A black mass is a religious service for the belief of satanism.
it consists of the same practices in worship that people preform
in a regular church service only they are done in a way that is considered to be sacrilegious and an abomination towards Christ
ie the upside down cross. the the lords prayer backwards.
stuff of that nature.
and when possible they hold the services in a actual church of christ

Yes, there is such a thing. It is more or less a religious service for Satanists. Here's a link for more info

a black mass is a mock of the catholic mass. it's done by satanist (church of satan). they don't belive in god and don't think too highly of the intellects of people who do.
most of the ceremonies are done very rarely. some just for the publicity and as a way to show their distain.

Black Mass is a Church of Satan event where non-believers (ie atheists) who enjoy the ritual of mass gather to partake without having to actually incorporate god into it.
Yes people really do it.
To be clear. The Church of Satan is only called that because they are anti-christian, not because they actually believe in Satan. They are Atheists who enjoy the rituals of religion and feel like the teachings in the bible are bad, wrong and dangerous.

Satanists do perform a "black mass," but it's nothing like what is indicated by Christian propaganda.

Are you reffering to the matter that some scientists are trying to prove exists in the area we call space?

Dont worry about it. Yes they do it. Hell is real and its a one way ticket. I'd forget the black mass idea and talk to someone about your anger. Its not uncommon, you are loved and not alone!
May you be richly blessed,
David
