Satanic Panic!

From the sixties to the nineties parents worried messages hidden in rock albums would make their children do drugs and worship the devil.

Bryan Gardiner unveils the history behind the backmasking panic and Curiosity Daily’s Ashley Hamer explains why our brains hear hidden messages... even when they’re not there!
