Editorial Review for Harry's Occult Shop – by Lauren McCutcheon

In Short
A stench of dark magic wafts between walls of colored candles and cases of crystals. For more than 80 years, the store with the sign: "Help light a torch for the good; Cross swords against evil" has sold powerful oils, powders, votives and incense. The smell outlasted Harry Seligman, the shop's founder. As centuries-old New-Age music plays, customers approach the dimly lit wooden room and head to the glass counter in the back.

I am new to rootwork. I visited Harry's this afternoon and was a little afraid of looking dumb. I was given an abundance of help and support by a very nice young woman. So if you are a beginner, Harry's will point you in the right direction.
