I have to wonder, what definition of success could I possibly give you that would satisfy you? Probably none. You clearly seem to think Satanism is some social, dress-up club for atheists or something. I'm not really sure, but just understand that this is totally wrong and comes from a place of complete ignorance. You're clearly uninformed on the subject, or thoroughly misinformed. I'm not sure which and couldn't care less.

The fact that you wonder if Satanism "provide[s any] values" shows you know nothing about the entire movement that you're trying to discredit. How insanely arrogant.
If you had the slightest idea of what you are talking about, I'd be willing to have a conversation about Satanism.
But I'm convinced that nothing I could tell you about the philosophy would change your mind at all. You're clearly entrenched in your position, which is totally and completely uninformed. If you're comfortable with that, then bravo. That makes this another clear example of disingenuous, uninformed nonsense from you.
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
