Sebastian Crane has an insatiable appetite for weird history, black velvet, and things that go bump in the night. He is the host of The Hellfire Club, a celebratory exploration of queer, occult, and erotic history on Patreon, by day, and a ghost tour guide in Salem, MA after sundown. You can find him creating dazzlingly queer content on all platforms @Mr_S_Crane.

IN THIS CONVERSATION Sebastian and I discuss Romantic aesthetics, photography as time magic, queer-coded Disney villains, and the unearthing of LGBTQIA+ representation in history, magic, and myth.
