Dungeons & Dragons: Adventure or Abomination | Satanic Panic VIDEO
In the 1980s, a moral panic swept across America, fueled by fears of satanic cults and occult activity. One of the targets of this hysteria was the popular fantasy game Dungeons & Dragons. Join us as we explore the history of the "Satanic Panic" and its impact on D&D and popular culture.
"Abomination" or harmless hobby? The debate over Dungeons & Dragons reached a fever pitch in the 80s, with some religious leaders like Pat Robertson labeling the game as a gateway to devil worship. In this video, we have a look at a leaflet distributed by Pat Robertsons Christian Bible Network (CBN).
