A Fascination with Darkness | M.P. Pellicer

What would you do if your 8-year-old daughter was inspired by the movie The Omen, and waited with bated breath for the sequel titled Damien?


The girl's name was Kim Goytia, and she lived in Sacramento, California. When The Omen premiered in 1976, viewing the film kicked off a fascination with the devil. She went on to collect several copies of the novel, based on the screenplay. Two years later, the sequel Damien was released, and she was still enthralled with the dark side. According to her mother Carol Sommers, her daughter went goth before it became a thing, dressing in black, growling like an animal, and performing satanic rituals in her room.
