Re Hitler & mysticism -- There's a fascinating little pamphlet called "I Saw Hitler Make Black Magic," written by the late Thane Walker, a psychic who was asked by Hitler asked to join the mind-magic group at Eagle's Nest in the late 30's (Thane told him to blow it out his moustache, and ended up in Nuremburg prison). The booklet was published by a group in Los Angeles called The Prosperos; copies of it might be around somewhere. By the way, on the other side of the channel during WWII, the British occult gang was fighting for the Allies by doing something akin to what Katherine Kurtz described in her book, "Lammas Night."
