Realms of the Living Dead: Now Available!



This interesting volume is one of the foremost titles crafted by Frank Homer Curtiss during his life. Husband to the Blavatsky-adjacent founder of the Order of Christian Mystics, his views here are an amalgamation of Theosophical, Gnostic, Rosicrucian, and Hermetic materials- indeed, there is an entire section of poetry written purportedly by natural spirits (gnomes, sylphs, salamanders, and undines.) Allusions to Blavatsky and others are frequent. It goes well beyond its ostensible subject matter into social issues such as alcoholism (it considers alcohol to resonate at an astral frequency, causing danger to drinkers), the First World War (and how German aeronauts were essentially sinning with their development of aviation technology!) among other intriguing subtopics.

204 pages.

  1. I want to say thank you for your Journeys through these Topics and subjects dealing with Occult to Religion types and pathways one can learn from to say the least. I really appreciate the last 3 to 4 books you have pumped out have been meaty !! This books subject matter above reminds me of a Book you covered called Modern Vampirism that was bundled in your Demononology book ?That was a damn good book to but you said you couldn't find much on the author.
    Anyways thanks.
