Unseen spirits. Ancient curses. Forgotten rituals. The demons of Aotearoa never disappeared-they just learned to hide.
Spirits of the Black Coast: Māori Demons & Night Beings is a deeply immersive, occult exploration of Māori spiritual entities that exist beyond the veil of modern life. Drawing from sacred oral traditions, spiritual knowledge, and ancestral wisdom, this book uncovers the terrifying and sacred truths behind Māori demonology. Discover shadow-feeding pōuriuri, haunted objects pulsing with ancestral grief, cursed bloodlines pursued by whaiwhaiā, and corrupted kaitiaki who turned from protectors to predators. Step into the layered realms of Te Kore and Te Pō, where spirits are born, curses are cast, and the unseen world governs the living. Inside you'll find: Deeply detailed accounts of Māori night beings and their origins Real spiritual practices including karakia, mākutu, and whakanoa The dark arts of the tohunga mākutu-and those who undo them Sacred knowledge never before presented in such depth or clarity This is not mythology. This is spiritual truth, spoken in a voice that honours the ancestors and warns the present. Enter this world with reverence. Read it with caution. The spirits are listening.
