Today is “Friday the 13th” and we Satanists enjoy the consternation this number conjures amongst the superstitious. On this “dreaded day,” while the credulous cower we sally forth to indulge with gusto. May your day be truly splendid with an even more enriching night, dear aficionados of the outré! —Magus Peter H.
