Overview

Deep in the Ozark hills, an ancient magic never died. Witchcraft & Occult in the Ozarks reveals the living folk magic of the region - the granny women who stopped blood with a Bible verse, the hidden covens that still meet by firelight, the kitchen spells disguised as simple household routines, and the sacred springs and caves where the veil grows thin. Drawing from years of fieldwork, family stories, and direct experience, this book explores the real Ozark craft: its roots in European cunning-folk traditions, African rootwork, and Native sacred geography. It examines everything from protective jar spells and crossroads rituals to the darker arts of cursing, hag-riding, and the Ozark ""howling curse."" Neither romanticized nor sanitized, this is a raw, grounded look at a powerful magical tradition that still survives in the hollows and hollers of the Ozarks today.
