Founder of LSD, Laith Samael Haidar is a Lebanese, ex-child soldier who migrated to the US in December 2016.

After four years in Brooklyn, Haidar was ready to leave the city and focus on building up their contemporaries while fulfilling their childhood dream of land they could call their own without the fear of it ever being taken away through violence and prejudice.

The 8 acre property named after Dante’s Inferno, “The 9 Circles” in Worcester in September 2021 saw the birth of Laith Samael Depot, a company dedicated to teaching the life skills that Haidar accumulated over a painful journey, so other ostracized communities that are barred education to self sustainable economic participation.

To this end, LSD provides several tiered apprenticeships and private lessons at sliding scale to those wanting to learn basic farming to survival methodology.

The 9 Circles is a pagan practice safe location and welcomes all worshippers of any entity to come gather. Haidar being a Canaanite necromancer from their Bedouin origins, provides shamanic consultations and ritual remedies upon request. The property hosts several festivities throughout the year to celebrate the cycle of life and decay we all participate in.
