About this episode

The episode explores Anton LaVey's transformation into a prominent figure in American Satanism and the mythos surrounding him.

This week, the boys return to Anton LaVey as the former circus calliope player paints his house black and transforms himself into San Francisco’s spookiest local celebrity. With big cats, Black Masses, Baphomet, Jayne Mansfield, and a whole lot of carefully crafted mythmaking, LaVey builds the foundation for what would become his own uniquely American version of Satanism.
