30 Years of Evil [Obscure Archive #001]

For 30 years, we were afraid of evil...
In this first entry of the Archive of Obscure Truths, we explore three decades of serial killers, moral corruption and media horror. Against the Satanic Panic, people were scared of violent films and music, fearing that the wrong scene or song could corrupt their children, and put them in contact with dangerous Satanists.  You might think this absurd moral panic can be dismissed as an odd moment of cultural hysteria, but you do not know how stupid, and how harmful it got.

With a download, you also receive Stranger Danger, a choose-your-own-adventure story where you can put your Stranger Danger knowledge to the test and see if you can escape the clutch of deranged Satanists.
