Dark Witchcraft, Real Life Cults, and the Vampiric Energy of New Orleans

Deskripsi

Askia sits down with witch and returning guest Celeste Mott live from New Orleans. They expose a real vampire cult that tried to get this episode taken down, dive into cursed candles, spirits wearing masks, shotgun house ghosts, and the vampiric energy grid of the French Quarter. Then they get brutally honest about mental illness, self-harm, addiction, and the line between paranormal experiences and spiritual psychosis.______________________________Follow Celeste!https://www.instagram.com/celestemotthttps://www.celestemott.comSpecial thanks to the Abita Springs Hotel for hosting our podcast!https://www.abitaspringshotel.comSUBMIT YOUR SHORT SCARY STORIES:https://forms.gle/sQJhS31p7oMoG9tv6Produced by Q6 Mediahttps://q6.media______________________________The cult is real. The cult is culting. After Celeste's first appearance on the show, members of her former vampire cult contacted Askia demanding the episode come down. Instead of folding, Askia doubled down and brought Celeste back for round two.This episode goes deep. Celeste breaks down how she builds a spirit court, what happened when she slapped a tree during a solstice ritual and found the letter 'A' carved in bark, and why spirits wear masks to manipulate practitioners. She walks through two of the most concrete paranormal encounters she's ever had: a full-body apparition witnessed by two people simultaneously, and a witch candle she bought locally that invited a skeletal shadow entity AND a ghost into her bedroom the same night.Then it gets personal. Celeste opens up about the fine line between schizophrenia and spiritual psychosis and how the vampiric energy of the French Quarter can keep you addicted. The episode wraps with major red flags for identifying cults and high-control groups, and a teaser on Celeste's viral TikTok lucid dreaming experiments inside a shared dreamscape called Mall World.
