Reverend Count MoriVond reads from THE SATANIC SCRIPTURES

“Natural Hierarchy: As Above, So Below” Are there “Witches” and “Warlocks” in the Church? What happens when one becomes a Registered Member and how does one elevate in grade? What does the Priesthood do? In this essay, the High Priest opens up in detail on the hierarchical structure of the Church of Satan. Explaining the history of the degree system; what titles/degrees there are and what offices these assume. Masterful Slaves Dominance? Submission? The Satanic perspective on leaders and followers, “tops” and “bottoms” and sadists and masochists…Are Satanists—”sadists?” Do Satanists look down upon or favor “submissive” types? Can one be […]

Behemoth Dark Star Gong

The Year of the Gong

In celebration of my 63rd birth anniversary today, I’m posting a new article titled: “Bang Your Gong! A Guide to the Use of Gongs in Satanic Ritual.” This just past Walpurgisnacht—the 55th anniversary of the founding of the Church of Satan and my 20th anniversary of becoming its High Priest—members and dear friends conspired to surprise me with an intimate gathering during which I was presented with a magnificent tam-tam, 40 inches in diameter. A sturdy and elegant stand as well as a collection of mallets accompanied this powerful instrument, which is a sheer delight to play. In my college years […]

The Seventh Satanic Statement - Das Tierdrama Ritual

The Rite Stuff: Anton LaVey’s The Satanic Rituals

To celebrate this Walpurgisnacht, I am publishing the introduction I wrote for THE SATANIC RITUALS. A South American publisher of exquisite volumes is releasing authorized versions in Spanish of both THE SATANIC BIBLE and THE SATANIC RITUALS. Since it had none, I was asked to write an introduction to the latter book, and I completed it on January 13 in 2020. The Spanish translation of this essay—“The Rite Stuff”—will appear in the new release, which may only be for sale in specific South American nations. More information will be forthcoming when these books emerge. For now, you can read my […]

Wicked Walpurgisnacht

Wicked Walpurgisnacht!

This year’s holiday marks the 55th anniversary of the founding of the Church of Satan, and my 20th anniversary of becoming its High Priest. It has been my honor to guide this organization into the 21st Century, maintaining the unadulterated legacy of our founder, Anton Szandor LaVey, in a trajectory that both expands and enhances his vision for the world’s first carnal religion. My focus emphasizes the radical individualism that is the heart of Satanism. My method is to both cultivate and inspire our exemplary members to show the validity of our perspective via their own unique achievements. Our members […]
