Back-story Spoilers!!!!!! The Mcalister Clan made the trip from Ireland with the
Janes and other important clans. The clans where mystics and masters of
the dark arts. There was much division among the clans related to the
luciferian religion. The religion it self is not considered bad but
rather dangerous if used by the uninitiated. The Mcalisters began using
there skills like parlor tricks early in the 19th century until the
great rift. It was the council of the elders that the Clan was banned
from the practice of black magic. Mcalisters practiced in secret until
the gifted RED JOHN appeared. Mcalister is the figurative embodiment of
the great dragon with the Blake society being the true force of the
cult. RED JOHN merely practiced human sacrifices as part of his
luciferian religion. RJ took offense when Jane spoke callously of his
religion and sacrificed his wife and child as act of contrition and
vengeance. The FBI has been looking into child and adult abduction and
sacrifices cases since the 60's but very closely since 80's. The Red
John ascended master period. Stiles was practicing the white version and
RJ the black.
