Dark Souls & Elden Ring Lore Exposed: Hidden Occult Messages, Gnosticism & More
The Dark Truth Behind FromSoftware's Souls Games – A Christian Perspective on Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Elden Ring & More
Former Soulsborne lore enthusiast breaks down the occult symbolism, Gnostic themes, alchemical references, and hidden spiritual influences in FromSoftware games. From Demon's Souls and Dark Souls to Bloodborne, Sekiro, and Elden Ring (including Shadow of the Erdtree), this video explores how Hidetaka Miyazaki's storytelling draws from real-world occultism, Aleister Crowley, duality ("as above so below"), false light, and anti-Christian motifs.
I used to be deep into Souls lore — Praise the Sun, Artorias, the Furtive Pygmy, the Erdtree, and more. But after encountering Jesus Christ, I began seeing the spiritual red flags. This is my testimony and a call for discernment: Can we separate "just a game" from the worldview it promotes?
