More About the Author

In 1962 I came to the U.S. from England, where I'd written comedy scripts and was personal scriptwriter for a popular British comedian. Interested in the occult for over fifty years, in the past forty years I've had over forty books published (fiction and non-fiction), with nearly two million copies in print and translated into seventeen foreign languages. I've received awards for my work and had books featured in several national book clubs. I was Technical Director for movies, working with Orson Wells and William Friedkin (director of The Exorcist). Of Romany descent, I'm an authority on Gypsies and have written several books on them. I've lectured at colleges and universities and been the subject of articles in newspapers and magazines: New York Times, Los Angeles Times, New York Daily News, New York Sunday News, National Observer, Cleveland Plain Dealer, Look Magazine, Cosmopolitan, True, and others.

I've appeared on national television and radio talk shows and been on BBC-TV, England, RAI-TV, Italy, and CBC-TV, Canada. I appeared extensively on stage in England and played small character parts in movies in America. I taught courses at colleges and universities and have been a featured speaker at conferences and workshops. I'm listed in reference works including Contemporary Authors, Who's Who In America, Men of Achievement, and International Authors' and Writers' Who's Who.

Latest books are The Weiser Field Guide to Ghosts, The Spirit Book, Buckland's Book of Spirit Communications, Wicca For One, and Cards of Alchemy. A DVD version of my Wicca video has also recently been released: Rebirth of the Old Religion. A prolific author, I'm currently working on my autobiography. Today I live on a farm in north-central Ohio. Photo Credit: Gregory Ford

4.0 out of 5 stars The Magick of Chant-O-Matics, January 4, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Magick of Chant O Matics (Mass Market Paperback)
While the title may sound goofy, these chants definitely tie into some kind of high power. I wish Buckland had gone into a little more detail--how many times to repeat each chant, do you chant all chants given, can you do two or more different chants at a sitting--and a pronunciation guide or phonetic spellings would have been helpgul. He's style of writing almost makes this sound too good to be true, but it works.

5.0 out of 5 stars Definately Use with Caution --- It really Works!!!, November 1, 2006
I have had this book for at least 10 years, but started using it two years ago. I am very careful when I use these chants because it does not always come in the form you expect. Some effects are bad and good. I always try to do positive chants because there is Karma and it does come back to you worse than what you put out (it comes quicker with the chants for some reason). My only issue with these chants is that you don't know how things are going to end up once it unfolds -- meaning there is no control over the outcome.

I have done chants for myself to obtain money and for purification of my home. They worked well -- with no problems. I recited a chant to a friend over the phone (because she was looking for a job)and 3 minutes later she received a call from a company she interviewed with 2 weeks prior. She got the job. She had been searching for a job for at least 2 months. That was too ironic.

On the other hand, I used a chant to bring money to another friend (because she was in need) and something negative happened to her. The chant was done with her permission, of course. She ended up getting into a car accident and is now going to sue the person that hit her vehicle. She injured her back in the accident. There were other people in the car with her, but they did not get hurt. So, I refuse to do anything for anyone else unless it is of healing nature.

Now I use with caution. I still love this book a lot. I use it on an as-needed basis -- for healing and purification. Hope this review was helpful to you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Definitely Works, December 11, 2002
By A Customer
At first sight, this book looks like something you'd find in a bargain bin or clearance section. Whoever wrote this must have some imagination, let alone a twisted sense of humour, right? Well, here's the good part.....IT WORKS!!! This is a healthy skeptic talking now and I don't buy into anything easily, especially if the author is already known. The key words are "Healthy Skepticism" which you need when you review this book. Don't buy it out of desparation, but at the same time don't dismiss it out of ignorance and pride. Keep an open mind and start with a simple chant. Be open if the chant doesn't work right away. Some desires take time to manifest because there are other factors and players involved. Everything is a domino effect. Remember also that we don't always get what we want just because we want it. Sometimes maybe to save us from pain or maybe because there is something better coming. From "my" experiences these chants do work. I've used several already from finding a new job, getting a loan paid back to me, and eliminating negative people. The only main thing this book could use is a rewrite. Some of the chants are hard to pronounce and the procedures could be explained better. I found myself asking "what if" questions a lot, but nevertheless, the chants still worked. So as anyone would say, you be the judge.
