I came across a Christian group calling for a boycott of Walmart for selling Satanic merchandise. ( http://www.returntoorder.org/petition/protest-walmart-selling-satanic-products). I assumed this was wild overreaction... anyway, in this thread I will share some surprisingly fruitful searches for Satanic and otherwise occult things.

http://Walmart.com  search 1: “Satanic,” 274 hits. A wild mixture of, yes, ritual and doctrinal guides for actual Satanists, but also anti-Satanic prayer guides for Christians, as well as literary, and ironic applications of Satanic imagery

http://Walmart.com  jewelry section search: “pentagram,” 352 hits. The vast majority are point up pentagrams (that is to say, spirit affirming “white magic”) perhaps one in every 25 being point down (matter affirming and potentially Satanic).

http://Walmart.com  search: “baphomet,” 77 hits. It’s a deep cut, so I was surprised to find anything. These are a mix of subcultural items for spooky kids, with some actual ritual oils and sacred texts thrown in.

http://Walmart.com  search: “thelema,” 51 hits. Includes both magical works and tools for those who follow the magical path of Aleister Crowley (666) and the Victorian novel that seems to have factored into his creative process. Also, “Did you mean Thelma and Louise?”

http://Walmart.com  search: “occult,” 1000+ hits. These seem to be nearly all books. Many self-published works, a strange mixture of works for occultists and citations in genre fiction, as well as at least a few academic treatments of the occult.

http://Walmart.com  search: “Wicca,” 1,000+ hits, but to break it down further, 271 in personal care (mostly oils), 59 in Jewelry, 2 in movies , and effectively the entire rest in books, largely of an inspirational sort for Witches.

http://Walmart.com  search: “Luciferian,” 30 hits. This seems to be a word applied to conspiracy theorists to describe their NWO fears, including those of Katy Perry? Also a few works of magical instruction, as well as some metal on vinyl.
