Was H.P. Lovecraft indeed practicing Black Magic? Its pouring outside the studio tonight. It dark, its cold and its downright nasty out there. This is the perfect night to settle in your most comfy chair. Get the coffee going get the tea going or get a beverage of choice. Tonight we look at Black magic up-close and personal. Tonight we look at the possibilities of H. P. Lovecraft's works being used in Black Magic, Anton La Vey's Satanism, Voodoo and Wicca and of course Aleister Crowley amongst others. Our guest tonight is John L Steadman and he is author of a brand new book called "H.P. Lovecraft The master of horror's influence on modern occultism."
