Kenneth Grant

This article is about the British occulist. For the Canadian Presbyterian missionary and Trinidad and Tobago educational pioneer, see Kenneth J. Grant

Kenneth Grant is a British occultist and head of the Typhonian Ordo Templi Orientis.

Grant claims to be the true successor to Aleister Crowley and his order to be the true OTO. (in recent times, distance has been placed on such claims, preferring to take the stance of righteous continuation of the orignal ethos of OTO).

He was a great admirer and close friend of Austin Osman Spare and did much to bring his name into western occult society.

Many of his ideas, such as the use of Lovecrafts mythology, are highly disputed.

He published nine books in three trilogies (the Typhonian Trilogies) that span a vast number of topics. Titles include:

  • The Magical Revival
  • Nightside of Eden ISBN 1871438721
  • Outer Gateways ISBN 1871438128
  • Remembering Aleister Crowley ISBN 1871438128
  • Hidden Lore: The Carfax Monographs by Kenneth & Steffi Grant
  • Outside the Circles of Time
  • Cults of the Shadow
  • Hecate's Fountain
  • Images and Oracles of Austin Osman Spare
  • Beyond the Mauve Zone
  • The Ninth Arch
  • Zos Speaks! (Austin Osman Spare work)
