early on when his grandparents gave him a copy of Walter Gibson's, 'The
Master Magicians'.

Other books include Turn of a Friendly Card (on magick with Tarot Cards), Mysteries of the Runes (magick with Rune Stones), Tales from the Talking Board (magick with Ouija Board), Astro-Disks I (magick including 13 wooden zodiac discs), Arcana of Bizarre Magick (a 200 page primer on bizarre magick), and Raising the Dead for Fun & Profit (marketing and performing séance parties). He wrote a column on séance performing in Séance
magazine, and a column on bizarre magick in Vibrations

Crier. He appeared on the cover of a 1990 Magische
Welt magazine, where he is called the Stephen King of Magic.
