Global Interest In Macabre Land
Author: Donald Wilson Source: Highland-News (UK)
Title: GLOBAL INTEREST IN MACABRE LAND
The sale of a 1.9-acre plot of land once owned by satanist Aleister Crowley has attracted international interest.
The agent marketing the site on the Loch Ness-side Boleskine Estate for an asking price of Ł176,000, said this week inquiries had come in from Canada, America and Australia.
Crowley was infamous as the "Beast of Boleskine" and owned the estate from 1899 to 1913. During his lifetime Crowley was vilified by the press as "The Wickedest Man in the World" and the tabloids regularly carried stories of his shocking exploits in occult experimentation.
His devil-worshipping followers offered animal sacrifices to Satan and used black magic rituals to invoke the four princes of evil.

This is basically a puff piece, because Scottish Housing expects a few ghosts.
"He said: "It's a beautiful spot in an elevated position with views over Loch Ness, so it really is the perfect place for a rural retreat in a very famous part of the world."
I'm sure the Church was originally built, with that in mind, although I doubt they'd built one, with less than two acres.
How much for Ruddigor Castle?

Once again, if Crowley rejected all forms of xian worship, there was no f*cking way he could have been a "satanist." "Satanists" believe in the enemy of the abrahamic cultists' "god."

Not like Crowley was any kind of saint or anything -- unless you're into Thelema, of course -- but is that any reason to further drag his name through the mud? I mean, come on, Satanism again? I hope his descendants are outraged enough to charge this prig with libel.
Yet another nail in the coffin of journalistic honesty and integrity. Wonder if there's any wood left...

It's June. The start of the Silly Season in journalism.

I suppose it would be too much to expect a journalist to do some actual research on his subject.
