ANSWER
The above answer is very accurate and coves alot of ground. I am just going to add a little more information. This type of abuse can occur in cults. These cults vary in size and what kind of ritual abuse they do. There usually is a high priest/priestess that is the leader of this type of cult. These type of cults can be quite violent and extremely dangerous. Also these cults can be trans-generational which means they can be passed on from one generation to another. These types of cults do exist but not is much known about how widespread the these cults are? Where they are located? How they operate? What type of people join these groups? etc...

What is Satanic Ritual Abuse?
NOTE: Please keep in mind that the words "Ritual Abuse" do not usually refer to 'Satanic Ritual Abuse'. Or in other words, "Ritual Abuse" usually refers to somebody abused for any religion other than Satanism. Any form of Satanic Ritual Abuse that might have taken place is always (and should always) be termed under Satanic Ritual Abuse or SRA for short. Also please be especially careful when examining any facts or figures and make sure that they are being applied to Satanic Ritual Abuse or SRA and not 'Ritual abuse' or 'RA'.Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA) is a subset of Ritual Abuse (RA).Satanic ritual abuse exists all over the world. There have been reports, journal articles, web pages and criminal convictions of these horrific crimes against children and adults.Ritual abuse is defined in the Dictionary of Psychology as "A method of control of people of all ages consisting of physical, sexual, and psychological mistreatment through the use of rituals" (Corsini, 1999, p. 848).Young, Sacks, Braun & Watkins (1991) use the term "satanic ritual abuse" to describe ritual abuse associated with satanic worship. Becker and Fröhling (1998) caution that (1) a ritual can be staged to make a victim believe that the ideological background is real, i.e., a child is made to think she has murdered a baby as a sacrifice to Satan or another deity, (2) that whether or not a ritual is staged, the victim is bound into the real or faked belief system of the perpetrator(s).Bottoms, Shaver and Goodman in their 1993 study to evaluate ritual abuse claims found that in 2,292 alleged ritual abuse cases, 15% of the perpetrators in adult cases and 30% of the perpetrators in child cases confessed to the abuse.Ritual Abuse: A Review of Research" by Kathleen Coulborn Faller (1994) In a survey of 2,709 members of the American Psychological Association, it was found that 30 percent of these professionals had seen cases of ritual or religion-related abuse (Bottoms, Shaver & Goodman, 1991). Of those psychologists who have seen cases of ritual abuse, 93 percent believed that the reported harm took place and 93 percent believed that the alleged ritualism occurred.from the Extreme abuse survey : I was ritually abused in a satanic cult - 986 respondents (55%)Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA) was a craze that swept through the globe during the 80's. Literally millions off allegations were made concerning people (usually women and children) being involved in some sort of ritual abuse - this abuse ranged from rape, to mutilations, right through to murder. Out of all these reported cases not one single authentic Satanic Ritual Abuse was subsequently proven.It seems that panic stemmed from "reports from children and adults using therapeutic and questioning techniques now considered illegitimate"."Despite allegations appearing in the United States, Holland, Sweden, New Zealand and Australia, no material evidence has been found to corroborate allegations of organized cult-based abuse that practices human sacrifice and cannibalism.""Two investigations were carried out to assess the evidence for Satanic Ritual Abuse. In the United States, evidence was reported but was based on a flawed methodology with an overly liberal definition of a substantiated case. In the United Kingdom, a government report produced no evidence of Satanic Ritual Abuse, but several examples of false satanists faking rituals to frighten their victims.""With both children and adults, no corroborating evidence has been found for anything except pseudosatanism in which the satanic and ritual aspects were secondary to and used as a cover for sexual abuse.""Official investigations produced no evidence of conspiracies or the slaughter of thousands of babies and children in bloody sacrifices"
