Here’s this week in Pandemonium history.

September 9, 1739—The Stono Rebellion erupts in South Carolina. The Strangers form a militia and volunteer their services to the state government. The Mayor of the North Side, Cotton Winthrop, would later explain that they really needed wives, and when you are in a pinch, you rely on tradition.

September 10, 1919—To celebrate America’s victory in World War I, Pandemonium hosts a parade down main street, right down the center of the Line. This predictably ends in a fight, as the Witches hate seeing Fieldhands in American uniforms, and one Stranger doughboy bumps into a Ze’ev by accident.

September 11, 2001-Like Americans everywhere, Pandemonians watch in horror as Al-Qaida terrorists fly passenger planes into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Satanic High Priest Acton Ravenwood breaks an oath by the Witch community never to use black magic when he conjures a curse on Osama Bin Laden’s head.

September 12, 1955—Pandemonium Native Marcus Johnson goes five rounds with Sugar Ray Robinson. Johnson, a Fieldhand, loses by knock out, though he does his hometown proud. A local restaurant later denies him service that same month due to the application of Jim Crow laws.

September 13, 1852—Satanic High Priest Beauregard Davis announces that he has made important discoveries in the working of the human brain. It appears one of his house servants suffered a head injury after falling from a third-floor window. Davis, fashioning himself an antebellum brain surgeon, proceeded to operate on the servant without anesthesia.

September 14, 1957—The Witches “come out” as Satanic High Priest Blaise Jackson reveals the existence of the Satanic Temple to the world, ending more than three centuries of secrecy. 1950s America reacts with fear and anger, as a large group of Christians from out of town surround the Second Satanic Temple. Jackson disperses them with a threatened curse.

September 15, 1968—Amidst the turmoil of the 1960s, David Shapiro, a man from a respectable Ze’ev family, climbs the highest tower at Cramner University with a rifle and opens fire on the student body below, killing six. After Shapiro is taken down by local police, an investigation finds he had been planning the attack for some time but cannot discern any motive. Aside from materials used to conduct and plan the shooting, authorities only find a drawing of what appears to be a golden idol of a wolf posted directly above his bed.
