Witchcraft - 70's Magazine

[Tom Clark Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close Tom Clark]

Over the years I've seen covers of this occult rag pop up in various places, one of my favorite bands even lifted one of the cover photos for a shirt design but I've never laid my eyes upon one in real life. Anyone here ever seen/read it? Just going by the covers, I'm guessing it was a crossover between horror/occult based articles and nude pictorials? The covers sure are enticing:

I've seen a bunch of these covers around too but never actually physically seen a copy of the magazine itself. The covers are awesome.

That's a classy fucking magazine.

Yeah, I'd kill to own some of these. Something tells me the West Coast might have more of these lurking somewhere in second hand stores and antique basements?

I did various searches using 'Witchcraft magazine Gresham Publications', but came up with nothing. 'Witchcraft' is too generic & nothing relevant for Gresham Publication that I noticed. I guess someone will have to email what's-his-face from Electric Wizard...

The only mention of it I've been able to find is this extremely brief mention http://badmags.com/bmoccultsex.html:

The later '60s and early '70s saw a rise of interest in the occult, paganism and witchcraft, and publisher's in both Britain and America released magazine series such as Man, Myth and Magic and in the UK Gresham published a monthly magazine called Witchcraft in the early '70s. In the US adult slicks and magazines used these same themes for many of their articles and photo layouts.

Loving these. Naked women + Satan = instant greatness.

You certainly cannot go far wrong with the combination of Breasts and Beelzebub!!

And I am not religious in any way, but if I were then I would say Hell looks a lot more fun than HEAVEN!!

Indeed.

Anbody know any 70's pornos with this theme? I've seen The Devil Inside Her, liked that. There's something strangely arousing with gorgeous 70's ladies coupled with devils, demons and witchcraft. And no, I'm not a religious man either, and from a very secular cultural context at that, so I don't think it has to do with the religious taboo aspect of it.

There's plenty, Devil's Due is one. Legacy of Satan is another, although it's not an adult film. ABA released two big sized boot collections a while back called "The Satanic Sleaze" collection. I agree, totally love when this angle is explored in 70s cinema, stuff like Simon, King of the Witches and Daughters of Satan. It's great.
