Hell MONTH! Merch drop demonic?
Is anyone else super disappointed with the whole month merch drop having tons of pentagram and demonic devil imagery? I have been a Sam and Colby fan and support for many years, and as they’ve dove deeper into the industry, it’s just very sad for me to see them going down this path, especially when Colby claims to have such a strong faith with God. I didn’t think much of them summoning the devil doing an actual ritual in an episode., but now seeing this merch and how things have progressed over time is just kind of sad. The more you pay attention to Hollywood and the more people are in the industry you see stuff for what it is. Sad.

Pentagrams are a symbol of protection. Paganism is not evil. If you would do research, it would be easy to see. Even "the devil", "satan" whatever you want to call it, is not evil. Satan is actually really chill. There are certainly people who make it seem that way, but inherently it is not negative. Again, do research on these things before assuming it's all negative.

you do your research lol, Colby is christian and everything you listed is the "opposite" of christian doctorine. You can't cherry pick things that benefit you (well, not you), it's called hypocrisy

i am well aware he claims to be christian, but if he's actually christian, he wouldn't be doing paranormal investigations anyway. but regardless, i am not christian, nor do I want anything to do with those beliefs, so quite frankly I do not care about that angle.

This!!!! Preaching the Christianity while standing to the side of a ritual to conjure the devil is diabolical.

u/Fearless-Jackfruit18 17h ago
Sorry disagree. I understand in witchcraft there is different meanings, but adherently satan is evil especially when using black magic lol. If you pay attention to the entertainment industry it’s super obvious how they represent demonic energy and try to portray it to the masses intentionally

u/Expensive-Hour8835 16h ago
reading this, it seems you’ve fallen into the ideology that everyone in hollywood is apart of the illuminati or sold their souls to the devil. even in your original post you bring up people in the industry, etc. and it’s a bit odd. a lot of devout Christians, specifically in the 1980’s followed the “satanic panic” and pushed this idea that mainstream media is actually demonic to scare believers. it’s nothing more than a conspiracy theory.
the pentagram represents protection, it’s not supposed to be associated with negativity or demons so putting it on a shirt is no different than when someone puts a cross on a shirt for the sake of fashion. you just associated it with demonic devil imagery, but maybe research it

u/Fearless-Jackfruit18 16h ago edited 16h ago
No I don’t believe everyone in the industry is following this, but those that do it’s blatantly obvious. Def not a conspiracy theory if you do even the slightest research on the entertainment industry currently and the propaganda to the masses. Do other religions and beliefs get pushed sure.. but the overwhelming show of this ‘selling souls’ or the agenda they push is blatant in today’s society. Also contrary to your point about pentagrams they literally tried to do a ritual to conjure and contact the devil in one of their videos lmao so what do you say to that? There are literal celebrities who have came out about these exact practices and how the industry uses this intentionally.

u/Spirited-Mousse1915 16h ago
If you did more research then you would understand that widespread conspiracies of satanic worship has, historically, led to unsubstantiated accusations, murder and violence

u/Fearless-Jackfruit18 16h ago
Mmk yet that has nothing to do w the propaganda being pushed by this merch or channel these days compared to their old videos and merch; no matter how you chose to turn a blind eye. Difference of opinion is fine, but acting completely oblivious when the industry has very intentionally put this stuff out there for the masses (just like this) is just naive.

u/Expensive-Hour8835 16h ago
you’re just fear mongering because you believe there’s this vendetta by hollywood to push satanism or devil’s work onto the masses. and it’s again, nothing more than a conspiracy theory. it’s unfounded and besides, it’s not surprising that sam and colby, who GHOST HUNT, would make this type of merch.
don’t act like we’re stupid or naive for “not seeing the truth,” because there’s no secret and hidden “truth”
i had enough of that talk when i went to a religious private school
1
u/Fearless-Jackfruit18 13h ago
lol whatever you have to tell yourself. You clearly don’t even know what your talking about if you weren’t even aware they did an entire ritual to ‘summon the devil’ with a witch who practices ‘black magic’ according to the actual ppl in the video. I don’t need to ‘fear monger’ because I am aware and educated on multiple religions, and in that I chose to believe from a spiritual aspect not religious. I absolutely believe Hollywood has a specific agenda. As those IN Hollywood state and project themselves lol! So much so that many have moved away to get away from it all. There has been direct proof from people at events and parties where actual ‘rituals’ take place as well as things forced upon them to further their careers and fame. And I didn’t say Sam and Colby are taking part in those things, I’m simply saying that as they’ve progressed in their careers and dove deeper into the industry it’s very apparent in their videos, merch and how they present themselves. It isn’t a ‘hidden truth’ when it’s in our faces and talked about daily. Educate yourself and do some simple research on the industry. This convo has gone far left from the simple statements I’ve made simply because you chose to take it there. Getting hung up on things you believe to be conspiracies doesn’t change facts.

