Did you know that one of Hitler's generals was obsessed with the occult and tried to summon demons to help the Nazis win World War II? His name was Heinrich Himmler, and he was the Reichsführer-SS, the head of the Nazi SS paramilitary organization.

Himmler was a firm believer in the occult and the power of the supernatural. He believed that the ancient Aryans had possessed secret knowledge of the occult, and that this knowledge could be used to give the Nazis an edge in the war.

In 1940, Himmler established a special SS unit called the Ahnenerbe, or Ancestral Heritage, to study the occult and other ancient Aryan traditions. The Ahnenerbe conducted research on a wide range of topics, including astrology, clairvoyance, and psychic phenomena.

One of the Ahnenerbe's most ambitious projects was an attempt to summon demons. Himmler believed that demons could be used to spy on the Allies, sabotage their war effort, and even spread disease and death among their troops.

In 1943, the Ahnenerbe sent a team of occultists to the ruins of an ancient castle in Slovakia to perform a demon summoning ritual. The ritual was unsuccessful, and the team returned to Germany empty-handed.

Despite the failure of the demon summoning ritual, Himmler remained convinced of the power of the occult. He continued to fund research into the occult until the very end of the war.
