My favorite is #4 which happened in the same neck of the woods where I grew up.
While it is fun to laugh at these now people took this stuff very seriously in the 80s. I am not sure if anyone still thinks like this, but then again old Pat Robertson of the 700 club is still around.
Not for the first or the last time I wish I had documented this time and the Satanic Panic a little better. I know there were these things going on in my home town, a small town in Central Illinois, but I managed to avoid it for the most part.
I just need 3 more souls and then the Dungeon Master will make me 10th level!
And in what can be described a wonderful irony...the 4th Edition D&D Demonicon was released on PDF just a bit ago. One of my favorite 4e books.