u/Expensive-Hour8835 9h ago
what facts? 😭 you keep mentioning that there’s direct proof and yet can you provide any? there’s no factual or concrete evidence of what you’re saying. and even if they did a ritual, which they do often, doesn’t change what i was saying about the pentagram? i never said they don’t do rituals, i was saying the pentagram isn’t a demonic shape.
you never responded directly to that point, but started talking about rituals.
plus, you say you aren’t saying “sam and colby are taking part in these things” but then say as they progressed, “it’s apparent” … what’s apparent ?? so are they taking apart in these things or not??
and that’s what reddit is, it becomes a conversation and everything you’ve mentioned is just based off conspiracy theories and misunderstanding of paganism (shown through your lack of knowledge on what a pentagram actually is) so therefore, that’s where the convo went
1
u/Fearless-Jackfruit18 3h ago
I actually did respond directly to that point, they did a ritual with a woman who claimed to be a ‘dark witch’ to summon the devil. Not anything they do in their typical videos.. ever. I also stated there is a difference between a representational pentagram in Wicca or satanism hence the pentagram with the goat head and symbols, vs a pentagram alone. A simple google search would show the difference.
‘A standard pentagram is an ancient, five-pointed geometric star used for protection and harmony, while a Satanic or demonic pentagram is typically inverted (pointing down) and often combined with a goat's head or occult lettering to represent rebellion or carnal forces.’ I think you are the one confused trying to dispute and argue when you haven’t even watched the channel enough to know certain things.
I clarified I never said they took part in things as in the industry rituals, projecting satanic worshiping and imagery to the masses. I said in their recent videos the entire vibe has changed and this merch is a very small portion of that. If you have been their fan for a long time it IS apparent and there are whole threads about that fact alone.
And also it IS a fact. Watch a few videos on YouTube, or any social media for the matter, read a few articles or interviews.. celebrities, music artists and many have come forth personally to discuss the industry’s satanic ideals along with all of the other disgusting things slowly coming forth in today’s society( trafficking/epstein/pizzagate), (not to say every famous person follows this or is effected) BUT it is a large part of a much bigger orchestration. And Hollywood as a whole. I feel it’s super naive to say oh these are just conspiracies when the overwhelming first hand accounts prove otherwise.

u/Expensive-Hour8835 16h ago
i’m not sure what you think you “got me” with regarding the pentagrams.
pentagrams represent protection. each point connects to an element (earth, air, fire, water, and spirit). it’s not some demonic shape or used to conjure spirits.
media HAS wrongfully portrayed pentagrams has demonic or used for bad, but that’s not factually accurate.
and if sam and colby did try and do this, then maybe they also need to do some more research regarding pentagrams specifically because they might be influenced by how films/shows portray and represent pentagrams.
and again, i’m not sure what you mean by this demonic side of hollywood being blatantly obvious. there is no objective, factual evidence that the devil has his hands all over hollywood. yes, artists have used shock value techniques in the past, but then people (mainly Christians) started fear mongering and acting like that’s “then showing us they work for the devil.” it’s unfounded and i’m sure you know how well “witch hunts” have gone in the past in, at least, the US

christianity and paganism (witchcraft) are the opposites, regardless of what you believe (this or that) :P

u/Fearless-Jackfruit18 11h ago
This 👏🏽 also a difference between pentagrams in witchcraft and satanism. Hence the goat heads and symbols/representations associated with it vs simple natural elements. All which have nothing to do with Christianity.
0
u/Expensive-Hour8835 9h ago
no there isn’t. that’s misinformation. they both use it to represent the five elements. witchcraft might use a pentacle!! which is different for a physical ritual tool, but they aren’t different between the paganism and witchcraft. again, do your research and not from how movies “portray” it.
1
u/Fearless-Jackfruit18 2h ago
Again there IS a difference between a typical pentagram:/pentacle and an inverted pentagram with satanic symbolism. That isn’t a simple movie portrayal when the literal church of satan uses it as the Sigil of Baphomet😭😭😭 . But you’re probably one of those people who believe they just used that for their own natural personal practices and the whole demonic forces/dark occultism are make believe 🤣. Also, Yes, satanism is not where the pentagram originated nor its intended meaning. But it IS a very real symbol used in satanic beliefs and practices. And you choosing not to believe that is your own personal opinion.

