Mitch Horowitz spent 27 years inside America's biggest publishing houses — and the whole time, he was the occult guy. PEN Award–winning historian, practicing occultist, censored in China, endorsed by David Lynch. We get into hidden history: presidents, gurus, dime-store horoscopes, and experiments that shouldn't work but do. Some of what he told me, I can't even put in the title. Come down to the Basement and find out why.
