In 1974, Hunter S. Thompson wrote, “The autumn months are never a calm time in America. There is always a rash of kidnapping and abductions of schoolchildren in the football months.”
Hunter didn't just document the deranged underbelly of America, he helped normalize it.🧵
Hunter is hailed as a cult figure, the Gonzo journalist, the war correspondent on acid. But behind the sunglasses, a more chilling portrait emerges, a man deeply enmeshed in the occult, elite blackmail operations, child abuse networks and ritual sacrifice masquerading as ART.
In another disturbing passage, Hunter writes, “Preteens of both sexes are traditionally seized and grabbed off the streets by gangs of organized perverts who traditionally give them as Christmas gifts to each other to be personal sex slaves and playthings.”
This wasn't fiction, it was REVELATION OF THE METHOD, a confession disguised as black comedy, a hallmark of an elite predator’s game: hide the truth in mockery. Speak plainly, then call it fiction.
In Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, adrenochrome, a psychoactive compound harvested from the adrenal glands at the height of terror, is introduced not as a fictional drug, but as currency used by the elite.
In the film, Thompson's alter ego is handed a vial of the drug by his "Satanist-Freak Lawyer".
The effects? “Makes pure mescaline seem like ginger beer.”
Later in the film, it’s made clear, “There’s only one source for this stuff, the adrenal gland from a living human body.
The audience is supposed to laugh and ritually participate in the visual consumption of trauma.
The film is ritual theatre, no different from the ancient Greek rites or Roman bloodsports.
Art is often used as a veil for initiation.
In Paul Bonacci’s 1993 testimony during the Franklin Cover-Up investigation, he claimed to have been forced to participate in child sex abuse and ritual murder on camera. He mentioned being taken to a ranch in Colorado, where a famous journalist filmed a snuff film.
The Colorado ranch matched descriptions of Owl Farm, Hunter S. Thompson’s infamous compound. This testimony was entered into court, under oath. Bonacci named names, described cameras AND ritual death.
Thompson’s name was never officially cleared.
Even more disturbing: multiple victims and whistleblowers later recanted, went missing or died under suspicious circumstances.
The photographer Rusty Nelson claimed that he once turned down an offer of $50,000 from Hunter to help in the production of a snuff film.
In 1997, Noreen Gosch, mother of missing Iowa boy Johnny Gosch, claimed on record that her son, now grown, visited her and alleged he was kidnapped into an elite pedophile ring.
She later claimed that Hunter was involved in producing pedophilic and/ or snuff films.
People close to Hunter say that he even shot Snuff Films with Jack Nicholson.
Paul Bonacci also alleged, based on Bonacci's description of the surroundings, Hunter filmed may even filmed Snuff Films at the infamous Bohemian Grove.
The Bohemian Club is an elite annual gathering of U.S. presidents, media moguls and others. The central ritual of the Grove? The Cremation of Care, a "mock" child sacrifice to an enormous owl deity known as Moloch.
Bonacci described the Grove to a tee with no prior knowledge.
This was pre-Internet.
Many insiders, including former Grove employees, claim the sacrifices were not always mock. Children were trafficked in. Young boys in costumes served food and, after, "Hunting Parties" would take place.
In the late 1990s and early 2000s, Thompson was hired by various political figures to film “parties” for “insurance purposes.” Others believe he was a Intelligence asset. These parties were alleged to involve underage prostitutes, drugs and powerful politicians.
Thompson was the ideal operator: chaotic, respected and above suspicion. His operation connects directly to what Roy Cohn and Jeffrey Epstein later perfected: a sexual blackmail operation.
Oscar Zeta Acosta, his "lawyer" and real-life Dr. Gonzo, gave Thompson a medallion of Tláloc, the Aztec child-sacrifice god. Thompson wore it daily until his death. Tláloc is the Aztec god of rain and fertility, but he is not just your basic nature deity.
He was fed children, whose tears were seen as sacred nourishment for the gods. Tláloc was the divine face of child sacrifice. The Aztecs believed the more the children cried, the more powerful the ritual. Their pain was a currency of energy, just like adrenochrome is said to be.
So why was the man who made adrenochrome famous in popular culture wearing the symbol of a child-devouring god around his neck?
Truth hidden in PLAIN SIGHT.
Hunter's ranch was filled with Hidden Cameras. He was CONSTANTLY filming.
His assistant, friends, and even his son Juan noted that boxes of VHS tapes and reels were removed from Owl Farm immediately after his death. Not by police but by unnamed men in suits.
What was on those tapes? Blackmail. Snuff Films. Both...?
Hunter “committed suicide” in 2005, reportedly while talking to his wife on the phone. No note. No message. No warning. His body was cremated and fired out of a cannon built by Johnny Depp, in a $3 million ritual attended by Bill Murray, Jack Nicholson, and Sean Penn.
The Cannon was 153 feet tall or 47 meters, the Masonic Compass is set at 47°. A pyramid-shaped monument was, then, erected at the site.
This was not a funeral, it was a pagan ritual.
Hunter S. Thompson was not just a witness to the American nightmare. He was its scribe.
Hunter revealed the truth not to stop it, but to ritually disclose it. Predictive programming is not just a Hollywood phenomenon, it’s a magical technique. It binds the viewer. If they do nothing, they consent.
His life shows one certain paradox, sometimes you can tell the masses a disturbing truth so blatantly that no one will even believe it.
