On July 15, 2000, Mike Hanson covertly infiltrated one of America's most mysterious gatherings, the Bohemian Grove. This exclusive retreat has drawn some of the nation's most powerful businessmen, bankers, politicians, and influential figures to its secluded forested enclave north of San Francisco for over a century.
Hanson’s incursion allowed him to witness a ritual later described with an almost apocalyptic fervor, labeling it an “ancient Canaanite, Luciferian, Babylon mystery religion ceremony.” What he saw was the Cremation of Care, an elaborate initiation rite that marks the beginning of the Bohemian Club's annual summer retreat.

Upon their arrival at Bohemian Grove, members are welcomed with a sumptuous open-air dinner, nostalgic speeches, and a procession of torches and hooded figures. This night marks the commencement of their two-week escape away from the prying eyes of the world.
As twilight descends, the ceremony begins. Participants follow a hooded procession bearing an effigy, the so-called “Dull Care,” to an artificial lake. This effigy, a cloth-wrapped wooden skeleton, symbolizes the cares and woes of life.
The procession, filled with mournful music and solemn pageantry, heads toward an altar dominated by a colossal 30-foot owl statue, Bohemia’s emblem of wisdom.
The ritual, which dates back to 1881, has evolved into a satirical yet deeply symbolic performance led by a high priest. The effigy is set ablaze amid chants, songs, and invocations, culminating in a spectacular fireworks display. The burning of Dull Care represents a temporary banishment of the participants' anxieties, allowing them to indulge in carefree revelry.

Despite the bemusing nature of the performances, Bohemian Grove’s secrecy and its members' significant political and economic clout have always fueled suspicion and speculation. The ritualistic burning of Care may seem frivolous, but it serves a deeper psychological purpose for those who partake...
