The author knew Mr. Lavey intimately and this gave her important insights about certain details concerning his life. The book clarifies certain details concerning a curse Mr. Lavey placed on Jayne Mansfield's boyfriend. Apparently it was Jayne herself who started up with the cursing ideas. If ever there was an example of somebody playing with fire that's it. Mr. Lavey felt he was on some sort of mission to enable Satanism to become the dominant religion in the entire world. And with the way the world is now some people might think he succeeded. There's some dark threads running through Mr. Lavey's worldview. Some of his ideas are reminiscent of the views of people like Friedrich Nietzsche, Niccolò Machiavelli, George Bernard Shaw, and even the Nazis. Mr. Lavey had some strange ideas like creating robots which looked like real people which could be used as sex slaves. Apparently something like that has been going on for a long time with the so called alien abduction phenomenon. There's also a short chapter in the book about how people can turn into werewolves. As weird as some of this stuff sounds, it may have some basis in reality on some level. Mr. Lavey was somewhat offended when people suggested that his writings such as in the Satanic Bible might drive unstable people to commit acts of violence. While he didn't encourage anyone to do that, he felt society and Christianity were the real culprits and his writings might only cause some people to seek a personal form of justice that society could not give them. There's a strange incident in the chapter called Curses And Coincidences. Mr. Lavey's partner of many years was taking legal action against him including claims of abuse and she was trying to get a restraining order against him. Mr. Lavey told his daughter that all Hell was going to break loose as result of all this. On the very day of the court case a guy by the name of James Huberty went into a McDonald's and massacred a lot of people. Mr. Lavey's estranged partner's father's name was James Hegarty which is almost the same as the mass shooter. Author Blanche Barton saw some sort of supernatural interconnection with all of this. Then in a later chapter called The Invisible Revolution Mr. Lavey himself commented about the McDonald's massacre. He said shooter James Huberty had gotten laid off from his job, he couldn't obtain Valium to calm his nerves, he was surrounded by people who didn't speak English, and most egregious of all was the crew at the McDonald's left the ice cream machine broken for two weeks. Things got weird after Mr. Lavey died. His daughters came in with a crew and raided the Black House and took anything that wasn't nailed down. Then his daughter Zeena said she had placed a curse on her father which caused his death. Some of this stuff would almost be comical if it wasn't so deadly serious. Here's some books about the alien abduction phenomenon: Secret Life by David M. Jacobs Hair of the Alien by Bill Chalker Children Of The Greys by Bret Oldham Ken Arnold was a close acquaintance and colleague of Mr. Lavey's. Mr. Arnold comes up in the following book about the Led Zeppelin curse: The Led Zeppelin Curse by Lance Gilbert Here's an interesting movie about werewolves: Werewolves on Wheels Steve Oliver, Donna Anders Michel Levesque (Director) Rated: R Format: Blu-ray Review: With all new photographs and excerpts to enjoy, this updated and revised edition cannot come highly ... - An extremely personal and emotion evoking invitation into the life and times of one of the most notorious individuals of the past century. From his childhood and upbringing, to the many and various scenarios he encountered, this book presents a first-hand narrative of Anton Szandor LaVey and introduces the creating elements involved in the design of the worlds most controversial religions. Blanche Barton shares the glorious joys and bitter moments which presented themselves throughout the life of perhaps the most honest liar of them all. With a master's craft she weaves the tapesty of not only Anton S. LaVey's life but that of The Church of Satan and its not-so-humble beginnings. With all new photographs and excerpts to enjoy, this updated and revised edition cannot come highly enough recommended to anyone interested in the COS and the history of it's founder. Respect or despise him, Doctor LaVey created something more real than any boogeyman in your closet or man in the sky. This heartfelt and real representation of his life defines the legacy which lives on in so many, and in some whether they realize it or not ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #262,351 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #145 in Demonology & Satanism (Books) #804 in Occultism #1,190 in Religious Leader Biographies | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (248) | | Dimensions | 6 x 0.75 x 9 inches | | Edition | Revised | | ISBN-10 | 1627310029 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1627310024 | | Item Weight | 1 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 280 pages | | Publication date | September 23, 2014 | | Publisher | Feral House | ## Images ![The Secret Life of a Satanist: The Authorized Biography of Anton Szandor LaVey - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61VSQBT6UQL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Informative *by J***O on September 17, 2022* This is a solid book about a mysterious, eccentric, and somewhat infamous individual.

This updated version goes beyond where the 1st edition leaves off. Blanche Barton has done an outstanding job of putting the revised edition together for all those curious enough to witness. After finishing the book, I felt as though I spent an evening with the High Priest of the church of satan himself, Anton Szandor LaVey. I've read his other book, The Satanic Bible and found I had the same beliefs even before reading it. The revised edition has revised chapters and a chapter describing the final days of Anton LaVey's life. I won't give away any other details on the book, you'll have to buy the book yourself to find out more details. If you're a true Satanist, or a person with an open mind, you'll love this book. If you're a born-again Christian, read the bible instead. As for myself, I'm neither Christian or Satanist. I would call myself an "I-Theist". This book is very entertaining and you'll want to read it a second time. Highly recommended book. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/14762654-the-secret-life-of-a-satanist-the-authorized-biography-anton](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/14762654-the-secret-life-of-a-satanist-the-authorized-biography-anton) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
