Chelsea Wolfe: She-God of Luciferian Witches And Other Soul Harvesters At The Regent

Chelsea Wolfe dresses in black. The color simply knows how to fall correctly upon her body. She feels comfortable in black and black feels comfortable on her.

Shortly thereafter, I experienced a momentary blackness and disorientation and a mysterious numbness in my mouth and aching in my jaw.  A bit confused, I put my hand to my mouth and it was instantly
