My mom was super religious when I was a kid. One day I came home from school and found out that she had raided my bedroom and purged it of all my Smurf toys. She said they were evil and I could no longer play with them (or watch the cartoon). I always thought that was odd. YEARS later I watched that "Deception of a Generation" video on TH-cam (that you referenced at 4:15). I then realized that she must've watched those two boneheads and believed what they said about Smurfs!
Omg how I remember this. The clips of Rob Halford in court are hilarious. I’m clearly going to hell with the amount of devils music and movies I’ve watched.
I own a lot of old "Satanic Panic" VHS tapes. One of my favorites is a "set" that released in the early 90's. It's called "Allure of Rock." They rip apart all the popular music of the time, like Nine Inch Nails and so on. The only problem is... they released it like 4 months before Marilyn Manson hit the scene (so they missed out on a GOLD MINE of content). Immediately the producers of the VHS tape revised their video and re-released it under the title "Allure of Rock: Revisited." That second version was then overloaded with Manson footage/lyrics/etc. I own both copies of the tape (pre and post Manson).
Several years ago, I was reading about the show Mr Ed. And not only did the talking horse get dragged into the satanic hype but it happened in my town. A local preacher declared that the mr Ed theme had satanic messages when played backward. He actually got quite a few kids to burn their records! This happened maybe a few months before we moved there but I went through all my schooling there. So it was surprising I never heard of this until 30+ years later.
Yes, I remember this. I grew up in Australia and my mum got “born again” and joined a Pentecostal church. I was watching Mr Ed one day when my mum’s church friend told her it was satanic. According to her, the horse could speak because it was possessed by the devil. Turned out that most things I liked or that were any fun were satanic. Crazy, depressing times!
😂😂✌😉 super fun episode. When growing up Iron Maiden was the worst thing I could listen to, and I was genuinely afraid of listening, I also remember people saying not to have Smurfs dolls because they become real at night and kill you. Crazy times.. I still remember to this day when my dad took me to the theater to watch the Smurfs movie. Was something amazing at the time for me.
The Smurfs had black lips? All this time I thought that was just how animators drew mouths for every cartoon character ever. Are all cartoons evil? My whole world is crashing down!
Great video man! I think all that Satanic Panic is what got me interested. I've been asked if I was a satanist a lot more than other people. I got the 3rd degree about D&D when I was a kid. I don't believe in the character but I think he kicks ass. I've been the devil the most of anything else on Halloween. I'm a metalhead and the devil's all over that. The devil is a great character on movies and TV. So my answer is always, I'm not a Satanist just a fan! :]
@@NerdOutWithMe o.k. Glad my folk never did that. I remember being in the car with my mom and kept turning down the chorus parts to Highway To Hell and Number of the Beast when she let me listen to my tapes in the car. Funny how I'd turn it down all of a sudden and pretend to talk to her, then blast it again soon as the verse started back lol
THIS IS GOOD AS. UNDERRATED VIDEO. I BELIEVE THIS IS THE REASON BEING "SATANIC" BECAME SO EDGY AMONG THE KIDS OF TODAY, WHO WERE RAISED BY PEOPLE FROM THAT GENERATION.
it was certainly an odd time during the early eighties when this started. They went after all sorts of rock bands including Queen and Led Zeppelin. Queen if you spin "Another One Bites The Dust Backwards' he says "start to smoke marijuana". Led Zepp it was of course Stairway to Heaven. Backwards, Robert Plant was allegedly proclaiming Satin was his sweet one and how he'll give you powers. Then there was of course the acronyms they claimed rock bands names were, KISS was Knights in Satan's Service, STYX was "Satan To Your Crossing" (The X of course representing the crossing), I think I even heard RUSH was "Running Under Satan's Hollow". (Whatever that meant) Every damn rock show I went to through out the eighties we had to walk through religious nut heads picketing the show. And the rockers just kinda embraced a lot of it because it was driving attention to their albums. Look at the album cover of Ronnie James Dio's Holy Diver album which shows a giant demon or devil whipping a chain that I'm assuming was connected to the chains a priest who's caught in a river are wrapped in. The stuff you guys experienced in the 90's I was unaware of because of our age difference. I didn't know The Smurfs were evil. I do remember the D&D stuff though.
Ahhh being a kid back then and having well pretty down to earth mom and dad who laughed there asses off about it I was a little kid playing with he-man action figures ect jamming out to hard rock music the only thing I had to do was be my ass in the house when the street lights came on or my butt was tanned from a belt . However I blame it all on the 80’s cause I’m into dark shit now well not too dark lol
Haha. The Smurfs are the work of the devil!! Blue with black lips and only one female between them! Yea, poor Gary Gygax had to defend the best game ever devised from this crap and that's still sad.
"Teenagers destroyed records and tapes that THEY felt..." No, their wackjob parents felt that. The teens did as they were told, because it was that or further abuse
I was not allowed to watch the dungeons and dragons cartoons so I watched Looney Toons cuz they were so much safer ti watch lol. Funny thing about Angelo having the number 1 satanic unsolved mystery was the police knew who did it just they didn't have enough evidence (he's being looked at today 30+yrs later for the murder cuz he has like hair from them or something) and second was there's like a church on every street corner in San Angelo. The pews were always full and so was the donation baskets. Guess the satanic panic worked for us because the money always went to the church lol

