportedly 196 00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:19.440 spent four months in a mental hospital. But you know, 197 00:15:20.240 --> 00:15:24.039 Crowley's offspring did not fare much better than his mountain 198 00:15:24.120 --> 00:15:27.960 climbing partners did. Turns out that he went sport mode 199 00:15:28.039 --> 00:15:32.200 on his own flesh and blood. In addition to the 200 00:15:32.320 --> 00:15:37.120 children that died at the Thelima Abbey, a young daughter 201 00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:40.879 of his died in nineteen oh six, and some reports 202 00:15:40.919 --> 00:15:45.159 claimed that a son died as well in totally separate incidents. 203 00:15:45.759 --> 00:15:50.399 And the Great Beast himself died on December first, nineteen 204 00:15:50.879 --> 00:15:56.559 forty seven. He was at that time the worldwide head 205 00:15:56.720 --> 00:16:01.919 of the Orto Temple Orientis. After all, he had been 206 00:16:02.039 --> 00:16:06.519 named by Theodore himself as his successor in nineteen twenty 207 00:16:06.600 --> 00:16:11.679 three and confirmed in nineteen twenty four, though some reports 208 00:16:11.679 --> 00:16:15.960 hold that Crowley appointed himself to the leadership position as 209 00:16:16.039 --> 00:16:20.840 early as nineteen twenty two. But with his passing, a 210 00:16:20.960 --> 00:16:25.960 new generation of occult superstars stood ready to take the torch. 211 00:16:26.679 --> 00:16:29.720 Each of them devouted to spreading the word of the 212 00:16:29.759 --> 00:16:34.480 Great Beast. Do what thou wilt shall be the whole 213 00:16:34.679 --> 00:16:40.639 of the law. And there you have it, folks, a 214 00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:45.519 little backstory for you on some of the first serial killers. 215 00:16:46.240 --> 00:16:48.080 But it doesn't stop. 216 00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:54.200 There, because one of these bitch Tit disciples was Gerald Gardner, 217 00:16:54.679 --> 00:16:59.559 who replaced Crowley as the UK's most infamous occultist. 218 00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:01.960 But have you ever heard of it? 219 00:17:03.279 --> 00:17:06.799 If you have, I'd be surprised because no one ever 220 00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:09.000 gives anyone the full story with this shit. 221 00:17:09.119 --> 00:17:11.799 But fear not, Jerald. 222 00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:15.400 Bitch Tits Gardner is our next stop on the tour. 223 00:17:16.960 --> 00:17:22.559 Gardner was born in eighteen eighty four into an affluent 224 00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:26.400 family in the UK, and he served for a time 225 00:17:26.559 --> 00:17:30.920 as a British Customs agent. He was also head of 226 00:17:31.039 --> 00:17:34.720 his own Oto lodge and a close associate of Crowley. 227 00:17:35.599 --> 00:17:40.720 Before his death, Crowley helped Gardner craft new rituals for 228 00:17:40.839 --> 00:17:45.640 what would become known as WIGA you know, the instagram 229 00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:51.039 cool religion to practice. Anyways, in nineteen forty nine, two 230 00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:56.240 years after his mentor's death, Gardner wrote High Magic's Aid, 231 00:17:57.279 --> 00:18:01.839 and he followed that with Witchcraft Today in nineteen fifty four, 232 00:18:02.039 --> 00:18:06.440 and The Meaning of Witchcraft in nineteen fifty nine, and 233 00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:10.119 before you know it, the movement was off and running. 