Summary of the satanic panic: In response to allegations of attacks by satanic cultists stereotypically involving children and corrupt daycare center staff, there was a massive moral panic where people went berserk over anything they considered blasphemous or depicted cults and demons, and it allegedly resulted in vandalism of stores selling targeted materials, extremist protests, vandalism of personal property such as the targeted materials, brawling, domestic violence, child abuse, fighting between school staff and parents who do not believe in the moral panic, and even false police reports and attacks by crooked cops.

Known victims of this bullshit include D&D which became infamous for getting hit the worse out of everything thanks to Patrica Pauling, as well as bands such as KISS.

As for the aftermath, it caused christophobia to spike within the tabletop community as puritan conservatives were leading the charge, and it also was considered one of the many puricon scandals that caused far left extremism to grow just like the near century long violent media moral panic, and it never went down until the regressive left got exposed via gamergate.
