Johnny sets his L.A. home on fire, arrested for Arson—pleads not guilty by
reason of insanity and is sentenced to 2 years in a mental institution.
Master tapes for “Black Fever” destroyed in the fire.
>1991-1993:  Johnny spends two years in Baronhill Mental Health Center in
Southern California.  Johnny spends much of this time antagonizing the
staff and becomes a favorite victim of their abuse, which at the high end
includes arranging for Johnny to undergo unnecessary electroshock therapy.

Don't forget the hydrobath, either.  That's pretty unpleasant.  (Wait --
probably phased out by 1991.)  

Also, no one gets "sentenced" to 2 years in an institution.  If you get
institutionalized, the sentence is "until we feel we can let you out."
Now, in the Reagan years there was a huge move to kick people out of
institutions, but only their nonpaying customers.  If he got out after
antagonizing the staff, it's because either (1) someone on the outside
hired a lawyer and a shrink to prove him sane or (2) he made SUCH an ass of
himself that they decided to "cure" him just to get rid of him.  

>In 1982, Hate broke up (because all the original members except Johnny
were dead) and Johnny’s longtime girlfriend and fellow occult enthusiast,
Lilly Blade left him to join a Christian Cult.  Johnny took to alcohol and
spent most of the money he’d made pursuing weird and mostly pointless
occult oddities, recording music when the urge struck him.

Was St. Cecil involved?  This seems like a St. Cecil move.

The Greek Underworld kicks ass. It's like "Six Flags Over Psychotic
Depression," and Cerberus is the Ultra Twister.