234 00:18:10.720 --> 00:18:11.559 And get this. 235 00:18:12.079 --> 00:18:17.960 Ever heard of Sir Lawrence Gardner. Well, He's Gerald's son, 236 00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:20.880 and he wrote a couple of books that attempt to 237 00:18:21.079 --> 00:18:24.279 justify genocide and arian supremacy. 238 00:18:24.519 --> 00:18:25.599 Hey, I get it. 239 00:18:26.079 --> 00:18:29.400 You watched the Blair Witch Project one time at summer camp. 240 00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:31.359 And now you think you know a thing or two 241 00:18:31.440 --> 00:18:37.039 about WICCA. You don't, Okay, you fucking don't, all right 242 00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:42.559 that the origins of this shit go so far into 243 00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:47.559 the sinister land. It's crazy, but so. Lawrence Gardner also 244 00:18:47.599 --> 00:18:53.839 serves as the presidential attache. Oh look, it's the funny 245 00:18:53.839 --> 00:18:59.119 word from the John Benet episode. Anyways, the presidential attache 246 00:18:59.160 --> 00:19:04.039 to the European Council of Princes, an entity that has 247 00:19:04.240 --> 00:19:11.680 admitted to receiving funding from the Central Intelligence Agency Noise Now. 248 00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:16.880 One of Gardner's early senior recruits was Alexander Saunders, who 249 00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:21.319 was raised by a grandmother who was well versed in 250 00:19:21.480 --> 00:19:27.400 the Black arts, and as a child, Saunders was shipped 251 00:19:27.440 --> 00:19:30.960 off for a time to live with and be trained 252 00:19:31.240 --> 00:19:37.720 by Crowley himself. By the late nineteen sixties, Saunders was 253 00:19:37.839 --> 00:19:42.279 a national celebrity in the UK, having anointed himself the 254 00:19:42.440 --> 00:19:46.599 King of the Witches again the ego on these people, 255 00:19:46.759 --> 00:19:51.279 I swear, dude and get this. During the filming of 256 00:19:51.680 --> 00:19:55.680 I of the Devil in nineteen sixty seven, Saunders claimed 257 00:19:55.680 --> 00:20:01.440 to have initiated the film star Manson victim Sharon Tate 258 00:20:02.160 --> 00:20:09.400 into witchcraft. His followers are said to practice Alexandrian witchcraft, 259 00:20:10.039 --> 00:20:17.680 while followers of Gardener's practice Guardarian witchcraft. Either way, both 260 00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:22.240 owe much to the teachings of Alistair Crowley and a 261 00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:27.799 couple thousand Harry Pitted Instagram chicks. Now, for our next 262 00:20:27.799 --> 00:20:30.759 stop on the tour, We're going to pay a visit 263 00:20:30.799 --> 00:20:34.200 to Saunder's counterpart in America. 264 00:20:34.839 --> 00:20:35.640 Who may that be? 265 00:20:37.359 --> 00:20:44.480 Well, it was the equally flamboyant Anton Levy, who achieved 266 00:20:44.759 --> 00:20:49.240 minor celebrity status in the nineteen sixties and nineteen seventies 267 00:20:49.319 --> 00:20:54.039 as the clown Prince of Satanism and the fucking phil 268 00:20:54.079 --> 00:20:58.160 Don Hugh and Johnny Carson shows really fucking helped to 269 00:20:58.279 --> 00:21:03.000 steer recruits Levey's way, but they claimed to have a 270 00:21:03.119 --> 00:21:07.720 lengthy and very colorful resume. He said he had worked 271 00:21:07.759 --> 00:21:12.319 as a lion tamer with the Clyde Beatty Circus, and 272 00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:16.440 as a fortune teller and an astrologer in a carnival. 