7. A most evil number, whose perfection is impossible to attack. – Aleister Crowley, Liber 777, 1909.
Shades of Suspira (1977, 2018), Black Swan (2010), Dirty Dancing (1987), The Shining (1980), and, of course, The Wizard of Oz (1939) manifest in the trailer; for example, Terry Gionoffrio’s (Julia Garner) light blue socks and red shoes (seen when the demon emerges) give her away, making her Dorothy Gale’s counterpart – a stranger in a strange land. Can’t wait to see this one. Easter egg: The Pale Crook is a knockoff of The Black Crook (1866), the first produced Broadway play that features a dark sorcerer as one of the antagonists. Naturally, Apartment 7A is scheduled to be released on September 27th, 2024, generating a Baphometic nexus, linking Crook to Thomas Matthew Crooks (2003-2024), who attempted to assassinate President Trump 77 days earlier on July 13th. Another Easter egg: Dracula (1931) is playing in the next theater over, written by Bram Stoker (1847-1912), who the Bramford is named after.

This Crowleyan interview is episode 6, lasting 66 minutes, for 666 = Master Therion’s favorite number and the mystic numeral of the sun.
Rob makes his first appearance on the most excellent podcast Codega’s Codex of Curiosities analyzing occult themes and undercurrents in film and, more importantly, everyone’s favorite topic, the Crowleyan Rainbow-OZ death curse. Rob also talks pop culture predicting 9/11, which is more a supernatural event than a manmade event horizon. Enjoy!
The number 42 is the Great Number of the Curse. – Aleister Crowley, Liber CCCXXXIII, 1913
This curse loves to overlap. – Robert W. Sullivan IV
On September 11th, 2001, Thelemic Flight 93’s departure from Newark was delayed 42 minutes due to heavy airport congestion, and 42-year-old Terry Butler witnessed its downing while working at Stoystown Auto Wreckers near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Years later, another Key Stone State Butler, this time Butler, Pennsylvania, which has a value of 77 using Pythagorean reduction,[1] the scene of a failed assassination attempt on President Trump. It is worth noting that Trump World Tower in New York City measures 77 by 144 feet (its luxury suite is 77B); the latter number is 122, the Apocalyptic Book of Revelation’s pervasive number, and per Aleister Crowley (1875-1947), signifying the twelve houses of the zodiac, i.e., the termination of the Abrahamic Faiths in favor of the Aeon of Horus, indicated by the skyscraper’s 72 floors, to wit the Precession of the Equinoxes.[2] Unsurprisingly, Butler syncs with four other Butlers; the first is Butler Haynes Park in Illinois, the state where Lyman Frank Baum wrote The Wizard of Oz, the venue for the Prairie State’s 2024’s Wizard of Oz festival. The second is broadcast performer Daws Butler (1916-1988), who voiced both the Scarecrow and Oz the Great and Powerful on the television show Off to See the Wizard (1967-1968). The third is William Butler Yeats (1865-1939), who Master Therion combated using supernatural forces, and the fourth is overlap, one of the hex’s favorite fingerprints: one of first anti-Chinese coronavirus isolation images emerged from Columbia University’s Butler Library in February 2020, right before COVID-19 struck the United States.[3] The Dark Mother makes a cameo (as she always does): Trump’s would-be assassin was from and lived 42 miles from Butler in Bethel Park, Pennsylvania; the latter’s tallest point is Rocky Ridge in the southwestern area, which is 420 meters high, and the borough is 93% Caucasian,[4] harkening back to the doomed Shanksville flight. Corey Comperatore (1974-2024), who was killed in the ambush, was a member of Cabot Church, and C is the third letter of the alphabet, giving us our daisy chain of 3s, IDing Choronzon’s hidden hand. Of Course, Cabot Church is located at 707 (77 minus the zero) Winfield Road. Cinema Symbolism OZ coming soon…
Easter egg: there were 22 Secret Service Agents at the rally in Butler, and 22 signifies the number of letters in the Hebrew Alphabet, the 22 cards of the Major Arcana and paths of the Tree of Life/Wisdom, suggesting completion of imperfection and fatal finality per Crowley, the dreaded dyad at play with the kabalistic shells or Kelippot.

Fast-forward years later to another Key Stone State Butler, this time Butler, Pennsylvania, which has a value of 77 using Pythagorean reduction,[1] the scene of a failed assassination attempt on President Trump. Butler syncs with yet another Butler, Butler Haynes Park in Illinois, the state wherein Lyman Frank Baum wrote The Wizard of Oz, the venue for the Prairie State’s 2024’s Wizard of Oz festival.

Here we go again. Baphomet’s hoof prints: Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge opened in ’77, collapsed on March 26, 2024, a date with an ordinal value of 77,[1] syncing with the first DVD release (MGM/Turner) of The Wizard of Oz on March 26, 1997, and the Patapsco River (the waterway the wreckage impeded) finally opened 77 days later on June 10, 2024. The Dark Mother hides herself (as she always does): the bridge’s global coordinates were 39° 13’ 1” N, 76° 31’ 42” W, and after its collapse, all traffic on I-695’s Inner Loop (the Baltimore Beltway) off-ramped at Exit 42 (MD 151/North Point Blvd). Choronzon also made an appearance: the incident caused jobs to dry up immediately for Charm City’s longshoreman; their Baltimore local is Union #333. More forthcoming….
The Apotheosis of Chance: Being There (1979), a parable that reveals the Illuminati at its conclusion, also alludes to Stanley Kubrick (1928-1999) filming the 1969 moon landing in a NASA studio. When Chauncey Gardiner (Peter Sellers, 1925-1980) horses around in front of the television store, its shop windows are the lunar surface, complete with a video camera that projects his image onto a monitor on the moon’s surface. A jazz-rock cover of Richard Strauss’ (1864-1949) Also sprach Zarathustra (1896) booms over the scene, which immediately recalls Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) and its theme song, arguably one of the most recognizable signature tunes in cinema history. The tone poem, coupled with the storefront and Sellers, who starred in Kubrick’s Lolita (1962) and Dr. Strangelove (1964), suggests the legendary director shot the moon-landing footage, which must have been one of the worst-kept secrets in Hollywood.
