Explores the sociological dymanics underpinning the contemporary fear of satanism. The author shows how rumour can turn into "facts"; how groups set up to combat the satanism gain power and money; how the scare mirrors a moral crisis in America; and the continued effect of medieval folklore.
"Sociologist Victor began his involvement with satanic-cult phenomena by investigating a local panic centered in southwestern New York state. After an introductory section, his book begins with a description of this research, then proceeds with an excellent general review of recent fear about satanic cults in the U.S. He concludes that there is no evidence for the actual existence of organized satanic cults". -- Choice