273 00:21:17.119 --> 00:21:20.799 He had worked with his uncle in Las Vegas, who 274 00:21:21.119 --> 00:21:26.359 was a close associate of Bugsy Siegel and Meyer Lanski, 275 00:21:26.839 --> 00:21:30.680 both of whom he says he had met. He had 276 00:21:30.720 --> 00:21:35.039 studied criminology and worked as a crime scene photographer for 277 00:21:35.240 --> 00:21:39.039 the San Francisco Police Department, who consulted with him on 278 00:21:39.720 --> 00:21:46.160 nut cases. Quote unquote, he had been a professional hypnotist, organist, 279 00:21:46.519 --> 00:21:52.200 and quote unquote ghostbuster, and last, but certainly not least, 280 00:21:52.440 --> 00:21:55.880 he had been a lover and seducer of a young 281 00:21:56.240 --> 00:22:02.759 but then unknown Marilyn MONI fucking row and I'm coming 282 00:22:02.839 --> 00:22:03.759 in with the fire. 283 00:22:04.079 --> 00:22:05.119 Somebody stop me. 284 00:22:05.359 --> 00:22:10.119 It's too hot for you literally in the Satanic Bible, 285 00:22:11.240 --> 00:22:16.240 Anton LaVey has an entire dedication to not only Marilyn Monroe, 286 00:22:17.319 --> 00:22:20.759 but to Tuesday Weld, who is another occult witch who 287 00:22:20.799 --> 00:22:25.240 worked with Elvis Presley Go Figure and has some of 288 00:22:25.279 --> 00:22:27.759 the deepest occult ties I've ever heard. I do have 289 00:22:27.799 --> 00:22:30.200 an episode about Tuesday Weld if you want to go 290 00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:30.960 check that out. 291 00:22:31.279 --> 00:22:32.480 But back to the story. 292 00:22:33.759 --> 00:22:38.880 Following Levey's death, his daughter claimed that his entire life 293 00:22:38.960 --> 00:22:41.599 story was a fabrication, which, I mean, let's be real, 294 00:22:41.839 --> 00:22:42.799 would hardly be a. 295 00:22:42.759 --> 00:22:46.039 Surprise if LaVey was as. 296 00:22:45.839 --> 00:22:51.160 He appears to have been, a fucking intelligence operative. But so, 297 00:22:51.400 --> 00:22:57.079 together with Crowley inspired filmmaker Kenneth Anger, LaVey organized the 298 00:22:57.200 --> 00:23:01.680 Magic Circle in San Francisco in the midnightnineteen sixties, and 299 00:23:01.799 --> 00:23:05.559 by nineteen sixty six the group had evolved into the 300 00:23:05.640 --> 00:23:10.640 Church of Satan. From its inception, LaVey's group included in 301 00:23:10.640 --> 00:23:16.519 an ordinate number of police, military, and intelligence personnel. One 302 00:23:16.559 --> 00:23:21.119 of these was wait for it, Wait for It, Lieutenant 303 00:23:21.200 --> 00:23:27.400 Colonel Michael Lechino Dand, who left LaVey's Circle in nineteen 304 00:23:27.440 --> 00:23:32.480 seventy five to found his own overtly Satanic order the 305 00:23:32.559 --> 00:23:37.799 Temple of Set before his departure, though Aquino had been 306 00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:41.480 the highest ranking member of the Church of Satan other 307 00:23:41.640 --> 00:23:45.599 than Levey. He had joined the Church of Satan upon 308 00:23:45.759 --> 00:23:50.039 his return from Vietnam, where he served as a psychological 309 00:23:50.119 --> 00:23:54.440 warfare specialist, which very likely means that he served as 310 00:23:54.519 --> 00:23:58.640 part of the Phoenix program and still could possibly be 311 00:23:58.799 --> 00:24:03.160 the Zodiac Killer. Aquino returned from Vietnam with a Bronze Star, 312 00:24:03.799 --> 00:24:08.640 an Air Medal, and an Army Commendation Medal, and the 313 00:24:08.759 --> 00:24:13.440 colonel who began reporting directly to Joint Chiefs of Staff 314 00:24:13.519 --> 00:24:17.440 in nineteen eighty one is not the only intelligence asset 315 00:24:17.480 --> 00:24:21.279 in the Temple of Set. According to a police intelligence 316 00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:24.920 report in nineteen ninety, at least two of Akino's top 317 00:24:24.960 --> 00:24:29.880 lieutenants at that time were intelligence operatives as well. Although 318 00:24:29.920 --> 00:24:36.960 Aquino denies it, his group embraced an unbashedly authoritarian ideology. 