Dungeons, Dragons, And Satan Worship

Hi friends, happy Thursday!
Welcome to the Dark History podcast. What scares parents more than anything else? It’s the Devil, of course. And it wasn’t too long ago where this fear turned into a nationwide craze. In today’s episode we’ll talk about how Satan invaded our board games, music, even our classrooms! And if you think that everyone just sat down, calmly talked it over like adults, and everything was fine…oh buddy you’d be wrong. It was a total dumpster fire, from hell!
I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History.

Hey Friends! Speaking of Satan... if you get a comment from a channel that looks like mine saying you've won a giveaway/prize and to send your information or click a link, IT IS NOT FROM ME! The devil works hard, but these spammers work harder. We're trying to figure this out. Thanks everyone.

Apparently he was also drawing comics. Who knew Peanuts was the work of the Devil. (Yup, I knew people who believe comics of all types were the work of Satan.)

[@DeeDeeblonde]

So I found Bailey in Spotify and started listening there, had no idea about her KZbin or whatever and I thought for the longest time Joan is her parrot that she dresses up in tiny parrot costumes and Paul was her recording guy or some coworker she might have for the sound. The realization they are just décor pieces finished me! 💀

[@AntiqueMilk]

Fun fact about Ozzy and the bat: it wasn't one that was thrown on the stage, it was a live bat that got confused by all the noise and ended up on the floor infront of him. Now his fans had the tendency to throw rubber bats and snakes and he'd by the heads off as part of his act so he didnt think it was weird until he realised it was, in fact, a live bat he'd just bit the head off of. Dude had to get rabies shots.

I just want to give Bailey props to pronunciating her colleague Tafadzwa Nemarundwe's name so well. Not because the name is difficult to pronounce, but rather because Bailey struggles with some names and words, and we all struggle with words and names that are unfamiliar to us. So well done Bailey! 🥳

[@archivist17]

I think she stumbled over it once, early on, and obviously resolved to get it right thereafter.

[@DM-Raven]

As someone who grew up in the 80s, I am very familiar with the D&D satanic panic. I actually got my books confiscated when I tried to bring them to a place with a bunch of religious kids. These days I run D&D games for a living and D&D is known and loved in our greater culture. But this dark history episode gave me a chuckle and some dark nostalgia!

[@HIMpotter]

How do you run D&D games for a living? Online?

[@DM-Raven]

@@HIMpotter Yes, I run games over the internet for groups of people.

[@HIMpotter]

@DM Raven oh post the info, my husband plays D&D online too. How much do you charge?

[@Sweetinfernalcreature]

I grew up in a really small town and they were super religious but my family wasn’t so I was immediately outcasted. It didn’t help anything when my 6 year old audacity popped off and I told my whole class that we were “devil worshippers”. It also didn’t help when they called my metalhead grandmother at home and she laughed and hung up.

[@kristinamillion9166]

Ctfu! My grandmother was very much a Christian. A true Christian who lo Ed everyone regardless. She told me religion is a journey and it's up to each individual to find their own beliefs. I had told everyone I was Wiccan as a kid. I wasn't at that point, but the school did the same thing. My grandmother told them off. She also took her shortv80 year old attitude up the high-school and smacked the vice principal cys she had the nerve to tell my grandma she wasn't my legal guardian. She was absolutely the spice grandma. Lol.

[@LexiJ0405]

Yes. Pop 710, a dozen churches, and I grew up in The Atheist Household. Talk about WILD assumptions.

[@jessid2011]

@Rubymoonsister your family sounds fun! 😂

[@michelleaguirre6412]

My grandmother favourite memory of the end of second world war was of a priest dinamiting a church.

[@KristenKramer136k]

I wonder if we’re not distantly related. My family pops off like that too. We don’t hold back. 😂

[@delanasowell5477]

Ozzy thought it was fake. He was actually very disgusted when he realized it wasn’t fake.

[@LINKINPARK262]

People threw rubber bats onto the stage all the time so it's not like he would've expected it to be a dead bat and not a rubber bat, you know?

