John Lennon’s Pact With Satan
The Beatles’ success and influence were immeasurable, extending beyond music to culture and society as a whole. How did they do it: talent? Luck? Nope, a deal with Lucifer.
A new book called The Lennon Prophecy unveils the sinister secret of the Beatles’ success: a pact which John Lennon made with the devil, which granted him exactly twenty years of unimaginable fame, fortune, and power, followed by his untimely death.
The book begins with a well-known remark Lennon made to his friend Tony Sheridan in the mid-1960s: “I’ve sold my soul to the Devil.”
Author Joseph Niezgoda then pinpoints December 27, 1960, a night on which the Beatles played at the Town Hall Ball Room in Litherland, England, as the eve on which twenty-year-old John Lennon, desperate to be “more famous than Elvis,” sold his soul to Satan … obviously, the Beatles’ music, lyrics, and album art are laden with “clues.”
