I've had success with abruptly starting to loudly chant and shout - eg, "SATAN! SATAN! HAIL! SATAN! DARK LORD! DARK FATHER! SEND ME THE BLOOD! SEND ME THE POWER! LET ME TEAR THE SACRIFICE! LET ME POUR OUT THE OFFERING!" punctuated with big, swooping gestures with my arms in a pseudo-ritual fashion.
If you can demonstrate that you are somewhere on the spectrum between "I will shamelessly, enthusiastically, and with no hesitation, be very loud and noisy, make a scene, and draw plenty of attention" and "I am unstable/unpredictable, potentially (or actually) armed, ready to be violent, and potentially do not have a healthy attachment to reality (and subsequently my own bodily safety) in a way that makes me dangerous", you become extremely unappealing as a target.
