Numerous heavy metal bands scheduled releases of demonic works for the day, including Slayer, which is releasing "Eternal Pyre" and "Dead Skin Mask," The Washington Post reported.

In the King James Bible version of the Book of Revelation 13:18 says 666 is "the number of the beast," with some believers claiming it is the date Satan will come to Earth to launch Armageddon. Bob Hainey, chief of communications for the D.C. Lottery said the pick of 666 for Tuesday's draw would likely sell out. "Even Satan can lose playing the lottery," Hainey told the Post. "If it comes up 660, we're taking his money. Or her money. We don't discriminate."
