What's Inside the Guide
Dear Magic Seeker,
I've lived in NYC for over 25 years, and I love it more than ever. Folks often ask me about my favorite witch-centric places to visit while here, so I decided to finally make a big old list! In this guide you'll find my favorite, most magical spots in the city (and yes a few "mundane" ones too that I couldn't resist mentioning too.) It includes museums (with a few specific "can't-miss" works), esoteric institutions, occult shops, bookstores, and even a few witch-ish restaurants and cafes to keep your enchanted fire fueled. I tried to stick to the brief and not include every favorite restaurant or movie theater, but I confess there are few exceptions. Mostly these are spots that I find particularly bewitching! I hope you'll find NYC as spellbinding as I do.
