It was not the practice of the black arts itself that I considered to be the story, because that is
nothing new in the world. There were Devil-worshipping sects and voodoo cults long before there were Christians. In eighteenth-century England a Hell-Fire Club, with connections to the
American colonies through Benjamin Franklin, gained some brief notoriety. During the early
part of the twentieth century, the press publicized Aleister Crowley as the "wickedest man in
the world". And there were hints in the 1920s and '30s of a "black order" in Germany.
