There isn't a general thread on this so here it goes.

Sooooooooo my question:
Was Himmler a zombie?
Well OK its closer to why would anyone think he was? The Unexplained has a section on Nazis and the occult (MoMS&T - vol 17) and this bit attracted my attention:
I suspect it probably comes from:
J. H. Brennan, The Occult Reich (New York:Signet, 1974)
Anyone got any further information?
I have a copy of Trevor Ravenscroft's "The Spear of Destiny" which I assume is along similarish lines and really is a load of old cobblers.
Are there any sensible books actually examining the wildness of the field?
I stumbled across this review of "The Occult Roots of Nazism" by Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke (1985):

I also found this interesting essay at the Simon Weisenthal Center:

There is a letter published in FT on Blavatsky and the right wing in FT181: 71 (by one of the FTMBers).

The occult writer J.H. Brennan has gone so far as to sugges that Himmler was a "non person" a zombie without mind or soul of its own, drawing power from Hitler like a psychic leech.
