"I was born in Detroit, the year was 1951.
Lived the majority of my life in Hamtramck, a tiny city surrounded by Detroit, and have since
moved to an outlying suburb. We call our residence Crimson Manor after the color of the brick; a one and a half acre Haunted Estate
complete with spooky woods, a sanctified clearing with fire pit called Coventry Meadow, a Victorian era 'lost' cemetery, and a lush garden
of lawn, flowers, fishpond, and Gothic statuary.
My interest in magic goes way back to my childhood. As a
rather tall, lanky, and 'geeky' youth with no hint of shyness, magic afforded
me the opportunity to interact with members of the opposite sex. Towards the end of high school, after shedding the coke bottle specs
for contact lenses and acquiring my own car, I abandoned magic for other ways to meet ladies. The interest was rekindled about 13
years ago, and since I am an anthropological student of the Occult, Demonology, and Witchcraft, and have always loved horror books
and movies, it did not take long before I discovered Bizarre Magick. I hold a Master's Degree in Anthropology specializing in politics,
comparative religion, history, biblical archaeology, mythology, cults, conspiracy theory, and Magick. One of my greatest joys is my
total passion for Halloween Haunting. Every year we throw a big In addition, I collect decks of cards of all types; playing, tarot, children's, and novelty. I also am a Sideshow, Carnival, Girl Show, Amusement Park, Dark Ride, and Funhouse fanatic. Am a card-carrying member of the Society of American Magicians and enjoy attending Magic Conventions of all kinds. I also meet regularly with local and regional Halloween Haunters for workshops and social events. |
