So enjoy this one from my personal collection. It is a vintage signed photo of Margaret Hamilton (1902-1985) as the Wicked Witch of the West, inscribed, “Help, Bill, bring me a blotter! Oh dear me
here I – go – Best Wishes, Margaret Hamilton”

For Rob’s 2025 Masonic Halloween Special, he will be returning to The Farm podcast, hosted by Recluse, and will be analyzing the highly conspiratorial and creepy ass Under the Silver Lake (2018). However, this show will be released on November 10th, so in the meantime, enjoy these past Samhain classics!
333. ChVRVNZVN [Choronzon], see Liber 418, 10th Aethry. It is surprising that this large scale 3 should be so terrible a symbol of dispersion. There is doubtless a venerable arcanum here connoted, possibly the evil of Matter summó. 333 = 37 x 9 the accurséd. – Aleister Crowley (1875-1947), Liber 777, 1909.
Choronzon, an odious demon emerging from Dr. John Dee (1527-1608) and Edward Kelley’s (1555-1597) sixteenth-century Enochian Magic, is the Dweller in the Abyss, the destroyer of ego, and the black fire of hatred, invoked by Master Therion and Victor Neuberg (1883-1940) in the Algerian desert, the demon shouting aloud, “Zazas, Zazas, Nasatanada Zasas” (see Hereditary, 2018).

The dreaded Choronzon haunted the Utah Valley University campus in Orem, Utah, on September 10, 2025, and unmistakably had a hand in the assassination of Charlie Kirk. The word FREEDOM printed on Kirk’s t-shirt has a Pythagorean reduced value of 33, and the baseball caps numbered 47 are 4 + 7 = 11, and there are three of them visible, i.e., 11 x 3 = 33. Naturally, the demon connects with The Wizard of Oz (1939) because The Wonderful Wizard of Oz Experience in Brookline, Massachusetts, is located at 333 Washington Street, and the Wizard of Oz Museum in Cocoa Beach, Florida, is relocating to a new location at 333 W. Cocoa Beach Causeway. And, of course, the name Kirk immediately conjures Captain Kirk (William Shatner) and Star Trek (original TV series 1966-1969), its offspring Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987-1994), and its Ozian episode titled “Tin Man” (Season 3, Episode 20, April 1990), wherein 47 Starfleet personnel died in the Ghorusda Disaster due to Tam Elbrun’s (Harry Groener) failure to act forcefully during first contact. Lastly, assassin Tyler Robinson was arrested after a 33-hour manhunt, and the drive time from Orem to his home in St. George, Utah, via I-15 South is three hours and 33 minutes, implying Choronzon followed him home from the university’s campus after the murder.
F/3 + r/9 + e/4 + e/4 + d/5 + o/3 + m/5 = 33.
I was finally able to acquire this from a fellow collector in California (along with another item). Behold the 1939 hardback first edition of The Wizard of Oz tied to the film’s release on August 25, 1939. The dust jacket is in near-mint condition, and the book, binding, and pages are also in mint condition; it is a choice example, the best I have ever seen. Not pictured is that the edition is inscribed and signed by Margaret Hamilton (1902-1985) on a blank page, the actress who portrayed the Wicked Witch of the West. One will notice that the price of the book in 1939 was $1.19 (as indicated on the interior of the dust jacket), which is 9/11 backward, as demons often communicate in reverse, anticipating and announcing the Crowleyan OZ-Rainbow death curse.

From Cinema Symbolism Third Edition:

An astounding Jungian synchronicity (or Swedenborgian correspondence) occurred on the set of The Wizard of Oz that defies all rational explanation. The unbelievable story was told in Aljean Harmetz’s seminal The Making of the Wizard of Oz (1977),
“For Professor Marvel’s coat,” says Mary Mayer [a unit publicist on Oz], “they wanted grandeur gone to seed. A nice-looking coat but very tattered. So the Wardrobe Department went down to an old second-hand store on Main Street and bought a whole rack of coats. And Frank Morgan and the wardrobe man and Victor Flemming got together and chose one. It was kind of a Prince Albert coat. It was black broadcloth and it had a velvet collar, but the nap was all worn out off the velvet.” Helene Bowman recalls the coat as “ratty with age, a Prince Albert jacket with a green look.”
The coat fitted Morgan and had the right look of shabby gentility, and one hot afternoon Frank Morgan turned out the pocket. Inside was the name “L. Frank Baum.”
“We wired the tailor in Chicago,” says Mary Mayer, “and sent pictures. And the tailor sent back a notarized letter saying that the coat had been made for Frank Baum. Baum’s widow identified the coat, too, and after the picture was finished we presented it to her. But I could never get anyone to believe the story.”
The story was published once–as an example of the lies press agents are willing to tell in order get a story into print.[1]
