In the Name of the Devil: Inside America's Satanic Panic & Cult Crimes

A gripping true-crime exploration of Satanic ritual abuse, moral panic, cult psychology, and real courtroom horrors.

When America lost its sense of rationality in the 1980s and 90s, fear became evidence—and the Devil's name provided the ultimate weapon. In the Name of the Devil dives deep into the era's most chilling Satanic panic cases, from recovered-memory witch hunts to wrongful convictions and devastating media hysteria.

Discover how:

· Over 12,000 unsubstantiated cases of Satanic ritual abuse (SRA) disrupted families and ruined lives.

· Panic spread like wildfire—fueling cult conspiracy, ritual murder, and moral crusades across America.

· High-profile trials (West Memphis Three, McMartin Preschool, Ricky Kasso) revealed how false evidence and mass delusion can override truth.

Inside these pages:

· Courtroom drama and forensic failures behind America's most notorious cult crime cases.

· The symbolism of Baphomet, pentagrams, and occult rituals—stripped of supernatural hype and viewed through cold, factual lenses.

· A penetrating cultural history of the Satanic panic—rooted in religion, psychology, and media manipulation.

· Profiles of real victims, suspects, experts, and journalists caught in the whirlwind of fear.
