The Moribund Portal

CAD $75.00

The Moribund Portal: Spectral Resonance and the Numen of the Gallows illuminates the macabre portal through which one may glimpse the Otherworld. Beyond its vulgar function as a means of execution, the gallows has long served as a source of Occult power. From the severed appendage of the thief that becomes the Hand of Glory, to the fallen seed that spawns the mandrake root, the Hanging Place is awash in the sinistral ambiance of ancient sorcery.

Richard Gavin weaves together threads of folklore, spiritism, and occult philosophy to create a tapestry of grim vitality and explores the liminal space between firmament and earth, where Odin perceived the runes and Christ witnessed the celestial kingdom. It examines the subtle yet potent symbiosis that exists between the incarnate world and the realm of the Dead.

96 pages and features an interior design by Joseph Uccello and cover art by Benjamin Vierling.
Three Hands Press ✢ Limited edition hardcover bound in gilt tyrian purple cloth, 500 hand-numbered copies
