The current homepage ships 1.46 MB of HTML
Before a single photograph loads, across 66 script tags. This page is a fraction of that, with no framework and no build step — which matters most on a phone, on a sidewalk, in October.
Purveyors of fine occult goods since 2017
Four thousand curiosities.
One candlelit room
on Wharf Street.
Ritual tools, grimoires, relics, herbs and hand-selected oddities gathered from across the world — alongside seasoned readers, working practitioners, and a school of witchcraft that meets after the shop goes dark.
- 4,044 items in stock
- 14 consultation services
- 10 chambers to wander
The house
Ten chambers. Wander them in any order.
The shop is arranged the way an old house is — by room, not by category listing. Each chamber keeps its own character, its own shelf logic, and its own reasons to linger.
The collection
Find it in three keystrokes.
A working demonstration: filter by chamber, narrow by price, or type anything at all. Every item below is real inventory at its real price — and the search runs entirely in the browser, with no page reload between you and what you came for.
The cauldron turns up nothing.
Try a broader term — or clear the filters and start again.
Consultations & services
Sit with someone who has actually done the work.
Fourteen bookable services, from a fifteen-minute question to a full ritual consecration. Tarot, cartomancy, bone-throwing, oracle and mediumship — in person on Wharf Street, or remotely wherever you are.
- Readers vetted for experience, not for theatre
- In-person or remote, your preference
- Five-minute satisfaction window on every session
- Adults only, sober, one sitter at a time
Circe Academy
A school of witchcraft that meets after closing.
Multi-part series and long-form intensives taught by working practitioners and published scholars — the deepest thing the shop offers, and the hardest thing to find anywhere else.
Course titles are drawn from the school's real programme. Dates and seat counts shown are illustrative placeholders for layout purposes.
Visit the shop
Wharf Street, where Salem gets quiet again.
Two minutes from the Witch Trials Memorial and a world away from the costume shops. Four people in the room at a time, by design — you will not be elbowed while you are reading a spine.

About this page
An unsolicited concept, built in full by Tiny Byte Studio.
Nobody asked us to make this. We looked at the current site, found a handful of things worth fixing, and built the alternative rather than writing a list about it. What follows is what we actually measured.

Thirty pages live at copy-of-… URLs
Pamphlets & Zines sits at /copy-of-books. The consultation
terms sit at /copy-of-in-store-health-safety-guid — and that one
is linked in the main navigation. Every one is a page duplicated in the
editor and never renamed.

The homepage has no top-level heading
Four h2s, sixteen h3s, no h1 — on a
business whose whole search moat is ranking for Salem witchcraft. This page
opens with one.

Four thousand products, and no way to search them
The catalog is the single biggest asset here and the hardest thing to move through. The search at the top of this page is the fix, and it is real — try it.
If you'd like the real version of this — yours, with your photography and your catalog wired in — that is precisely what we do.
