Epstein Survivor Lisa Phillips Alleges “Satanic Rituals” on Little St. James in Explosive New Testimony
NEW YORK – 10 March 2026
In a 90-minute video interview released yesterday by the Epstein Victims’ Legal Advocacy Network, survivor Lisa Phillips has provided one of the most graphic and emotionally charged accounts to date of her alleged experiences on Jeffrey Epstein’s private island, Little St. James, claiming she witnessed what she describes as “satanic rituals” involving sexual abuse, bloodletting and occult symbolism.
Phillips, now 32, says she was trafficked to the island multiple times between 2015 and 2018 when she was 21–24 years old. She alleges that on at least five occasions she was forced to participate in or observe ceremonies in which participants wore black robes, chanted in Latin, and used animal blood and candles arranged in pentagram patterns. She states that Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell were present at every ritual she witnessed, and that several high-profile individuals were also in attendance.
In the interview Phillips names three men—two American financiers and one European aristocrat—who she says were regular participants. She does not accuse them of direct physical abuse in the rituals but claims they were “treated as honoured guests” and that Epstein referred to them as “the inner circle.” All three individuals have previously been mentioned in Epstein flight logs or address books but have never been charged with any crime related to the financier’s activities.
Phillips breaks down several times during the recording, particularly when describing a ceremony she says took place in 2017 in which a young woman was brought to the centre of a circle and subjected to what she calls “mock crucifixion” followed by sexual assault by multiple men. “They called it a ceremony,” she says through tears. “I called it living hell.”
The testimony has been submitted as part of ongoing civil litigation against Epstein’s estate and is being reviewed by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York. A spokesperson for the office declined to comment on whether the allegations have prompted any new criminal investigation.
Epstein’s estate and Maxwell’s legal team have not responded to requests for comment on Phillips’s specific claims. Representatives for the three men named in the interview issued statements categorically denying any participation in rituals or abuse, calling the allegations “entirely fabricated” and “designed to generate media attention and financial gain.”
The interview has already generated more than 22 million views across platforms and has reignited debate over the extent of occult or ritualistic elements in Epstein’s crimes. While survivor testimony has consistently described systematic sexual abuse and trafficking, no previous public account has alleged organised satanic ceremonies. Some experts have cautioned that trauma can distort memory and that ritualistic language may reflect symbolic rather than literal practices.
Survivors’ advocates, however, say Phillips’s account should not be dismissed. “Whether the rituals were genuinely occult or simply theatrical cruelty, the effect was the same,” said attorney Sigrid McCawley, who represents several Epstein victims. “Power was being exercised over terrified young women in a way that was designed to break them psychologically.”
As more Epstein documents continue to be unsealed and survivor voices grow louder, the Paris-based mansion, the New Mexico ranch and Little St. James itself remain focal points of investigation. Phillips ends her testimony with a direct plea: “They thought no one would believe me. They were wrong.”
