Original post: The satanic black mass planned for Monday night has been cancelled, according to the Harvard Crimson. Organizers tried to find an alternative location after a Harvard University student group agreed to move the ceremony off of campus, but could not find a suitable location, according to the school paper.

The Harvard Extension Cultural Studies Club had planned to perform a re-enactment of the ceremony on in the basement of Memorial Hall Monday night with the help of a satanic temple, according to the Harvard Crimson. That drew immediate and repeated condemnation from the Catholic Church. The Archdiocese of Boston planned a prayer vigil and procession to St. Paul’s Church in response to the black mass.
Protesters were out in force Monday night, holding up signs condemning the planned black mass.
