Education & Reference Philosophy & Religion History

Hans Holzer’s Encyclopaedia Of Witchcraft & Demonology is a 1974 first-edition hardcover that invites collectors and curious minds into the shadowy crossroads of folklore, ritual and paranormal history. Lavishly illustrated and wrapped in its original dust jacket, this vintage Octopus volume feels like a secret grimoire pulled from an occult library.

Every spread pairs concise entries with evocative imagery, making the book both a scholarly reference and a conversation-starting art piece for fans of witches, demonology and magick. Expect entries on spells, satanic lore, ghosts and ritual practice, all filtered through Holzer’s trademark psychological lens.

The 252-page textblock is clean and tight; light edge bumps and a few tiny page-edge chips are noted, nothing that interrupts reading or display. A gentle rub to the front paper corners keeps the price friendly for budget-minded collectors seeking a 1970s occult classic.

Ideal for young adults, seasoned collectors or anyone decorating a moody reading nook, this encyclopaedia adds vintage authority to shelves devoted to witchcraft, the occult and paranormal history.
