The Unfinished Business of Manly P. Hall

This episode dives into the lonely Rosicrucian childhood of Manly P. Hall, his meteoric rise in 1920s occult Los Angeles, and the creation of his magnum opus, The Secret Teachings of All Ages, which cemented him as one of the most influential esoteric philosophers of the twentieth century. Along the way, we'll talk about his years at the Philosophical Research Society, his legendary residence in Frank Lloyd Wright’s eerily iconic and possibly haunted Ennis House, and the still‑unsolved, sinister circumstances surrounding his 1990 death and contested will.Edited by Max Holechek
