Tarot of the Unconscious by Aliza Einhorn
I recently was thrilled to receive a review copy of Tarot of the Unconscious from the publisher, Weiser Books. Let me be up front and honest, I have followed the author, Aliza Einhorn, for quite some time on social media and I have always been intrigued by her work, having read both The Little Book of Saturn and A Mystical Practical Guide to Magic. She is thoughtful but approachable, with a very…

Everybody Needs the Light
I listened to Marco Visconti’s account of his contact with a Non-Human Intelligence this morning. You can listen to it HERE. Inspired by his account, I thought I would share a story from my own misadventures. — .:. — “I know how it feels ’cause I have slipped throughTo the very depths of my soul…” — Jones, Page, Plant, In the Light In the late 1980s, my grandmother had moved into a trailer…

Haunted Hinterlands
All our backyards are haunted, filled with ghosts, spirits, elementals, and esoteric anomalies. We traverse these spaces, all too often, oblivious to the wonders that abound just beyond our perception. An oft repeated phrase is that “the sleeper must awaken”. One should strive to rekindle the sense of wonderment so easily squashed once we reach adulthood… to dream while awake.

High Strangeness
I’ve been around long enough that a discernible pattern has taken shape, one that’s been teased for decades. Hell, from the very beginning, it’s just that we were too easily distracted. Each paranormal anomaly has been isolated and pored over — you’ve got Bigfoot over here, ghosts over there, UFOs flitting about like cosmic fireflies. Investigators and hobbyists catalog them, label them, and file…

Masks of the Illuminati by RAW
A trickster god is a mythological figure who uses deception, humor, and chaos to disrupt order, expose hidden truths, and challenge the boundaries between good and evil. Subjectively speaking. If there ever was a living embodiment of the trickster, it was Robert Anton Wilson, a writer I first discovered from his co-authored Illuminatus! Trilogy, but subsequently consumed most of his works, such…

Magical Theatre (All the Universe is a Stage)
“Psychology destroys the mystery, this kind of magic quality.” — David Lynch Magick is not merely a trick of the mind or a playful illusion conjured by human perception. It is a fundamental aspect of the universe itself—a language spoken through the archetypes that serve as the very blueprint of reality. These archetypes are not fleeting symbols born of psychology, but the living, breathing…
Bark at the Moon
You’ve heard the tale of my run-in with unnatural wolves in the haunted hinterlands of the Mississinewa. No? You can read it HERE. We’re coming up on the 40th anniversary of that night, which, gave birth to decades long research into shapeshifters in Indiana lore. We were in the land of the Manitou, as later Miamis called it, that area along the Mississinewa where the spirit of the land was…

16th Annual Occult Detective Awards
Have I really been at this 16 years? Without question, it has been a labor of love. For me, the Occult Detective genre, seen through the lens of fact and fiction, is an all-consuming passion. This year’s recipients are more than worthy of the acknowledgement. These selections are based on media released in 2025. Obviously I couldn’t watch or read everything, so if you know of something that…
Somerset
Occult Detective Bob Freeman presents SOMERSET, a paranormal series documenting Weird Trails Investigations’ exploration into the heart of high strangeness that lies in the ruins of a displaced town in rural Indiana. Beneath the tranquil surface of the Mississinewa Reservoir, something stirs — the ghosts of Somerset past, and the ancient spirits that call the Mississinewa their home. Somerset,…
Pagan Threat: Charlie Kirk & the Rise of a New Satanic Panic
I have watched with a growing sense of unease as the familiar spectre of the Satanic Panic reemerges—cloaked in new rhetoric and fueled by a potent fusion of fundamental Christian fervor and political manipulation. The latest incarnation of this moral hysteria seems less about genuine concern and more about consolidating power, marginalizing alternative spiritualities, and stoking fear among the…
The Art of Magick
Magick is a deeply personal and transformative art form rooted in the exploration of the hidden energies and symbolic correspondences that underpin reality. Through its practice you are able to immerse yourself into the unseen forces of the universe—drawing upon archetypes, consciousness, and the subconscious—to effect change both inwardly and outwardly. Magick is the process of aligning…
The Last Writes of Robert Rubin
The premise of LAST WRITES is simple. Our guests face their final rest, but before Death claims them they are granted a few parting earthly pleasures, the memories of which will travel with them into the great unknown. What makes these questions appealing and insightful for me is that these are not necessarily our guests favorite things, but those they most want to experience one last time before…
