VYS0017 | Occult Detective - Vayse to Face with Bob Freeman - Show Notes
It's not every day that you meet an actual Occult Detective but Bob Freeman is just that - and many other things too, including ghost-hunter, author, musician, game designer and wizard. Hine and Buckley talk to Bob about his experiences assisting the police force in occult matters, his ideas on the subject of magick, his creative process, his personal methodology for investigating ghosts and how he celebrated seeing Oliver Stone's "The Doors" on the big screen... Recorded 9 February 2023
