A collaboration between painter Leonora Carrington and Alexandro Jodorowsky in Mexico, 1957.
“ During a party, Luis Buñuel, seduced by Carrington’s beauty and emboldened by the notion that she had transcended all bourgeois morality, proposed (with his characteristic bluntness) that she become his mistress. Without even waiting for her answer, he gave her the key to the secret studio that he used as a love nest and told her to meet him at three o’clock the next afternoon. Early the next morning, Leonora went to visit the place alone. She found it tasteless: It looked exactly like a motel room. Taking advantage of the fact that she was in her menstrual period, she covered her hands with blood and used them to make bloody handprints all over the walls in order to provide a bit of decoration for that anonymous, impersonal room. Buñuel never spoke to her again.”

Reddit user Gombotz uploaded these pictures of a doll pierced with needles and a strange piece of paper his friend found in a graveyard. One of the users claims that the piece of paper looks like a magic square with East Arabic numerals reading:
1656/1651/1658
1657/1655/1653
1652/1659/1654Others have commented that the doll and the piece of paper were used to hex someone. Others have linked the numerals to a demon called Naamah and claim that the doll was used to inflict pain upon the spirit of the deceased.

“Moonchild is a long lost gem in the canon of esoteric cinema. The title references a 1923 novel by Aleister Crowley, and Genesis originally stated of the film, ‘Moonchild is a spell, to create a new person or a new stage in people, through compassion and through thought, and it’s a construct, just like a spell is.’”