[@leahmaclachlan2685]

But then he intentionally bit off dove heads in an interview afterwards 😬

[@vicki5139]

Yep, and he had to have rabies shots afterward. (Several painful shots, straight to the stomach - ouch!)

Satanic Panic and the crime story of Damien Echols was inspiration for Eddie in Stranger Things. Very similar to John's story, as he was a D&D player, who liked metal music. He was labeled a satanist by media and was sentenced to death, but later found innocent. Sad story.

[@lizjarvis689]

They actually never said the west Memphis 3 were actually innocent. I believe they still made them plead guilty but just changed the sentence bc the govt wasn’t willing to admit they were wrong. The other 2 didn’t want to take the deal n wanted to keep fighting, but since Damien was on death row, they went ahead n took the deal, so he wouldn’t get executed, even tho they would still be considered guilty and have a record

[@taintedqueen2087]

There is a cookbook “Hero’s feast” with recipes that relate to the game. I’m making some of the appetizers for cocktail hour. They are doing a Meade toast to their guests right after they are pronounced man and wife. All guests will have a glass of Meade.

[@christinagable1576]

My best friend had a D&D wedding last month. It was amazing. Everyone came in a costume and the food and music was themed, it was the most fun wedding I've ever been too. I'm sure your daughter's wedding will be the same!

DND is an imaginative role play game, it doesn’t have to be just dragons and wizards - that’s what’s so cool. Anyone can write any story line you want and your character can be anything. Im a Christian and this game is one of the best bonding experiences I’ve ever done with a group it’s a shame it was outcast. Sooo fun

[@DarkLight6Tv]

It forces you to have an imagination and helps with critical thinking and problem solving. Unfortunately you cannot be exactly "ANYTHING", unless you're playing this new D&D with rules so everybody ends up winning and there are no real consequences to decisions and actions in the campaign.

[@kayladennis7238]

Came here to say that it's so much more! I love playing and feel the most creative while playing! I know it has also helped so many people with quick math, help with people's confidence, etc. I also love that it allows you to play and truly understand so many different backgrounds, issues, and truly appreciate everyone's story and struggles in life.

I wasnt allowed to go out for Halloween for the longest time because it was "Satan's birthday" 🎂 according to my parents HAPPY BIRTHDAY Satan!♡

[@kimfogle6264]

😂 Samhain, thought to be what American Halloween is based on, is simply one of many end of summer festivals around the world. Samhain literally means 'end of summer'. The year was divided into summer, the light side of the year, and winter, the dark side, and if you buy a wheel calender on Amazon you'll see that Beltane/May Day is directly opposite of Halloween/Samhain where it is also said "the veil between the two worlds, the world of the living and dead is thinnest", this is because in the northern hemisphere deciduous forest the dark side of the year was associated with death and the underworld and the light side with the living/summer/this side. Bel was a deity and the name means bright/shining and Beltane is Bels fire/summer festival.

"Land of the free! Home of the Jesus!" I laughed so hard at that!

[@sundyinnocent7014]

This makes so much sense now. I remember shows I watched for years, all of a sudden I couldn’t watch anymore like Hey Arnold and Courage the Cowardly dog. I think they even tried to cancel JK Rolling (the first time) because her Harry Potter series included witchcraft. Wild times

I read this book when I was 13! I found it at a thrift store. I am so shocked to see it covered by you Bailey!!

[@maliroa6113]

When Bailey started with D&D 😂 Young Sheldon came to mind when Sheldon's mom has a fit over Sheldon playing that deobolical game🤣

[@arielrose2994]

I'm getting into dungeons and dragons too!! Starting our first game soon

[@valerieupchurch7110]

Is no one going to talk about how stunning Bailey looks in red and with that short hair 👀👀 I was living through the ad breaks

[@angelakirkman3703]

My Dad always told me to "Avoid the very appearance of evil". So, if I had to question if something is a sin, or if something might look like a sin to someone else, DONT DO IT!!! My brother and his friends played marathon games of D&D in our basement.

