Blind Item #6 - It Was Quick

For years, this massive building in Los Angeles lay abandoned. It was a building filled with a long history if secret rituals. Just because it closed didn't mean the rituals ended. While the building was technically for sale, this was the location that true believers came. They were tired of the homogenized, watered down version of what their society used to be. They wanted to return to what it was in the Middle Ages. So, it was rented by the head of a studio. A big studio. A studio that seemingly has tentacles in every part of entertainment and media. It was ostensibly rented to be an overflow warehouse of props and costumes because it was near an area used for a lot of filming. It was never going to be that though because the building could be sold at any time. Instead, it was used for the rituals that stopped being performed two hundred years ago except for one other location in Virginia, and even they only perform the rituals once every few years.

Los Angeles was different. Every star loves a show. They especially love a dark show where they are the only ones invited. The head of the studio rented it an paid the initial bills, but the person who called themselves Tubal Cain is an A list mostly movie actor who is an Academy Award winner/nominee and is not someone you would think of to be leading a group like this. In today's society, the vows you take don't carry any weight. The rituals are just words. This group of about 75 people took them seriously. They acted them out. No secret handshakes for this group. They have four dots tattooed to them perfectly aligned to a compass. One tattoo artist does it for everyone. I say does. A few months ago, it would have been did.

One day the realtor told the studio head that the property had been sold and they would have to vacate. The place had always been for sale, but who would buy it? It was massive. Someone did. That person was approached and the space was allowed to be used for six months and after that, no more. After the six months, they really had no place to go. This was not something you could do at a home. They needed space to be able to watch a virgin have sex on an altar. In another part, I will tell you how they found the virgins. Anyway, they had to leave. For the next few years, every single member used their power to make the lives of the new owner miserable until finally they gave in. It was quick. It was when they threatened to release a secret that would devastate the owner. Overnight, it was theirs again and has been for the past several months. Self isolation doesn't apply to them. Drive by at night and see the glow of the lights.
