But behind the ghostly photographs and suspicious knocking, something else was happening: women were finding new ways to make their voices heard.

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.E55. Magic, Demons & the Art of Changing Reality25m · 2026-10-14How does magic actually work? In this episode of CASSIE WORKMAN IS WITCHY AF, Cassie explores the mechanics of magic, takes us inside her occult temple, and explains the rituals and tools behind her practice. There’s a magical Craft Corner with King Grimskwawk, an Interview with a Demon, and a deeper look at why Cassie was drawn to the occult in the first place. Because sometimes the scariest thing you can confront isn’t a demon. It’s yourself.E66. How Demon Possession Actually Works25m · 2026-10-21What does it actually mean to be possessed? In this episode of CASSIE WORKMAN IS WITCHY AF, Cassie dives into the strange history of demonic possession, from the Loudun possessions and infamous exorcisms to the occult forces supposedly lurking behind some of history’s darkest moments. But possession isn’t always about demons taking control of a body. Sometimes it starts with something much simpler: fear, isolation, and a story powerful enough to make people believe almost anything. There’s Owen Wilson, the Spear of Destiny, Catholic exorcisms, King Grimskwawk discovering the power of community, and a surprisingly important lesson about what happens after you get the demon out. Because it’s not enough to have something to fight against. You have to have something to fight for.E77.

There are scrying mirrors, angelic languages, alchemy, Queen Elizabeth I, questionable demands from celestial beings, and one spectacularly doomed partnership. But Cassie’s own encounter with an angel leads somewhere much more personal: When the world makes it difficult to believe in humanity, what makes us worth saving? Turns out, the answer might be something humans figured out a very long time ago.E88.

From ancient beliefs and forbidden rituals to Cassie's deeply personal experiences with identity, grief, and loss, this episode explores why death has always held such a powerful place in the human imagination. And when King Grimskwawk offers Cassie some unexpected wisdom, we're reminded that sometimes the most powerful magic isn't about escaping death. It's about finding a reason to keep living.
