Following LaVey’s death, members of the Church of Satan unsuccessfully attempted to raise funds to repurchase the house, and it was demolished on October 17, 2001. A duplex now stands in its place (above). Public ceremonies were performed at the house until 1972. LaVey lost ownership of the house in 1991 as the result of a court settlement resulting from his separation from Diane Hegarty, but LaVey was allowed to reside at the Black House until his death.
Also don’t call the house a mansion because historians will argue that the home was a decent sized cottage built for a single family.
The Church of Satan still lives on but the home of which is resides is gone with the winds of time. And now that you know this key bit of history, share it with your friends at parties—it’ll be a good party trick.
