I guess my title kind of puts it all out there. I am looking to collect spellbooks, Journals and the likes from those who are insane, or have mental health issues. What’s the easiest way to purchase them, and how do you even find them?

Fame or notoriety do not matter to me. I am just looking for scripts/texts written by neural atypical people that are related to the occult…

At first I thought estate sales would be a good way to find this… but heirs tend to destroy/hide or sell that stuff on the secondary market as to not taint the value of the other property.

Edit: I wondering if some internet archiving could help find threads to look for.

    Get on FetLife and find a local lgbtq-friendly bdsm group. In my experience, the venn diagram of lesbian/bisexuals into bdsm and the occult community in any given area is just a circle. Bring baked goods to the munches and ask about local covens. Once you’ve established yourself as not a creep, it shouldn’t be that hard to put the word out about the grimoires.

    I’ve done about half of this, but I’m not into witchcraft.
