Inside Epstein’s Grand Temple
For years, we have seen the ornate temple that stood atop the highest point on Little St. James Island, the onetime home of Jeffrey Epstein in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Now, James O’Keefe, through the O’Keefe Media Group, takes us inside the temple.
The temple boasts a celestial ceiling — paintings of the gods and goddesses once believed to have adorned the heavens.
The entrance to the temple was guarded by two statues of ichthyocentaurs, or sea centaurs. These were creatures in Greek mythology that had human heads and torsos affixed to fish tails. The Epstein statues also had horse legs, so they embodied another Greek creature — the hippocampi.
The temple did not contain an evident elevator, nor any signs of the grand piano it was once said to have housed. O’Keefe says he talked with a piano tuner, however, and the man verified he had worked on the piano inside the temple on at least two occasions.
