Séances, Spirits & the Rise of Victorian Feminism
The Victorians had top hats, questionable medical practices, and an absolutely thriving obsession with talking to dead people.
In this episode of CASSIE WORKMAN IS WITCHY AF, Cassie dives into the Victorian occult revival, when séances, spirit photography, and mediumship became all the rage. But behind the ghostly photographs and suspicious knocking, something else was happening: women were finding new ways to make their voices heard.
From the Fox sisters and the rise of Spiritualism to Helena Blavatsky, Victoria Woodhull, and the connections between occult movements, women’s suffrage, and abolition, Cassie explores how a fascination with the supernatural helped open doors to social change.
Along the way, expect a warning about Ouija boards, a ghostly Abraham Lincoln, a visit to Hock-a-Relic, and King Grimskwawk’s increasingly desperate quest for General Tso’s chicken.

The Strange History of Demons in Hollywood
Hollywood has always had a thing for demons.
In this episode of CASSIE WORKMAN IS WITCHY AF, Cassie digs into the strange history of the occult in Hollywood and the demonic forces that have shaped our nightmares on screen.
From Vlad the Impaler and Nosferatu to Anton LaVey’s Church of Satan, Jayne Mansfield, The Exorcist, Pazuzu, and some of cinema’s most memorable Devils, Cassie explores what happens when Hollywood gets its hands on the occult.
There’s also an Interview with a Demon featuring Lilith, King Grimskwawk explaining what Hell actually gets up to, a discussion of Peter Stormare’s immaculate Satan, and an important reminder that Labyrinth may just be anti-goblin propaganda.
Plus, Steve makes great hot chocolate.
Sometimes he puts poison in it.
Episode 4
Witches, Hippies & THE CRAFT: How Wicca Took Over Pop Culture
Wicca feels ancient.
Its actual history? A lot more complicated.
In this episode of CASSIE WORKMAN IS WITCHY AF, Cassie traces modern Wicca from Gerald Gardner and his mysterious encounter with a group of witches in England through the hippies, the New Age movement, the Satanic Panic, feminism, and the pop culture that introduced an entire generation to witchcraft.
Yes, that means we’re talking about The Craft, Charmed, and, obviously, Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Along the way, Cassie explores how a religion assembled from occult traditions, disputed history, and the work of figures like Margaret Murray, Doreen Valiente, and, inevitably, Aleister Crowley evolved into a living spiritual practice with a major influence on modern occultism.
