Event:  How Modern Magic Affects Hollywood Magic - Lecture

This live lecture looks at witchcraft on screen, exploring the subtle connection it has to our world, the world of modern-day mortal pagans, witches and occultists.  Mainstream American tv and film has starred fictional witches, and we watch avidly, mystified by their spells, goggle-eyed at their abilities, allured by their powers. Horror, fantasy and comedy all have these extraordinary representations of occult magic, sometimes 'dangerous' but always extravagantly superhuman. Heather Greene shows that, in spite of this seeming gulf, there actually is a bit of the real esoteric community in them. In this remarkable lecture, she unpacks the why, when, who and where that actual modern occultists influenced shows and movies. Live lecture with Q & A, so everyone can ask questions at the end
