To say I'm obsessed with Sabat Magazine is to put it lightly...I don't know what life was before Sabat came along, and I'm impatiently waiting to hear what editor Elizabeth Krohn, i.e. the newly anointed goddess of print, has planned next. The Sabat Magazine Instagram page is a reflection of what the witchcraft orientated magazine offers. It's… Continue reading Intriguing Instagrammers : Sabat Magazine
I ritualistically put some water on the stove to make some tea, tidied the shit off my desk (the kitchen table) and lit two white candles in preparation for writing this review of Sabat Magazine : The Mother Issue.

I launched the first collection last Sunday and am making preparations for this Sunday's release. Today I lowered the… Continue reading Yuletide At Wyrd Words & Effigies : Katie Metcalfe Photography Gift List

Since my first encounter I've kept a keen eye on the inter-web, scooping up links to squirrel away for the day when the number on my bank balance slip isn't so feeble. Burial Ground - From… Continue reading Wearing October : My Favourite Broomstick Necklaces
I've said it before and I know I'll say it again, and again, and again...it's literally impossible for Bill Crisafi to do any wrong. The most recent drawings that he's gifted to the world - and which you can now buy to hang in your home - are impeccable homages to three buildings of historical… Continue reading Bill Crisafi : Historic Salem
My friends on Facebook are clued into my psyche, they know what makes me tick. The other day I was alerted to the publication of Sabat Magazine 2 : The Mother Issue and promptly took myself to investigate. Like its predecessor, Issue 2 is a heavy tome, dense with striking imagery and exquisite texts. It's… Continue reading Sabat Magazine 2 : The Mother Issue
