Church of Satan threatens to hex arsonist who burned down OnlyFans star Matthew Camp’s home

The Church of Satan has threatened to hex the arsonist who burned down the home of Matthew Camp, which previously belonged to a high-ranking member of the church.

Matthew Camp and a roommate narrowly escaped when their home was set on fire in the early hours of 14 January. Both were unharmed by the blaze, which Camp believes was a “hate crime”.

Police are currently searching for the arsonist was captured on CCTV spraying gasoline on the porch, while supporters have started a GoFundMe to support Camp, who lost all his material belongings in the fire.

Before Camp purchased the property in October 2020, the house in Poughkeepsie, New York belonged to the late Joe “Netherworld” Mendillo, a high-ranking Church of Satan member, who passed away in January 2020, and was locally known as the “House of Netherworld” or “Halloween House”.

The high priest of the Church of Satan, Peter H Gilmore, said in a statement that the church “cannot be certain” of the arsonist’s motivation, but that some were “offended” at Mendillo’s membership of the church.

Gilmore said: “Those who took the time to research our religion learned that it is not devil worship, but instead an atheist philosophy of individualism, liberty, and fulfilment.

“Whether they felt sympathetic to those views or not, Joe was always gracious and offered people advice on gardening, home restoration and décor, among other topics, which he characterised as being a ‘dark side Martha Stewart’.

“He was a knowledgeable man and generous to those requesting his informed perspective.

The home, built in 1900, served as an Addams Family-style hub for local adherents of the religion, the Poughkeepsie Journal reported.

Surveillance footage showed a man walking up to the house after 5am on Thursday with two gas cans, splashing liquid on the front porch and igniting it. Two people escaped the house unharmed, authorities said.

Peter H Gilmore, high priest of the Church of Satan, paid tribute in a “requiem” to the house and its former owner, Joe “Netherworld” Mendillo, a church member and “dark side Martha Stewart” who died last year.

“Joe’s legacy will live on, even though the extraordinary home he so carefully cultivated has been destroyed through the hateful act of some deeply disturbed individual,” Gilmore said in the statement, which the Church of Satan sent to the Guardian via Twitter.

“There is melancholy poetry to the thought that the ashes of Magister Netherworld himself, stored in his haunted palace, have now mingled with those of that brooding structure he made a reflection of his essence, melding them for all time, and infusing that unholy plot for eternity.”

Another member of the church likened the arson to a terrorist attack.

“Everybody’s in shock and everyone in the neighborhood is worried,” the church member, who goes by the name Isis Vermouth, told the Poughkeepsie newspaper. “Whoever did this is going to be hexed by all of us.

“Now there’s going to be hell to pay.” – Source
