In a response to a review of his book Blood on the Altar: The Secret History of the World’s Most Dangerous Secret Society, author Craig Heimbichner mentions several prominent members of Ordo Templi Orientis, the order of the Temple of the East, or the Order of Oriental Templars, including John Carradine, father of the recently deceased David Carradine who allegedly planned to investigate and disclose secret societies.

Martin P. Starr, author of The Unknown God: W.T. Smith and the Thelemites, also claims the elder Carradine was a member of Aleister Crowley’s co-masonic Ordo Templi Orientis.

In Sex and Rockets: The Occult World or Jacks Parson, John Carter and Robert Anton Wilson write that Carradine is said to have read poetry at the opening of the Agapé Lodge of the OTO in Pasadena, California.

OTO draws from the traditions of the Freemasonic, Rosicrucian and Illuminist movements of the 18th and 19th centuries, the crusading Knights Templars of the Middle Ages and early Christian Gnosticism and the Pagan Mystery Schools.

It originated in Germany or Austria between 1895 and 1906. Its apparent founder was Carl Kellner, a wealthy Austrian industrialist and high-grade Mason. Anglo-German tantric occultist Theodor Reuss took control of the OTO after Kellner’s death. Reuss was involved with the Bavarian Order of Illuminati and was also the Grand Master of the Swedenborgian Rite of Freemasonry in Germany. He admitted the English occultist Aleister Crowley to the Order in 1910 and appointed him as the National Grand Master General of the Great Britain and Ireland chapters.

On June 6, Infowars reported on comments made by CNN correspondent Jerry Penacoli on the Larry King Show. Penacoli said the death of John Carradine’s son David “was abnormal, the death was not natural” and the actor “was very interested in investigating and disclosing secret societies.” Carradine was found dead last week in a Bangkok luxury hotel suite.

Carradine’s brother Keith met with with the FBI on Friday to encourage a federal probe, according to family attorney Mark Geragos.

Penacoli says a filmmaker and director named Damian Chapa, who worked with Carradine, said he “believes that there was foul play” in Carradine’s death. “And he said that no one else knows this but his family — Carradine’s family and friends and people closest to him, but David was very interested in investigating and disclosing secret societies. So whatever that means…”

It means you can end up dead.

During a segment that aired on the Larry King Show, CNN correspondent Jerry Penacoli says the death of David Carradine “was abnormal, the death was not natural. And the evidence shows that there were ropes tied around David’s neck and around his genitalia and that they were tied together. And that there is a report — several reports that there were ropes tied around his wrists.”

“It can’t be a suicide, necessarily. But what I find puzzling is that they’re saying that there’s no evidence that there was any other person or persons in the room. Well, you can’t tie your — your own wrists together and then have what happened happen. So it’s mysterious. And it just keeps getting deeper.”

Larry King turns to Mark Geragos, attorney for the actor’s brother, Keith Carradine. “Did he seem like he was depressed?”

“Not at all,” responds Geragos. “He was very excited. This was, apparently, a short movie stint over there. He was looking forward to getting back here. He just got a car. He’s a car nut. Had just been — being a fellow car nut, I can tell you, you don’t go out and buy a car right before you’re going to off yourself, generally. He was excited about coming back and had talked to his wife the night before.”

Later in the segment, Penacoli says a filmmaker and director named Damian Chapa, who worked with Carradine, said he “believes that there was foul play” in Carradine’s death. “And he said that no one else knows this but his family — Carradine’s family and friends and people closest to him, but David was very interested in investigating and disclosing secret societies.” (Emphasis added.)

“So whatever that means…”

It means you can end up dead.

Addendum

Carradine’s family has asked the FBI to investigate if the actor died from auto-erotic asphyxiation or murder.
