Black magic Netflix is a controversial topic that has gained attention in recent years. It refers to the use of dark and supernatural forces in a television series or movie available on the popular streaming platform, Netflix. The term "black magic" itself implies magic used for malicious purposes or to cause harm. In the context of entertainment, black magic is often used to create an eerie atmosphere, enhance drama, or explore themes related to occult practices. These TV series or movies often delve into the realms of witchcraft, demonology, necromancy, and other paranormal phenomena. Netflix, being one of the leading streaming services, offers a wide range of content across different genres, including supernatural thrillers and horror.

Materia Magicka conjures safe, affordable spiritual shop
This new occult shop in Riverwest provides spiritual supplies, art, jewelry, workshops, tarot card readings and a free reading library.
By Molly Snyder Senior Writer Published Oct 25, 2022 at 3:55 PMFor almost the entire 20th century, The Krueger Bakery occupied the building on the corner of Holton and Center Streets. But as of last Saturday, it officially became home to Materia Magicka, a cooperatively-run occult and spiritual shop that’s cooking up more than pies and pastries.
Jordan Graham says he founded Materia Magicka after moving from the United Houma Nation in Louisiana to Milwaukee and he couldn’t find the type of spiritual community space he was looking for.
Thus, Graham joined forces with an array of practitioners, healers, lapidarists, alchemists and artists from all different backgrounds to start up Materia Magicka, 2678 N. Holton St.
“Together we created a place where people can come and learn about or practice magick affordably and accessibly,” says Graham. “It also allows us to give back to the local economy.”
Graham also gives back to the Houman Nation by donating sage sales.
“Buying sage here is culturally appropriate and it also supports my people who have been fighting for federal recognition for decades,” he says.
So far, eight people share the still-in-progress space that sells candles, herbs, oils, stones, crystals, jewelry, incense, spirit boards, art, clothing, sage bundles and yaupon tea among other items. Materia Majicka will soon host workshops, tarot card readings, healing sessions, rituals, study groups and more. There’s also a reading library that’s free for the public to access.
“There is no competition here. We are all individuals working as a team to create a confidential, non-judgmental sanctuary for people on all different life journeys," says Nancy Fontanez, a tarot card reader who also sells handcrafted oils, powders and bath supplies. “I'm a mad scientist when it comes to my work. Some of my products are made with 20 different ingredients."
Mekah Stingley Ferreira utilizes the space to make and sell art and meet with clients from her birth work practice.
“All of this is happening in one space and it’s all connected,” says Ferreira. “Plus it's an occult shop / metaphysical store in Milwaukee where you see brown faces.”
Brenda Barrales sells creations from Tres Ojos, a business she owns with her wife. She also plans to teach crystal workshops in the future.
“There are no rules in magick or spirituality," says Barrales. "Everyone is welcome here."
Materia Magicka is in the process of determining hours of operation. They are open most days at noon, but go to their Facebook or Instagram page for updates.