Thanks for watching. Satan hates the ozone layer.
Did you ever watch the Adult Swim show 'Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell'? Highly recommended.
@@slayskool777 I did not. But now I will!

As long as you didn't play any records backwards!

That's cool as
Holy cow. I never knew this was even a thing! How absurd.

They should make a Smurf horror movie.
“Buy more of our records” 😅
Grew up in the Bible Belt in the 80s as a heavy metal fan and D&D player so I was the evil kid.
You must have some interesting stories!
The Smurfs had black lips? All this time I thought that was just how animators drew mouths for every cartoon character ever. Are all cartoons evil? My whole world is crashing down!
Yeah, the black lips thing is weird... and an odd stretch at best. I didn't even understand what he meant until I really took a good look.
The people who were burning the Narnia books were apparently unaware that C. S. Lewis was a very devout Christian.
Exactly. Paranoia at its best.
I totally remember this…ironically my all girls Catholic high school had a D&D club
Really? That's actually pretty amazing.
@@NerdOutWithMe yeah I wondered if the nuns just didn’t realize what it was
The devil was thought to be everywhere lol
It was so absurd.
Crazy seeing the grifters making money by creating this false panic. Good thing we’ll never fall for that again!
I smell sarcasm. ;)

May I suggest a 'Satan's Helpers" Pee Wee biker gang Halloween costume this Halloween? LOL
Sad memories of my mom finding and burning my MtG collection :(
I honestly can't even imagine.
@@NerdOutWithMe Fortunately I didn't own anything of value at the time.
What's MTG?

I loved the Satanic Panic! All my favorite music, movies and books came ot of it. 🤘😂🤘
I was writing to say hello and I hope you are doing well. Have a great day buddy.
Movie where image at 3:48 is clipped from?
The Devil's Rain (1975)
The D&D Chick Tract is one of the funniest things I have ever read so satanic panic wasn't all bad
Chick Tracts were always a pretty reliable source of comedy.
Have you seen the movie they made from it?
It's absolutely bonkers and hysterical and one of the funniest movies I've ever seen
Anybody remember the satanic panic of pokemon 😂
Ahhh being a kid back then and having well pretty down to earth mom and dad who laughed there asses off about it I was a little kid playing with he-man action figures ect jamming out to hard rock music the only thing I had to do was be my ass in the house when the street lights came on or my butt was tanned from a belt .

You forgot about the pastor talking about Pokemon showing their viewers how to master the art of witchcraft.😂😂😂
Welp, you just lead me down another rabbit hole

Yea, poor Gary Gygax had to defend the best game ever devised from this crap and that's still sad.
I missed out on playing D&D for a long time because of all this silliness. Wish I got to play back then.
@@NerdOutWithMe I played when I was 7. My character climbed a cliff and encountered a Skeleton.
I died. Game over. Lol
"Teenagers destroyed records and tapes that THEY felt..."
No, their wackjob parents felt that. The teens did as they were told, because it was that or further abuse
Wow, this was real? It's hard to believe this stuff happened
Unfortunately, it's still going on in small weird circles.
Hail Satin!

Nothing like a good satanic scare to fill those coffers!
