A wandering witch writing about spirit work, death, and the quiet magic between worlds.
Hey there, I’m Orin Shades—a witch, spirit worker, and practitioner of death magic. My path weaves together over fifteen years of experience in folk witchcraft, Catholic mysticism, and necromancy, blending tradition and personal practice into something uniquely my own.
Raised in the rural South, I grew up surrounded by ghost stories, folklore, and the hum of nature’s spirits. My father’s love for the paranormal—ghosts, aliens, and unexplained mysteries—ignited my fascination with the unseen long before I ever called myself a witch. My Catholic upbringing, rich with ritual and reverence for saints, quietly laid the foundation for the spirit work I practice today.
Here, I write about death magick, ancestor veneration, spirit communication, and modern necromancy—exploring both the history and the lived experience of working with the dead. Writing under a pen name for privacy, I share my ongoing journey honestly and without pretense. I’m not claiming mastery—just a deep devotion to learning, listening, and walking between worlds.
Join me as I explore the liminal spaces where the living and the dead meet, and where magic, faith, and folklore intertwine.