[@glendajenkins1736]

I got into more arguments about back-masking and hidden messages in music when I was a kid. Never believed it, never will. Best line I ever heard about heavy metal music and it's fans, "Don't meddle in things you don't understand". Still true. Love you Bailey!!!!

[@paulawearmouth5884]

My favourite time is to lie in bed with a cup of tea and watch you Bailey. You never fail to cheer me up.

[@merinsan]

I was a Dungeon Master, though not very experienced, and it has been 20 odd years...

[@themadmadamemim2630]

I love that you reached out to TST! Those are my people and Satanists aren't what most people think we are.

[@bangtanluver]

I recently saw people say monster high dolls are satanic and trying to get them taken off the shelves again

[@trashie69]

The power that panic has is so real. The whole conclusion of this video really hit for me, aside from the main topic here, ironically I came to watch KZbin as a distraction from a panic attack this morning. I’m also making plans with some friends at my college to start a dungeons and dragons campaign like we used to do in high school, so this was all super relevant to me today❤️

[@CraftsBySammie]

Bailey Ilysm honestly you're my favorite!! Always so happy when you upload ❤

[@a_r3499]

There has been a non-zero amount of times where I don't realize what day it is, see a new Dark History on KZbin, and realize "Must be Thursday!" 🤣

[@lisagentry2210]

Girl!! I think we're all looking for a Dungeon Master hahaha

[@dawnchelle]

Loved the smurfs, Care bears, Gem, rainbow bright! Ok that’s all I really watched - my big bro was the Saturday cartoon kiddo!! ☺️ I wanted to socialize IRL☺️

[@loreleipierre5495]

“satans little dumpster squirrel” is now a term i’ll be using thanks bailey 😭✋🏻

[@mjhorvath2336]

I loved D&D and introduced my son to it and we played it as a family for years! Nothing "evil" about it. Great game! My husband was the best DM ever! Another board game version of it was Talisman. FYI: most of the "role playing" video games are based on it! >> "The RPG genre is almost entirely rooted in TSR, Inc.'s Dungeons & Dragons ( D&D; 1974)"

[@crisfield4364]

I had small children when that Martin School thing was going on. It seemed too fantastical to be true. I was skeptical. That poor family that ran the school.... 😢

[@tamsolo1584]

They did an independent investigation while the property was in escrow and found the tunnel and little sandwich baggies that the children described. As someone who has experienced SRA, I'm actually really sad at the ease in which it is so easily covered up.

[@ihatejellybeans7375]

I was a teenager working at a grocery store when the Twinkies panic happened. I got yelled at for not having any in stock like I had anything to do with it as a CASHIER

[@angelmarie1112]

@ work and having a terrible depression day... but seeing this video definitely put me in a better mood!

[@jaredchris8054]

The McMartin pre-school is a crazy story!! I learned about it in psych as a lesson for how important it is to interview children with open ended, non-leading questions. Something which the investigators clearly did NOT do.. So interesting to see this case come up on a dark history video 😮

[@Megadextrious]

Joan looks absolutely adorable in that tiny little costume 😍🥰😂😂 But yeah I grew up in the 90s and totally remember seeing like news stories where the kids were shown the puppets and how something super scandalous was happening, I just didn’t really understand what it was….. then it all kind of disappeared. I’d never heard that part about the teacher drilling holes into the kids armpit before, probably because it was so embarrassing for everyone when they found out that a paranoid schizophrenic was the main source of all this nonsense……

[@systemtomte]

As a TTRG-player, and occasional DM/GM, who doesn't play DnD, I have mixed feelings that everyone seem to want to play DnD, and some even believe that it's the only game that's out there. There are so many more, different TTRGs out there, that people should look into! Expand that interest and be adventrous, and whole new worlds will open up for you! And remember, the most important part is to have fun! (After the satanic rituals, ofc.)

[@lisaburke2870]

I'm old enough to remember all this while it was going on. When Ozzie bit the head off that bat & fans found out, they loved him even more. Yes, parents were in a panic about all this but luckily my parents were more level headed
