Magica Sexualis, Restored Edition: Mystic Love Books of Black Magic and Secret Sciences
By Dr. Emile Laurent and Prof. Paul Nagour · Translated by Raymond Sabitier
Some books were never meant to be found.
For the first time in nearly 100 years, Magica Sexualis returns in a commercially available, restored edition, and now it's on your devices. Drawing on over 1,000 years of sex magic tradition, this extraordinary illustrated volume opens a cabinet of forbidden knowledge: desire entwined with witchcraft, religious ritual, supernatural belief, and the secret sciences of attraction.
Originally privately published, this unusual work gathers sorcery, demonology, enchantment, and sexual mysticism into a singular historical reading experience. Part grimoire, part chronicle of humanity’s darker imaginings, it follows the ancient impulse to bind passion to power — through love charms and talismans, whispered superstitions, nocturnal visions, and the rites that haunted both the devout and the condemned.
The original reading experience, restored
Black Fern, an imprint of Erosetti Press, preserves the distinctive visual character of the original publication. The PDF is a facsimile presentation, not a modern resetting, while the EPUB carries the same restored text in a searchable, reflowable format with its illustrations.
Sixteen chapters and an extensive introduction.
Illustrations and historic plates, including Mephistopheles and Faust.
A bibliography for readers who wish to pursue the historical sources.
The “Cabinet of Unusual Illustrations on Magica Sexualis,” with captioned images of witchcraft, temptation, occult symbolism, and supernatural desire.
Inside the forbidden cabinet
The book ranges from Satanism and the devil’s pact to incubi, succubi, the witches’ sabbath, and the Black Mass; from werewolves and vampires to love potions, aphrodisiacs, amulets, and phallic symbolism. Dreams, the language of flowers, sexual music and dances, Christianity and sexual magic, and the mystic philosophy of copulation through the ages form part of its wide-ranging inquiry.
The images are not incidental ornaments: they form a parallel history of temptation and belief, giving visible shape to what earlier centuries feared, desired, and imagined.
For readers and collectors of the unusual
For readers of occult history, witchcraft, erotic folklore, and illustrated antiquarian books, Magica Sexualis offers an encounter with an earlier era’s fascination with forbidden knowledge. Seductive, unsettling, and historically revealing, it is a vintage key to a world in which ecstasy and damnation were never far apart.
Presented as a historical work, it preserves the beliefs and language of its period rather than offering modern medical or scientific guidance.
Open it. If you dare.
