London's Horniman Museum (opened 1901) was established by Frederick John Horniman, a wealthy tea merchant. His daughter Annie persuaded him to appoint Samuel Liddell Mathers as its curator. Both Annie and Mathers were members of the occult organisation The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, whose members included W.B. Yeats, Bram Stoker and Aleister Crowley. Mathers' influence still pervades the museum, whose exhibits include shamanic masks, Devatara cards (a possible Indian ancestor of the tarot), and magical implements from Africa, Australia, Asia and Europe. The museum also contains a mummy that Mathers reputedly tried to bring to life. #folklore #history #occult #wierd #psychogeography #museums #London #mythology

Cup made from a human skull found by an adolescent Lord Byron in the depths of his ancestral #gothic mansion, Newstead Abbey. Byron and his friends would conduct ceremonies in which they drank from the relic. #poets #poetry #Romantics #Romanticism #history #literature #wierd #skull

Ya know, your method sounds so much more kewl and minimalistic compared to mine which was to haunt all night diners dressed like Dr. Frank-N-Furter from The Rocky Horror Picture Show, with a ball gag, a leash around my neck, and a sign that read:
Lilith own this mortal virgin ass!
