Warlocks Motorcycle Club (Pennsylvania)

The Warlocks Motorcycle Club, often referred to as the Warlocks MC, is a one-percenter outlaw motorcycle club founded in Pennsylvania in 1967. The club originated in Philadelphia and has since expanded to include chapters in other states, primarily along the East Coast.

The Warlocks MC is traditionally associated with the one-percenter lifestyle, a term used to describe motorcycle clubs who identify as being outside the laws of mainstream society. This often involves engaging in activities that are considered illegal or socially unacceptable. Law enforcement agencies have, at times, linked the Warlocks MC to various criminal activities, including drug trafficking, weapons violations, and violence.

The club's insignia typically features a stylized mythical warlock figure, often depicted riding a motorcycle or otherwise in a threatening pose. The colors of the Warlocks MC are generally understood to be orange and black. Members typically wear leather or denim vests, known as "cuts," displaying the club's patch and other identifying symbols.

The Warlocks MC maintains a hierarchical structure, with national and regional officers overseeing the activities of individual chapters. Prospective members undergo a rigorous vetting process, which often includes a probationary period to demonstrate loyalty and commitment to the club. Like other outlaw motorcycle clubs, the Warlocks MC values brotherhood, loyalty, and respect. They are often involved in charitable activities within their communities, although these efforts are sometimes overshadowed by their reputation for criminal activity.