319 00:24:37.079 --> 00:24:40.240 The reading list that he provided to his followers included 320 00:24:40.319 --> 00:24:44.640 a number of pro Nazi books, including Adolf Hitler's Mind Comps. 321 00:24:45.880 --> 00:24:50.440 Aquino also advised members to look therein quote for the 322 00:24:50.839 --> 00:24:56.000 discussions concerning the selection of leaders, control of the masses, 323 00:24:56.480 --> 00:25:01.480 and the justification for human social or gaanization in quote. 324 00:25:02.119 --> 00:25:05.920 And just so you know, Akino's admiration for the Third 325 00:25:05.960 --> 00:25:11.720 Reich was also illustrated by his visit to Wolvesburg Castle, 326 00:25:11.759 --> 00:25:16.200 which I'm probably not pronouncing correctly, but anyways, Wolfsburg Castle, 327 00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:21.759 which after nineteen thirty four it was used by the 328 00:25:22.039 --> 00:25:26.839 SS under Heinrich Himmler and was to be expanded into 329 00:25:26.839 --> 00:25:30.359 a complex which would serve as the Centrals cult site, 330 00:25:31.559 --> 00:25:37.079 was one of Akino's most favorite places. So why did 331 00:25:37.160 --> 00:25:39.319 he pay a visit to the castle? Well, it was 332 00:25:39.400 --> 00:25:43.680 to perform a Satanic working ritual. No big deal, nothing 333 00:25:43.720 --> 00:25:47.920 to see here, folks. So during the reign of the 334 00:25:48.000 --> 00:25:53.359 Nazi Party, this castle had been lavishly restored by Heinrich 335 00:25:53.440 --> 00:25:57.839 Kimmler to serve as the headquarters of the Black Order 336 00:25:57.960 --> 00:26:02.400 of the SS, and as such it is considered sacred 337 00:26:02.480 --> 00:26:07.240 ground by some modern Satanists. So no surprise there why 338 00:26:07.319 --> 00:26:10.720 Aquino has such a heart on for it. But now, 339 00:26:10.720 --> 00:26:14.839 in a strange turn of events, Aquino has also been 340 00:26:14.920 --> 00:26:17.559 known to claim that he is the son of an 341 00:26:17.720 --> 00:26:22.200 s S officer. But here's the twist. At other times 342 00:26:22.519 --> 00:26:27.400 he has claimed that he is a homunculous magically created 343 00:26:27.440 --> 00:26:31.880 by the Babylon Working ritual performed by Jack Parsons and 344 00:26:32.200 --> 00:26:36.720 l Ron Hubbard. He literally has said that I personally 345 00:26:36.759 --> 00:26:41.799 believe that he's got a huge ego, but he says 346 00:26:42.400 --> 00:26:44.440 that's where he came from. 347 00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:45.279 Now. 348 00:26:46.160 --> 00:26:50.319 After the Temple was incorporated in the state of California 349 00:26:50.839 --> 00:26:56.720 as a nonprofit church, Aquino's group quickly received both state 350 00:26:56.880 --> 00:27:01.880 and federal recognition, as well as TECH exempt status. The 351 00:27:01.960 --> 00:27:06.079 Temple members like to boast of being the only Satanic 352 00:27:06.119 --> 00:27:11.119 church to hold such credentials, and there have been claims 353 00:27:11.160 --> 00:27:16.319 made that, like a Keno, Levy also had a fondness for. 354 00:27:16.400 --> 00:27:17.279 The Third Reich. 355 00:27:17.799 --> 00:27:22.039 It's actually said that LaVey secretly forged an alliance with 356 00:27:22.279 --> 00:27:27.559 the National Renaissance Party, an overtly racist, neo Nazi organization, which, 357 00:27:27.880 --> 00:27:31.759 let's be real, these claims are not difficult to believe, 358 00:27:31.880 --> 00:27:36.480 given that LaVey's writings reveal an ideology that can best 359 00:27:36.559 --> 00:27:42.359 be characterized as fascism cloaked in quasi religious dogma. 