Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

"I rarely recommend books. However, this one needs to be put before the public. In Lauren's story lies a tremendous ministry to individuals caught in abuse."
--Hal Lindsey

As a child, Lauren Stratford lived the agony of being trapped between two worlds-the outside world of school, church, and friends, where everything appeared normal, and the inner world of a twisted, satanic nightmare, where mind control, fear, and ritualistic child abuse were her constant companions.

Satan's Underground is Lauren's true story, and it is perhaps the most shocking, terrifying, unforgettable story of satanic manifestations ever told. Readers from coast to coast will be shocked and disturbed by the story told here. But most of all, they will come to care deeply for the many thousands of innocent children who are faced with unspeakable horrors at the hands of modern-day satanists.

WARNING:

The portrayal of evil in the book, though substantially restrained, may be difficult emotionally for some to handle. Reader discretion is advised.

Agencies such as the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, the Cult Crime Impact Network, and the National Coalition Against Pornography have used Ms. Stratford's expertise and experience in recognizing satanic ritualistic abuse.

It is real America...Do not think the people of this country are above doing these things!!!High Ranking Officials too!

The reports you hear about satanic cults are all to real, do not let the media(who is controlled by higher authorities)try to sugarcoat or down play the reality.I have been in D.C.(in a gay bar called La'Cage on O st.)where the guys are totally naked and walk up and down the bar!! My friend was/is gay and stripped there and I can not even remember how many married Government officials were there(with their rings on too!),I have gone to parties at their homes/hotels where drugs are passed in bowls!!!(that was a congressmans home!)They are very into perverted sex also,it was typically gay,and the younger looking the better(we were in our early 20's at the time).I was shocked at first but between the drugs,my past abuse,and the regularity of it all it became nothing to see people having freaky sex on the floor,closet,hallway,tables,etc.I began to think it was normal,and the sad thing is that it is,especially in D.C. OUR CAPITAL! We live in a twisted perverted time(and country).I know far to well that there are cults(no idea how many) in this country that are satanic in nature(if they are not of the one true God,then they are of satan!) I know this because I was in one myself! It was "loosley" formed,nothing to the degree of "Laurens" dealings,but evil and destructive in the very least. I was sexually abused and then I spiraled into occult/satan worship,so it is connected. I do not see why people find it so hard to believe? It is so common and open these days,you Christians(and thank God I am now one) better wake up and open your eyes to the things of this world!!!!Do not be blinded by the enemy! I am thankful for being in the occult for a couple reasons, first, I have seen things people would not believe as a result of satan and his demons,so it is easier for me to accept that God can do so much more in the supernatural than the weakling satan,and second I can help others who are still in its grasp. I have a hard time with my past,but know it is that,only my past,Jesus has taken it and I am new! I do have demonic harassment, but am working(with God) towards deliverance and complete freedom! It is all to real and I have no idea how it stays so hidden! There is a lot of activity in DC if you want to see for yourself! Just be careful!

Satan's Undergroound: The Extraordinary Story of One Womsn's Escape

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 18, 2013

Verified Purchase

This woman was born on 8/18/41, & died at the age of 60 on 4/8/2002. She was a woman with a long history of mental illness. She repeatedly threatened suicide & practiced self mutilation. She is a discredited author with a history of making false allegations of abuse. She first claimed to have been a Holocaust survivor & then re-invented herself & claims to have been a victim of Satanic Ritual Abuse. The real crime here is the Forward written by such people as Kenneth Wooden, Former Special investigative Reporter for ABC News's 20/20, describing it as a "work of national importance" or Hal Lindsey who stated, "The story is incredible & true". A man is good as his/her word.
Even if Ms. Stratford fabricated her story, I am sure that she told of someone else's story of child abuse at the hand of a parent. She was absolutely correct in saying that there were no protective services at that time for children. She claims to have repeatedly turned to others such as her Sunday School teacher, minister, youth minister, school counselor, & police to no avail. That is certainly plausible. It is also plausible that she did not leave home until the age of 20. It is possible for one to earn a college degree. It is highly likely that she was able to procure employment, but not be able to hold down skilled work due to inability to concentrate & then get on disability benefits. If that is the case, then she could not have written this book.
She is correct in saying that the victim is not to blame for the offense. The victim of incest & rape has nothing to be sorry for or ashamed of. We do not know why God allows such wicked things to take place, but the abused person is loved wholly & completely by God & is looked upon no differently than anyone else. At the same time God loves the abuser & can forgive him/her of their sins. She makes a point that the abused should forgive & guard against bitterness & that recovery takes years.
She makes a valid point that pornography has 2 victims-the one forced to participate & the one who reads the filth. There is always a progression from soft porn to hardcore porn. Sin begets more sin. Porn does lead to sexual perversion & to crimes of rape & incest.
As far as SRA, it does exist to a greater or lesser extent per doccumented evidence in police reports. This fabricated story does hurt the credibility of other victims of SRA. Those who promoted & published this material should be ashamed since all they care about is another dollar to be made & getting their name published. Ms Stratten may you finally RIP.
I highly recommend the book entitled, Dancing with the Devil: An honest look into the occult from former followers, written by Jeff Harshbarger, a former Satanist.

Rings true for me.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 2, 2008

I read the article by Cornerstone Magazine. Just a bunch of he-said, she-said. Though they demand evidence from the author (knowing full well how satanists cover their tracks) they provide none themselves!

I saw a reviewer here saying that the book talks about filming and video taping in years before this was done outside of big movie studios. Wish he had told the page number or chapter. All I see talked about is photography.

Whether or not this story is true, how can one verify one way or another? I know the kinds of activities it describes have gone on down through the ages around the world. In addition, with all the current glorification of witchcraft, violence, and the rampant cases of child abuse, plus pornography selling more than Big Macs, it sounds totally believable, tragically. Whether this particular woman had those particular experiences - and I personally believe her - we need to pray for such victimization to end and the healing of such people, and this nation, to begin. The very least we can do is pray for them. "To one who sees good to do, and does not do it, to him it is a sin."

To the author, and all those who believed, supported and helped her, I say Thank you for being bright lights against the darkness of this present age. Ms. Stratford I so admire you for taking the moral victory away from satan and triumphing over him. Please pray for me to some day show to someone/s the love, understanding, support and compassion you were shown by Johanna & her husband (with protection for us would be wonderful, since I don't know if I would have your courage ;-) ).
In Yahushua's love...

Lauren is very brave in sharing her story. I would recommend this to all SPIRITUAL people and truth seekers. We must know the truth about what is going on in the world and that satanism is real and many people are trapped. Lauren shows us how she came from darkness to the Light.
