Satanism - Its Origins and its Rise to Sensationalism

In the development of this website, I have undertaken the task of attempting to brief the reader in the foundations of occultism, and its spiritual sub-unit Satanism. I will focus on the origins of the concept of Satan, but also of his worship: Satanism, and its appeal. Then I will look at the rise of Satanism and occultism in recent years to sensationalism, straying further from the original foundations of Satanism.

This page is part of an independent research project for the Tutorial College.  I have collaborated with Dr. Leslie Desmangles of Trinity College for some sources and information regarding Exorcism.  The rest is my own research, aided by my advisor throughout the project: Dr. Richard Lee, also of Trinity College.
