The Unholy Crusade: Part Two

As World War II spiraled toward its violent end, the Nazi obsession with relics, ritual, and redemption reached terrifying new heights. In the final three episodes of our Grail War series, we go deeper into the rituals of Wewelsburg Castle, where SS leaders performed bloodline ceremonies and solstice rites in the shadow of the Black Sun. Beneath the floors, prisoners died constructing the temple. Above, Himmler and his inner circle dreamed of a new religion—one rooted not in salvation, but supremacy. As the Reich collapsed, documents were burned, relics buried, and entire wings of the castle destroyed. But Wewelsburg’s most sinister chamber survived. And in the decades that followed, its symbols and myths were reborn—on fringe message boards, in neo-Nazi movements, and in the dark corners of conspiracy culture. Because the most powerful relic… is the one never found. 💌 Got thoughts or theories?
