The term chapel perilous first appeared in Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur (1485) as the setting for an adventure in which sorceress Hellawes unsuccessfully attempts to seduce Sir Lancelot. T. S. Eliot used it symbolically in "The Waste Land" (1922). Dorothy Hewett took The Chapel Perilous as the title for her autobiographical play, in which she uses "the framework of the Arthurian legend, Sir Lancelot, to create a theatrical quest of romantic and epic proportions".
The term as used in literature is explicated in detail by Jessie L. Weston in her book From Ritual to Romance (1920). It is defined by Thomas C. Foster as "the dangerous enclosure that is known in the study of traditional quest romances." He cites the plot of the book Crying of Lot 49 (1966) as an example.
"Chapel perilous" is also a term referring to a psychological state in which an individual cannot be certain whether they have been aided or hindered by some force outside the realm of the natural world, or whether what appeared to be supernatural interference was a product of their own imagination. It was used by the late writer and philosopher Robert Anton Wilson (1932–2007) in his book Cosmic Trigger (1977). According to Wilson, being in this state leads the subject to become either paranoid or an agnostic. In his opinion there is no third way.

A door-to-door salesman, Robbin paid an unexpected visit to Levi Gold. This visit made Levi to confront his true mystical calling, as well as the nature of reality itself.
Chapel Perilous received mostly positive reviews from critics. Film Pulse scored the film 7.5 out of 10 and said that "Chapel Perilous is the type of short film that leaves you wanting more by the end. It doesn't lay all its cards on the table, and only gives you the bare minimum amount of information. The viewer is left to draw his or her own conclusions about the craziness that just transpired, but I can't help but think how much fun this could be as a feature film." Scott Beggs of Film School Rejects, praised the film by saying that "it explores some radical, hilarious territory while grabbing you by the jaw. A literal crowd pleaser."

Robert Anton Wilson who coined the term Chapel Perilous. This is when something happens in your life and it all begins to fit together and make sense, too much sense. Because it's coming from the exterior and it seems to either mean that you're losing your mind or you are somehow the central focus of a universal conspiracy that is leading you toward some unimaginable breakthrough. Along the way to the mystery lie the realms of loving everybody, moving fields of geometric color, past lives, you name it. But these are just milestones on the way. When you finally get to "the thing", the way you will know that you've arrived is that you will be struck dumb with wonder. That you will say "my God, this is impossible. This is inherently impossible. This is what impossible was invented to talk...

Scarred, emotion infiltrates my soul
Suffer, the hierarchy takes control
Insane, no matter where you run, you die
Breaking the chain
In your eyes I see a void
Pain, the depths of terror spent
Haste, your friend when no one cares
A wraith of evanescent hope
In your eyes I see a void
Pain, the depths of terror spent
Take this chance to fight or die
I can taste your fucking lies
Scarred, emotion infiltrates my soul
Suffer, the hierarchy takes control
Insane, no matter where you run, you die
Breaking the chain
Scream, bleed, dream, fail
Scream, bleed, scream
Free from torture, recite the pain
Did you like it? Are you proud?
It wasn't what you thought it was gonna be
It wasn't what you thought it was gonna be
It wasn't what you thought it was gonna be
It wasn't what you thought it was gonna be
Scream, bleed, dream, fail
Scarred, emotion infiltrates my soul
Suffer, the hierarchy takes control
Insane, no matter where you run, you die
Breaking the chain
Scarred, emotion infiltrates my soul
Suffer, the hierarchy takes control
Insane, no matter where you run, you die
Breaking the chain
Scream, bleed, dream, fail
Scream, bleed, dream, fail
Scream, bleed, dream, fail