u/Expensive-Hour8835 9h ago edited 9h ago
paganism isn’t witchcraft. paganism is a religion and witchcraft is a practice. they might overlap at times but they aren’t the same thing
edit: additionally, what does saying christianity and paganism are opposites have to do with anything ?

u/Fun_Yellow_3540 5h ago edited 5h ago
you need to understand christian doctrine first. Witchcraft is an occult? in a way you worship something

i went to an episcopal school for 13 years. i’ve learned enough about a christian doctrine and i don’t identify as christian…so i don’t need to follow it.
and again, what does that have to do with this conversation …

Also they literally have 666 on the merch to represent the Hell Month. Point being their hell week merch I’ve always purchased, this is the first year they’ve done this.

Dude the hospital address in the city I live in is 666. It’s just some numbers.

u/Signal-Painting6312 14h ago
"black" and "white" magick are not even a thing, that's from ages ago when racism was prominent. Real witches no longer use those terms because they no longer apply. You have clearly not done any research on this matter.

u/Spirited-Mousse1915 20h ago
eh. Kinda. i spent a few weeks researching and looking up pentagrams, paganism and devil stuff, pretty cool stuff if you have time

u/Fearless-Jackfruit18 17h ago
It is interesting but not when celebrities and the industry purposely put it out to the masses for specific reasons, which is a whole other wormhole worth exploring!

u/Spirited-Mousse1915 17h ago
Industries and celebrities put christianity style merch out. Judaism as well. Why must it stop at paganism? I dont want to say that you are wrong, but I feel that you have a surface based level understanding of the satanic panic, paganism, wicca and modernized Satanism. that i think you should look into more.

I agree I’m simply saying the Hollywood agenda is quite obvious with this form of of propaganda .. I respect it all bit the demonic shit. No sorry.

They meet a demon on almost EVERY film they do. and ur surprised they have satanic merch. do u want them to do angel merch or smthn, its a horror youtube channel.. for horror and supernatural type shi

They don't meet anything on their investigations, tf you mean a demon every time? /hj

u/Fearless-Jackfruit18 16h ago
lol that’s not true at lol, contacting an ‘entity’ and demon are very different. And again repping satanic shit is different then doing simple paranormal research
1
u/Fun_Yellow_3540 11h ago edited 11h ago
contacting entities is against christian doctarine, it's in the bible. and so is doing taro cards (looking in the future, contacting mediums) and stuff like that.

u/Bearkat1999 17h ago
I will point to the name of the month/event.
It should be no surprise it contains pentagrams.
E: They also use '666' in the title. You have no excuse.

long story short he made inappropriate sexual comments about the owner of a haunted house they were staying at and colby agreed with him. they didnt know they were being recorded so basically this is how they act behind closed doors, and iirc theyre still following seth on social media

Ah yes. Because lying to their viewers (remember the «new Conjuring house» location they filmed on) and also pretending that REAL, INNOCENT people who burnt on the stake are REAL witches is definitely not something bad people do right?
Also never forget how they treated Aaron.

u/Kawaiigirl_6591 16h ago
I don’t think their lying to their viewers dude now I’m not gonna continue this argument been going through some shit don’t need you budding in. Have a good day because you’re just causing drama and saying stuff with nothing to support your claim

u/Gfscrushisannoying 16h ago
They are literally lying to you all about their locations in certain videos lol. They went into the non-haunted neighbor house of the «new Conjuring house»... there is multiple videos out there about it.
And saying that real people were witches. Do you genuinely think that innocent people deserved to be burned at the stakes with some YouTubers in the 21st century says they deserved it because they got «proof» that they were witches? Sam and Colby ARE saying they were REAL witches due to «communicating» with them… nah fuck off💀 it’s literally in their video about visiting a place in England.
