Other
We cannot possibly host every book you may need to complete your occult studies. With this in mind, we’ve curated a list of other repositories of knowledge that will enrich your studies. Most of these do not relate directly to Satanism, but they all contain invaluable resources for anyone delving into the topic of occultism.
Libraries
- Sacred Texts: A vast collection of religious and spiritual texts, divided by subject.
- Esoterica Archives: A large collection of historical Western grimoires and occult texts online.

Scholars
- Angelia’s Symposium: Delving into research on both the past and present of witchcraft, occultism, and religion, Dr. Angela Puca does incredible work not only uncovering the mysteries of traditions past, but also takes the time to give modern movements their due, including Satanism and the Left Hand Path.
- Esoterica: Dr. Justin Sledge is one of the few scholars who can boast a PhD in Western Esotericism, and he puts it to incredible use making free videos that are high quality enough to be university lectures. If you struggle to understand topics like alchemy, Kabbalah, Enochian magick, or any of the more subtle aspects of Western occultism, Dr. Sledge is your man.
- Jackson Crawford: While not all Satanists feel a draw towards Norse mythology or magick, it’s undeniable that a fair few of us take at least a brief journey with Odin and the others. Because of this, we felt it necessary to recommend Jackson Crawford, a scholar specializing in Norse mythology, language, and culture. He sets the record straight on a lot of misconceptions and points the way towards deeper study.
