THE GATHERING

Kevin at Boleskine GraveyardWhat happens when Kev the Witch is in Scotland? - Hubble, bubble, but no trouble. He's witching again but not for Nessie this time. He's there to exorcise a supposedly haunted bed. No ordinary bed though. It came from Boleskine House on the banks of Loch Ness where infamous self-proclaimed Black Magician Alistair Crowley lived and also Jimmy Page of Led Zepplin. It is claimed that the sofa in the hotel is where he penned 'Stairway to Heaven'.

It is also said that Crowley, while at Boleskin House, that he would masterbate over the older parts of the very Gothic graveyard opposite Boleskin House as an offering of sacrifice, not born humans but his own sperm. He even said to locals that Nessie, 'The Loch Ness Monster' was his pet and that he would throw a sacrificed sheep into the Loch every Sunday. The hotel, The Steadings (www.steadingshotel.co.uk) now has the items that were at Boleskine and the new owner Andy Pavitt is willing to sell the bed, made of solid yew, the sofa and chairs and two cobra candle sticks that came from Boleskine House for a bidding price starting at six thousand six hundred and sixty six pounds, £666.66.

Kevin seems to have a coincidental link with Crowley who he describes as 'a dirty, twisted perverted old man who should have been thrown into the Loch himself'. Kevin lives next to Hastings in Sussex where Crowley died in 1947, fifteen miles from Kevin in The SteadingsBeach Head, above Eastbourne in East Sussex where Crowley climbed the point of rock at the foot of Beachy Head called 'The Devils Chimney' in 1897. He got stuck near the top and had to be rescued by local peasants, who took the mickey out of him so Crowley laid a curse that when the 'Devils Chimney' collapsed 'all hell, fire and brimstone would befall the town of Eastbourne'. The rock collapsed in 2001 and Kevin was called in by a local leading figure to perform an exorcism on the top of Beachy Head to allay local fears.

When Crowley died in 1947 the local council would not allow him to be cremated in Hastings so his funeral took place in Brighton, East Sussex, another place which Kevin has links with and now Kevin's link with Scotland and in particular Loch Ness including Nessie - of course - and blessing the only existing live webcam nessie on the net and of course Crowley there too!
