The High Priestess of Blood: Inside Mexico’s Vampiric Human Sacrificing Cult of San Louis Potosi

Dive into the chilling story of Magdalena Solís, the self-proclaimed "High Priestess of Blood," whose twisted reign of terror in 1960s Mexico remains one of the most horrifying cult tales in history. In this gripping episode of Codega's Codex of Curiosities, Rye the Codega unpacks the sinister events that unfolded in the remote village of Yerba Buena, where deceit, manipulation, and ritualistic bloodshed turned a desperate community into the stage for unthinkable crimes. Joining Rye is Blake Stark, the creator of an evocative graphic novel inspired by this shocking case. Together, they explore the dark origins of the cult, led by the manipulative Hernandez brothers, and how Magdalena Solís’s rise to power transformed the group’s distorted religious promises into a nightmare of human sacrifices. Through Blake’s storytelling lens, we delve into the psychological grip of cults, the role of Aztec symbolism in their practices, and the devastating impact on both victims and perpetrators.

Uncover how this case sheds light on the dangers of unchecked belief systems, the use of fear as a weapon, and the eerie parallels to other historical cult phenomena. Blake offers a behind-the-scenes look at his creative process, the challenges of adapting such a grim story to graphic form, and the broader implications of the Solís cult’s horrific legacy.
