The Book Of Forbidden Knowledge: Black Magic, Superstitions, Charms, Divination, Signs, Omens, Etc. Paperback – February 20, 2023

It is all about folklore. Nothing dark about it. I wouldn't do most of the things written in the book because it was distributed as a gag/humor book. So, don't try rubbing nettle or brandy in you eye for better eye sight and etc. It just wouldn't be wise!I enjoy researching history but this book was printed as a haha funny thing not magic dark illuminati thing. It isn't a witch book or a satanic evil book. Sorry to disappoint those looking for real magic. I enjoyed laughing at some of the superstition pieces and the other funny articles. It took me 30 minutes to read and it will go into my library as humor/jokes.

Item arrived on time and as described.

Amazing information not easily found elsewhere. Read it for enjoyment or education, as you wish and as you believe...most of the power of "magic" (by whatever moniker it goes by) is the faith and belief of the persons involved. I believe this book is endlessly entertaining, for many reasons. Buy it for yourself, or for a gift, as a curiosity or as a serious tool, you will gain value from owning it.

Money well spent! Not well written!

I really fun read. There are several easy activities in there you can do with your kids, and then there are several pages in there that you should never do. But you wouldn’t know about it ,, if you weren’t exposed to it, so it is an excellent learning experience.

I enjoy occult books and anything regarding superstitions and the like so I got this little book. Overall, it's a fun read but there are numerous errors in grammar, periods in odd places and sometimes words are broken up by symbols. It's almost like a program was used to write everything or copy it from a source without anyone actually checking if it was all correct. If you buy this, you'll see what I mean.

Full of so many obvious superstitions and little spells to invoke which gives an insight into the basic desire to try and control one's 'fate'. There are many generalizations regarding good luck or bad luck dates for each month or day of birth. I'm giving this to someone for off-the-wall amusement. It's like a bit of history. Love the look of this little black book that originated over 110 years ago. It's a curiosity item.

Great quality for a paperback book, good for starts and even if you just want to learn or if you are starting a collection.
