The Little Book of Satanism

Cover of the book The Little Book of Satanism

The Little Book of Satanism details the “mark of the beast” in cultural and historic movements over the centuries, which have informed the sincerely held beliefs and practices of Satanists today.

This book explains how Satanism developed in the context of social history while debunking lurid conspiracy theories about serial killers and ritual abuse. Interestingly, it detours elegantly into witchcraft and other adjacent movements and conspiracies. It includes a primer on various Satanic practices such as social activism, rituals, and holidays. In the spirit of the fallen angel Lucifer, be inspired by Satanism’s affirmative values that courageously oppose arbitrary authority and champion nonconformity.

Written clearly and without embellishment, with lots of interesting points and details woven into a tight narrative.

Selected Excerpt:

Crowley’s mother nicknamed him “The Beast” due to his misbehaving ways. As a young man, he squandered his inheritance on mountaineering and far-flung travels, and he experimented with occultism with several different societies. He visited Cairo with his wife in 1904, and she told him she dreamed of an artifact with a falcon-headed god. The next day, they went to the Egyptian Museum and found this very artifact, the Stele of Revealing—cataloged as exhibit 666!
