Overview

Witches are creatures of magic. They cast spells, heal, and foretell the future. What you might not know is that Witches can also commune with the spirits of the dead.

In The Witches' Book of the Dead, modern-day Salem Warlock Christian Day shows how the spirits of our beloved dead can be summoned to perform such tasks as helping you to discover hidden opportunities, influence the minds of others, seduce the object of your affection, and even reach into the dreams of the unwary. According to legend, the Spirits of the dead can confer magical talents, fame, love, and wealth on those brave enough to summon them.

The Witches' Book of the Dead explores the enduring relationship between witches and the dead and teaches rituals and incantations to help readers open doorways to the spirit world.

Topics include:

  • Legendary Witches who have raised the dead, including The Witch of Endor, Circe, and Erichtho
  • Creating ancestral altars and building relationships with spirits
  • The tools of Necromancy: the bronze dagger, yew wand, iron keys, graveyard dust, the offering cauldron, spirit powders, the human skull, and more
  • Methods of spirit contact, including automatic writing, scrying mirrors, spirit boards, pendulums, and spirit mediumship
  • The ancient arts of necromancy as a method of conjuring the dead to assist in magic
  • Ridding yourself of unwanted spirits using rituals of cleansing, banishing and exorcism
  • Ghost hunting techniques that combine psychic wisdom with modern technology
  • Communing with the dead in dreams
  • Sacred holidays and powerful celebrations of the dead
  • Resources on where to ethically obtain the tools of the trade
  • An overview of the feared deities of the Underworld
  • Rituals, recipes, exercises, and more!

Dare to walk between the worlds with Christian Day as he guides you across the River Styx into the shadowy realms where the dead long to connect with us once more!

Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
Day, a self-proclaimed warlock based in Salem, Massachusetts, here discusses the history of necromancy and its relationship to witchcraft. Topics of interest include opening the doorway between this world and the spirit world, constructing an altar of the dead, banishing and exorcism, methods of spirit contact, speaking with the dead, the history and nature of necromancy, oracular necromancy, necromantic magic, dreaming the dead, ghost hunting, and celebrating festivals for the dead. Three appendixes have recipes for necromancy incense, spirit powder, anointing oil, and food for the dead; deities of the dead; and various resources. Written with confidence and familiarity, the book's prose is straightforward and easy to understand. VERDICT Of interest to individuals interested in occult practices and necromancy.—Bradford Lee Eden, Valparaiso Univ. Lib., IN

    A Must have in EVERY Witches Library

    This book is right up there with Mastering Witchcraft by Paul A Huson! Its written in a similar fashion and is just as educating. As witches and Warlocks we are all necromancers and throughout time I personally have a decrease in our connection to the dead (ie. only honoring them on Halloween.)This book will get you in touch with the beloved dead in a way like no other book before it has. you will learn how to form a bond between them and what you can do for them so that they can do things for you. I personally would rather seek help from my relatives that have passed over than always going to the gods. they are busy beings and the are taking care of all their children. where as the dead are always able to aid their loved ones here on this earth. I rate this book 10/5.
