 Blessed Samhain Wayward Ones! Come in, Come in, warm up by the fire. The forest is full of frightening creatures tonight, so don't dally. Do I have some surprises for you today. It's our anniversary here at Housecraft and we're pulling out all the stops. We'll be conjuring spirits to help us continue our telling of the Tarot from the perspective of the Fool, and explore foraging and mushrooms with Passing Fancy. We'll top it all off with one of my favorite spooky stories, just in time for the Dumb Supper here at the Housecraft Home for Wayward Witches.

Welcome to our very first After Dark edition of Housecraft: The Witching Hour. School is our for the day and I'm chatting with Passing Fancy (instagram @witchinthemidst) and Professor Luna (instagram @loganmaluna) over a smoke behind the garden shed. And we're talking all the things we don't really get to talk about in our regular classes. So to really kick it off a bang, we're diving headfirst into Sex magic and our ideas of male and female energies. THIS IS AN 18+ EPISODE. RATED R MAMA.

We're getting into the major arcana with a whole cast of exciting characters and the hero's journey like you've never heard before as we use alchemy to explore healing from trauma . With a quick trip to the woods to visit Passing Fancy to get into the magical properties of herbs and flowers of course. Welcome to the Witching Hour. 

Warning: this episode contains conversations of trauma. Don't worry though, we warn you first.

Written and Produced by Housecraft Official under the direction of Laurenn Montanio  with writing assistance from Winfield Shaw.

Trigger warning for animal abuse and murderous children.
Welcome back Wayward Ones for our first ever listener's stories told with all of the sinister charm of a childhood fairy tale (Our actress may sound young, but she's a teen with a love of Stephen King and the horror genre. This is not a sweet fairy tale, so proceed with caution) . Then we'll dive into the tale of The Bell Witch, one of the first ghosts in America to admit to murdering a living, breathing, human being. Finally, we'll watch the sun set and discuss the duality of tarot and how to utilize that duality to strengthen your readings. 

A most sincere and heartfelt thanks to my patreon for their continued support. If you’d like to join us and help keep our content going, you can find us at patreon.com/housecraftofficial. An extra special thanks to my talented daughter Gianna for telling her creepy rendition of our listener’s tale “We can Be Friends Now” by Brittany Yates as well as the vocal talents of Justin Day, Kate Flower and the writing talents and Tarot insight of Winfield Shaw. And as always, the talented artists at free sound.org!
