In 1986, 16-year-old Sean Sellers shocked the nation when he murdered his parents as they slept—just six months after killing a convenience store clerk in what he claimed was a Satanic ritual. Sellers insisted he was possessed by a demon named Ezurate and under the influence of devil worship, role-playing games, and occult teachings. His case became a lightning rod during the height of the Satanic Panic, raising disturbing questions about belief, mental illness, and the justice system. This is the true story of Sean Sellers—America’s so-called “Satanist Killer.”
