Welcome to Otherworld. I'm your host, Jack Wagner.

This is a short preview of an ongoing series we have been doing on Patreon with the help of Wolf Fleetwood Ross about the life of Alastair Crowley.

Alistair Crowley, I'm sure many of you have heard this name before.

He was known as the wickedest man in the world.

He was an occultist, a poet, a mountaineer, a man who created a lot of rituals.

He created and ran many secret societies.

You know, the list of this guy's titles goes on and on.

There's a reason why this series is five parts long.

The story of this man's life is genuinely the craziest biography I have ever heard in my

life, without a doubt. Parts one, two, and three are already out, and you're about to hear a little

portion of part four. This episode covers many, many things, but the section you're about to hear right now, I believe, comes from a part in this episode where Alastair Crowley and his new collaborator slash protégé slash lover Victor Neuberg traveled to the desert of Algeria to perform a ritual

over the course of two weeks to summon a demon named Charanzan.

During Wolf's research, he told me that it was actually pretty hard to find a lot of information

about what this ritual actually

entailed and what they were doing to summon Charanzan over these two weeks in the desert.

As a last ditch effort, he tried to ask ChatGBT-B-T about this.

He asked it, how do you summon Charanan? And, and to his surprise, chat

GPT seemed to know how to do the ritual but refused to tell Wolf and instead cautioned him

about why he should not summon this demon. Like I said, the first four parts of this series are out now on Patreon in audio and video form.

The final section is coming very soon. To hear those, you could sign up at patreon.com slash otherworld.

We'll be back next week with a brand new episode. Once again, if you want to hear these bonus episodes,

the first four parts are out now. Patreon.com slash Otherworld.
