Episode Details

Nesta Helen Webster is one of the originators of modern Illuminati conspiracy theory. She argued that there was a continuous line of anarchist black magicians running from the Gnostics to the Bogomils to the Knights Templar, medieval witches, Rosicrucians, and Adam Weishaupt's Bavarian Illuminati. Our exploration of Webster starts our ninth series in which we ask whether or not there is a long-standing occult conspiracy to control or otherwise manipulate the world's population.
