Monastery of Celaeno

Monastery of Celaeno

The Monastery of Celaeno is located on the island of Sicily in Italy. It was built by Aleister Crowley, one of the most notorious magicians in the world, who was regarded as the most - in the 1920s. Though small, the monastery was a hub for secret satanic worship ceremonies around the globe, adorned with eerie, dark-toned murals.

The Monastery of Celaeno was founded by Crowley himself and quickly became a stronghold for the free-spirited 0 community. Rumor has it that Crowley built this place to indulge in unrestricted 0. Now abandoned, the monastery’s walls still bear vivid murals. The figures depicted have gloomy, indifferent expressions, and one can almost imagine their eerie laughter — truly terrifying. Visiting on a dark, windy night and coming face to face with these smiling murals might just give you chills and send you running for your life.
