Is the Ice Bucket Challenge Actually a Satanic Ritual?

Alright, listen up. I got some flack from my conspiracy theory last week about the Queen of England being a cannibal. Here's the thing: that is a known conspiracy, and it's been known for a long time overseas. I am not the first person to make the connections. There's a lot of people in Europe that strongly believe this and more. In fact, the entire royal family has been doing this for hundreds of years! Look it up. I'm not the news, so if you doubt what I say just look it up for yourself. The truth is surprising sometimes.

That being said, did you guys know that the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge was actually a satanic ritual?

I know ... shocking.

Okay, this one is pretty out there, and I highly doubt this theories points, but then again, my favorite conspiracy theories are the ones that seem so outrageously crazy that they can't possibly be true in any sense. They're my favorite because of that little thought that pops up in all our heads when we read a crazy theory: But what if? What if this is actually true? I love that thought. I mean, wouldn't it be hilarious to find out that that dumb internet challenge that we all suffered through for a fundraiser was actually a ploy to get us all to please Satan? Come on that's pretty funny.

So, without further ado (because now I know you're curious about this conspiracy theory), let me tell you about this cooky (or deadly serious) theory:

What is the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge?


Social media’s phenomenon of the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge hit it’s peak during 2015, however, there has been a buzz about the challenge being a satanic ritual. The true origins of this activity is open for consideration. There are those that believe that the inception of this global craze began with a single man. Boston college student Pete Frates was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) in 2012. Two of Frates friends, Pat Quinn and Corey Griffin, are widely considered to be the creators of the challenge. Most people choose this as the preferred origin story. Most, not all.

Origin of the Satanic Theory

On the face of it, this does look like an innocent way to bring awareness of this condition while having fun and raise money at the same time. So many celebrities have taken the challenge that might have played a part in making the appeal of participating even more enticing. “If it’s good enough for David Beckham/George W. Bush/Lady Gaga/etc, then it’s good enough for me”. It is precisely because of the beliefs of selected celebrities taking part that have got some people suspicious of this initiative.

Writer for WorldNetDaily, Selena Owens, became suspicious of the Ice Bucket process and had a number of questions about it. So she conducted research into the Ice Bucket “ritual”.
She [Owens] investigated, she says, and discovered the IBC is NOT ‘a lighthearted attempt to understand a debilitating disease’…She also points to a video, in which self-described evangelist Anita Fuentes explains a number of cryptic and cultic messages hidden in the IBC ritual, which is cleansing America in the name of Anti-Christ Lucifer Satan for some future thing.

What is the Ice Bucket Ritual?

By now most people are acutely familiar with the process. The mix of ice and water is very similar to the religious ritual of baptism. Baptism is representational of various religions and belief systems, in particular Christianity. Baptism itself is similar to a Jewish ritual known as Tvilah. The modern ice bucket challenge comes in three stages, all of which must be committed to video. The first is a simple acceptance of the challenge. The second is the preparation for the challenge. The third is the challenge itself plus the victim nominating three others to take up the challenge. This just adds to the argument that the Ice Bucket Challenge is more than the innocent bit of fun that most reckon that it is.



Demonologists take a classic description of Satan and other demons – clad in black riding black horses – then apply it to witches and warlocks. In medieval times, people that practiced Wicca arts were automatically considered to be agents of the devil and reports suggest that they were cold to the touch. One reported symptom of possession is a feeling of cold for no good reason. Another sign of demonic possession is considered to be mocking the holy trinity by knocking on something loudly three times. For some people, this is enough to convince them that there is really a hidden agenda behind the entire act… and has an origin entirely in an occult context.

Did One of the Founders Jump to His Death?

Supporters of the theory that the Ice Bucket Challenge is a satanic ritual also point out that dabbling in things that aren’t generally known can come back and have dire consequences. One of the apparent founders of the Ice Bucket Challenge, Corey Griffin, died in a bizarre incident after an ALS fundraiser during the early hours of 16 August 2014. Having left the event, Griffin is said to have jumped off the roof of the venue in Straight Wharf, Nantucket.

The Boston Globe reported that Griffin floated to the surface of the sea and quickly disappeared. About an hour later, he was pronounced dead. Was Griffin somehow punished for his involvement in creating the Ice Bucket Challenge? With his whole life still ahead of him, it seems inconceivable that he would take such a risk, especially in the middle of the night having raised $100,000 for ALS research.

It is curious that only the Boston Globe reported on Griffin’s passing. Given the overwhelming popularity of the Ice Bucket Challenge, his ironic death should have gathered more coverage during the frenzy of his creation.

Taking the Ice Bucket Challenge is a task that isn’t to be taken lightly. The very thought of being drenched in cold water may not appeal to everyone and chosen individuals might require more in the way of preparation than others. Perhaps these are the people who truly buy into the concept that what they are really doing is an ages old satanic ritual. Maybe that is much more intimidating than mere ice cold water.


What are your thoughts on this theory? Have I made a believer out of you? Or are you scoffing at your computer screen right now? Well, if you are, just remember that little thought in the back of your mind questioning everything you thought you knew about the world. What if? I find this theory hard to believe, myself, but I won't admit that it's not true.

Just in case.

See you all tomorrow.

Buh-bye.
