I of our collaborative investigation into the Nazi telepath, sexual blackmailer, & British intelligence asset Erik Jan Hanussen before we drop the second installment in just a day or two.

II)" as well as the new solo EPs "Speculative Swiss-mania": patreon.com/ParaPowerMapping You can also subscribe to the Things Observed Patreon to access Pt. II when it releases: https://www.patreon.com/ThingsObserved/posts Make sure to give Luke a follow on Twitter at @thingobserver, as well. Pt. II is guaranteed to be a wild ride... Including mandrake root magical workings at Hitler's behest & the putrid, upchuck-causing folkloric etiology of the herb; the German poet-spy Hans Heinz Ewers & his relationship w/ Hanussen (a potential Crowley connection); and speculations about the possibility that EJH & Crowley may have met in Egypt—what may be novel & not-yet-noticed overlaps in the lives of the two spies... In Part I, we unpack a ton. Hanussen's early life as a vaudeville brat & carny in fin de siècle Austro-Hungary; his possible Sabbatean or Frankist lineage, an antinomian inheritance that's interesting to consider when juxtaposed w/ his future Nazism; his WWI service & cemetery séances; his bribery of military censors; his telepathic & mentalist routines; connections to experimental psychologists like Joe Labéro, Sigmund Freud, & Paul Schilder; "muscle reading", which connects to MasSUSchusetts proponents of hypnotherapy like William James; criminal telepathy; Hanussen's work as a hypnotist at the Institute for Breath Therapy & the Spittalgasse nerve clinic, which hints at his later hypnosis of a tobacco magnate, which would in turn lead to Hanussen getting involved in arms trading & espionage; Hanussen's attempt to insert himself into the investigation into one of Germany's most deadly & disgusting serial killers ever—the Vampire of Düsseldorf aka Peter Kurten; a possible proto-MKULTRA angle to the Düsseldorf killing; shades of Thelemic sex magic in Kurten's paraphilia, which foreshadows the possible connections b/w Crowley & Hanussen that we'll discuss in more detail in Pt. II; Hanussen's early sexual blackmail experiences while working for the Viennese tabloid Der Blitz, which prefigures his later blackmail of Nazis like Count Helldorf on his pleasure yacht the Ursel IV; and a ton more.
