“The Infernal Vampire Handbook” by D. H. Thorne

Magick Matters

"The first of D.H. Thorne's smaller Grimoires, this book details his practices of Infernal Vampiric Magick, complete with his explanation of what Vampirism is, and how to apply that knowledge in both ritual practice, and Energy manipulation. There are many books illustrating the fantastic and fictional nature of Vampirism. However, there are very few that properly, rationally, and unapologetically focus on its sinister left-hand path magickal applications. In “The Infernal Vampire Handbook,” D.H.

Magick Matters

"The enigmatic nature of the runes is undeniable. In fact, the English word “rune” comes to us from the Norse word runa, which means “a secret,” or “to whisper.” As symbols, the runes mean little to the untrained eye, yet the magical energies they activate can be used for positive, impactful change in your everyday life. But what are runes, exactly? On the surface level, runes are the characters in a writing system used by the ancient Germanic peoples of Europe. But unlike our modern letters, the runic symbols had been used for magical purposes long before they were fashioned into an alphabet. This is known from runic inscriptions found on ancient artifacts as well...>>
