To Hell Ceases Print Publishing [posted: March
2004] |
|
In
1999, Superhighway To Hell moved from being a column in the widely-read
Satanic publication, Not Like Most, to its own publication. STH lasted
in print through four editions (2000-2003) and was largely a website
review publication. But, in March 2004, STH publisher, Matt G. Paradise,
felt that the print medium was too limited for what the publication
was and what it could be, both in exposure and in content. So the
idea was moved to an online format, providing a more interactive experience
and gaining a larger audience. Now, instead of simply website reviews,
the online version of STH brings its readers a more comprehensive
resource for Satanism online, including articles, links, news, reviews,
and more. |

Dutch
Website On Satanism Launches
[posted: August 2006]
From the website: "DesDuivels.Info
(“De Duivels” meaning “Of the Devil”)
is an information point where clear and unambiguous information
about Satanism and the Church of Satan can be found in the Dutch
language. Rather than taking a defensive or justifying position,
I am of the opinion that Satanism does not need to be justified.
Consequently, no guestbook or discussion forum is provided.
The site contains only texts about Satanism and the Church of
Satan. Undoubtedly, the body of texts will expand in the future,
and content will be continually refined." |

Church of Satan Reverend Shane Bugbee (also owner of
Radio
Free Satan) has corresponded with serial killers, spoken
with prosecutors and been confronted by victims' families over
the last 20 years. So, keeping up on the latest technologies
surrounding transmission of audio content on the Internet, he
now offers up his own podcast on the subjects of "true
crime, killers, victims, revenge, and justice" called Daily
Crime Cast. (Archives go back to December 2005.) Bugbee
has produced a good amount of books, audio CDs & DVDs on
killers & crime over the last two decades, and his perspective
is certainly not whitewashed or toned-down for the media-fed
masses. Fire up your podcatcher (iTunes will do it) and check