360 00:27:42.400 --> 00:27:43.640 His best known. 361 00:27:43.480 --> 00:27:48.160 Work, The Satanic Bible, contains a dedication to Marilyn Monroe, 362 00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:51.720 as I said before, but also to Karl hau Chauffeur, 363 00:27:52.119 --> 00:27:56.279 one of the occult architects of the Third Reich. LaVey's 364 00:27:56.319 --> 00:28:01.759 prolific writings are filled with pro police and pro authoritarian propaganda, 365 00:28:02.680 --> 00:28:08.720 unbashed elitism, and calls for the destruction of the week 366 00:28:08.920 --> 00:28:12.880 by the strong, calls that echo Crowley's writings in the 367 00:28:12.920 --> 00:28:16.799 Book of the Law. Quote, we have nothing with the 368 00:28:16.960 --> 00:28:22.079 outcast and unfit. Let them die in their misery, for 369 00:28:22.440 --> 00:28:29.359 they feel not Compassion is the vice of kings. Stamp 370 00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:33.440 down the wretched and the weak. This is the law 371 00:28:33.599 --> 00:28:34.319 of the Strong. 372 00:28:34.960 --> 00:28:35.480 End quote. 373 00:28:36.519 --> 00:28:40.440 Just some light reading it sounds like, but so. The 374 00:28:40.599 --> 00:28:45.680 Church of Satan's promotional literature has proudly proclaimed the Church 375 00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:50.799 of Satan to be quote an eclectic body that traces 376 00:28:50.839 --> 00:28:56.079 its origins to many sources, including the ritual magic of 377 00:28:56.279 --> 00:29:00.440 Aleister Crowley and the Black Order of Germany in the 378 00:29:00.519 --> 00:29:06.759 nineteen twenties and nineteen thirties. In quote, readers are reminded 379 00:29:06.960 --> 00:29:10.920 that the Black Order was the elite branch of the 380 00:29:11.160 --> 00:29:16.880 SS that was primarily responsible for engineering countless crimes against 381 00:29:16.960 --> 00:29:18.480 humanity during. 382 00:29:18.359 --> 00:29:20.640 The reign of the Reich. 383 00:29:21.359 --> 00:29:26.079 In The Black Flame, an official publication of the Church 384 00:29:26.160 --> 00:29:31.200 of Satan, Levey once wrote, quote, if a neo fascist 385 00:29:31.279 --> 00:29:35.160 look or outlook makes for men who look like men 386 00:29:35.279 --> 00:29:36.839 and women who look like women. 387 00:29:37.240 --> 00:29:39.480 I'm all for it. In quote. 388 00:29:40.200 --> 00:29:45.480 He also offered the following observation, quote, there is nothing 389 00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:50.160 inherently wrong with fascism given the nature and needs of 390 00:29:50.200 --> 00:29:55.200 the average citizen. Now, it's not so much a case 391 00:29:55.400 --> 00:30:02.119 of avoiding fascism, but of replacing a screw up, disjointed, fragmented, 392 00:30:02.400 --> 00:30:06.519 and stupefying kind of fascism with one that is more 393 00:30:06.599 --> 00:30:11.880 sensible and truly progressive. In quote, and this dude named 394 00:30:11.960 --> 00:30:16.559 Peter Gilmore, a ranking member of the Church of Satan, 395 00:30:16.960 --> 00:30:22.599 has described modern Satanism as practiced by Levy's group as 396 00:30:22.799 --> 00:30:28.480 quote a brutal religion of elitism and social Darwinism that 397 00:30:28.559 --> 00:30:34.359 seeks to reestablish the reign of the able over the 398 00:30:34.519 --> 00:30:41.799 idiotic of swift justice over injustice, and for a wholesale 399 00:30:41.920 --> 00:30:49.000 rejection of egalitarianism as a myth that has crippled the 400 00:30:49.039 --> 00:30:52.759 advancement of the human species for the last two thousand 401 00:30:52.920 --> 00:30:58.839
