Can someone explain what my son saw?

[WitchesInTheWoods]

My DS (14) and his friends went for a walk deep in the woods yesterday. They came across four people standing in a circle with candles and markings on the ground. Two were dressed in all black, very smart, like priests. The other two were in normal clothes and were bleeding from their arms. My son said he saw them cut themselves, they were mumbling something inaudible while the two in all black held their arms in the air and chanted. When they realised they were being watched one of the people in black told the boys they were going to cut their heads off if they don’t leave. I know it’s true because one of the kids filmed it and I’ve watched it. Wtf!?

Could just be a pagan ritual. People are allowed to practice their spiritual beliefs. Or it could be teenagers pissing about.

This is a parenting forum populated largely by frazzled, middle class premenopausal women. We've been excitedly arguing about a second hand changing bag in a charity shop for several weeks now. The chances of any of us having insider knowledge of satanic forest rituals are quite slim, tbh.

😂😂😂

It’s just some twats thinking they’re doing a black magic ritual.

They’re probably lik rly into Aleister Crowley.

My guess is a game of soggy biscuit ( women can play too ). 😂

Thank you!

I don't think satanic rituals are really a thing.

They absolutely, they just don’t achieve anything.

I call BS. Video please!

People are allowed to practice their spiritual beliefs.

They’re not allowed to threaten to cut peoples’ heads off.

In an emergency like this, dial 666. That'll do the trick.

Not much blood to be seen in the pix. Very disappointed.

Hello I am one of the witches in this video. I am attempting to summon Idris Elba and your son and his mates were ruining the vibe.

No idea. Tell the police

Dying!

Agreed. I live in a very alternative, pagan, hippy area and none of the rituals are to do with Satan. More likely to be for pre-Christian nature gods and whatnot.

Satanic stuff feels very American and filmic to me.

Speak for yourself.

Can you not remember when you were 14 and you and your mates made shit up?

@teddingtonbear

This is why I don't like the woods.

Same!

I think people are going even weirder than usual after all the stress of the pandemic. Some people think they can save the planet by gluing themselves to motorways, some people attack MPs, some people are holding pagan rituals in the woods and threatening kids 🤷‍♀️

Haha but not to threaten people who may see them.

For a real ritual I would imagine it would have to be at least half dark. If 2 are in own clothes it sounds more like an initiation. It didn't look in the least bit real but that may be due to the angles. I second a photo shoot for a level film or photography students. There are no horns or goats so it can't be satanic.....😈

Exactly.

So he knew your son, or did he just magic up the name?

I'm impressed that they hung around to film it.
