Hanussen, Erik Jan. Die Hanussen-Hausse. Hellsehen. [Germany], ca. 1931. Striking poster advertising occult-leaning séances at Hanussen’s mansion. Designed by Peter Eng. 18 ¼ x 27 ¼". Minor border chip; A. Rare. Biographer Mel Gordon dubbed Hanussen “Hitler’s Jewish Clairvoyant,” an apt title based on the psychic’s intimate involvement and friendships with members of the Third Reich. It was an association that would later cost Hanussen his life. This poster likely advertises the many séances conducted at Hanussen’s home, commonly known as the “Palace of the Occult.” In addition to apparently telling the future (and most significantly, predicting the burning of the Reichstag), Hanussen promoted the feats of strongmen, was a hypnotist, astrologer, and occultist. He was assassinated by the Nazis on March 25, 1933.
