We are not going to talk to you about cities marked by stories of satanism and witchcraft, such as Salem , in the United States, or Loudum , in France, where there were cases of demonic possessions, accusations of witchcraft and several condemned to death, but of apparently more normal cities where sects and groups associated with satanism make daily life and even have weight in local politics.
This is how you We present 6 cities from different parts of the world that have been linked to Satanism.
6 cities related to Satanism
1.Toledo, Ohio
A native of This city, Herbert Sloane , founded a satanic cult in 1948, the sect of Our Lady of Endor Coven , which operated for almost four decades, until her death in 1980, in the back of his barbershop.
Sloane was a true believer in the devil, and his sect was declared open and publicly satanic.
2.Turin, Italy
This industrial city of northern Italy is related in the religious aspect with the famous and polemic "Velo de Turin", relic where the face of Christ would be stamped; but it has also been linked to cults and rites dedicated to the Adversary of God .With more than 70,000 followers, Turin is considered the second city with more satanic sects in the world, being second only to London.
According to believers, the city is full of architectural references to Satanism, both in secular buildings and in churches.
3.San Francisco, California
Considered As the capital of the hippie movement and the movement for the claim of homosexual rights, it has also played a leading role in promoting Satanism in the United States.
In San Francisco there is the sect" Church of Satan by Anton Szandor LaVey, a dj and photographer of crime scenes that would become the 60s in the "Black Pope" .In 1968 LaVey was a consultant during the filming of the film The Baby of Rosemary , of Roman Polansky, and his church came to have such prominent members as artist Sammy Davis Junior.
4.Victoria, British Columbia (Canada)
In the 80's of the last century, a book published by a woman in collaboration with her psychiatrist, unleashed strong suspicions about the existence of a satanic sect in this city.In the book Michelle Remembers , by Michelle Smith and Dr.Lawrence Pazder, told how she and other girls were abused and subjected to demonic rituals in which many respectable adults from the city participated, including Michelle's mother.
Even that this story apparently developed thirty years before the book was published, doubts remained about the true religious orientation of many citizens of Victoria.
5.Bolsover, England
En an old mining city of England, founded by a gentleman of William the Conqueror in the eleventh century, with about 75,000 inhabitants and that in the 2011 census revealed the presence of 17 Satanists , thus becoming the second city of England, after Bristol, where 34 were counted, with more Satanists.
However, a spokeswoman for the Church of Satan founded by LaVey in 1966, Serena Malone, ruled out the existence of members of his church in this city."We think it is a mockery," he said.
7.Pergamo, Turkey
The ruins of this ancient city gri ega are located near the Turkish city of Bergama, and its name has strong connotations for several evangelistic churches, because in the Book of Revelation (2:12) mentions that in the temple of this city is the "throne of Satan".
It is possible that this qualifier had to do with the fact that in this city there was a An important temple dedicated to Zeus, whose remains were excavated in the 19th century and largely sent to Germany, and that Christians had identified the cult of the Greek gods as satanic cults.
As you see, not all the cities are as Christian as they seem, and Satanism is not just a cinematographic genre, and perhaps it is more ingrained than we think, even if it is only a cultural vestige of pagan religions.What do you think about it?
We recommend reading the mysterious witch buried in Tuscany.
