William Robert Wraithe is an occult author that writes books for
the popular genre of new age magic(k). He has written over twenty
books (most popular one being MTHOS) that delves into the darker
side of magick, and is also of serbian descent. Although he is an
accomplished writer, he has also designed and published many Tarot
Decks as well as card games (Witch Academy: The Card Game).
According to online record, William Robert Wraithe was born in
the United Kingdom in the year 1898. There has been a record of him
enrolling to be a U.S. Citizen in the early 1900's from a boat
manifest that was logged into Ellis Island at that time. Many claim
him to be immortal (rumors), but the only photo of him that was
taken was last year (besides the one in the early 1900's) in which
he appears to be between thirty-five to thirty-six years of age.
When comparing the two pictures (current and old picture) there is
no mistaking the resemblance.
Mr. Wraithe is also listed as a fully physical shifting werewolf
by more than a thousand people who have claimed to have witnessed
the shift. He does not have a bold following per say, but has over
a million followers worldwide. If someone were to ask who he was to
the random person, they would probably not be able to tell you.
However, to the devout followers of the occult (new age) world,
they identify him as the "founding father" of new approaches to
otherwise old magickal practices. Further, an example of such an
approach would be linked with his theories and papers on
"morphogenetic fields" and how they relate to magick. This new
approach to magick has given many practitioners (new and vets)
leaps ahead on their original works and views in their fields of
study.
