About This Video
This video was uploaded to the YouTube channel Shiver in May 2022.
In the 1920s, the narrowest place in the Arroyo Seco was dammed to control flooding, and it was named Devil’s Gate Dam, for the demon-like face of a horned figure in the natural rock formation. In the 1940s, a group of occultists became interested in the area and attempted rituals intended to open a portal to Hell. The group included rocket scientist Jack Parsons (a follower of Aleister Crowley’s Thelema) and L. Ron Hubbard (future founder of Scientology). Their goal was to bring forth a “moonchild,” which they hoped would be an Antichrist figure that would lead a Thelemic revolution.
