Assylum

Assylum is a U.S. fetish studio operated by Two-Flame Media LLC. Industry coverage places the production brand's launch in August 2014, which is the relevant studio date even though the Assylum.com domain itself is much older.

Lawrence Neil, who works under the name Dr. Mercies, has been identified in industry coverage as the owner and producer behind the company. Early coverage also documented Two-Flame Media's management of the Assylum site and related operations.

The studio established a recognizable identity around specialized fetish production and performer interviews, and it adopted 4K production equipment during its early years.

Assylum remains operational: in 2025 the company announced a new age-verification system across its member sites. The profile therefore records the active studio and Two-Flame Media relationship rather than dating the brand from its 2001 domain registration.
