Hey Gang!

Welcome to another episode of Weird Web Radio!

Joining us today is Mortellus! They are making a return to the show to talk about their new book The Bones Fall in a Spiral: An Introduction to Necromancy & the Magic of Death. This book give you a solid understanding of Necromancy, multifaceted souls, the soul's journey, and plenty of ritual application you've never quite seen before.

We have a great time with lots of insight into Necromancy. I hope you find this as fun and helpful as I did recording it for you.

Mortellus Bio:

Mortellus is the High Priestex of the Coven of Leaves in Western North Carolina, a Gardnerian Coven operating an Outer Court training group who like to say that they are a bubbling cauldron of bitter esoterica slithering their way through Western North Carolina. Additionally, Mortellus is a Mortician, Medium, Necromancer, and author of Do I Have To Wear Black? Rituals, Customs & Funerary Etiquette for Modern Pagans. Currently, they reside on three acres that are hastily becoming overgrown again with their spouse, three-year-old twins, and one really, really ridiculous dog.
