Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler (1900–1945) var en nyckelperson i Tredje riket. Hans ideologiska övertygelse, flit och administrativa skicklighet gjorde honom central i genomförandet av nazismens rasistiska terror. Genom SS byggde han upp en struktur som förenade paramilitär makt med ideologisk och kvasi-religiös symbolik.Himmler var djupt intresserad av ockultism, pseudohistoria och esoteriska idéer. Han såg SS som en andlig elit, kallad att återuppväcka en uråldrig germansk kraft som enligt honom gått förlorad genom kristendomen. I uppdraget ingick en jakt på den heliga graalen och Tors hammare.I detta avsnitt av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med Ulf Zander, professor i historia vid Lunds universitet, om Himmlers ockulta föreställningar. Detta avsnitt är ett betalt samarbete med History Channel, som den 5 juni klockan 20:00 har premiär för dokumentärserien Hitler's Treasure Hunters. I sex delar skildras hur SS-enheten Das Ahnenerbe sökte efter religiösa reliker och mytiska skatter, såsom den heliga Graalen och Tors hammare – föremål vars övernaturliga kraft skulle bidra till en tysk seger i kriget.Himmler drogs tidigt till nationalistiska och antisemitiska rörelser. Han anslöt sig till nazistpartiet 1923 och gick med i SS 1925. Redan 1929 blev han dess ledare, Reichsführer-SS. År 1936 blev han chef för hela det tyska polisväsendet och byggde en effektiv terrorapparat.Himmler betraktade kristendomen som en främmande och försvagande religion, påtvingad germanerna utifrån. Han var särskilt kritisk till kristendomens betoning på förlåtelse, självuppoffring och jämlikhet – idéer han ansåg skadliga för en krigförande, aristokratisk elit. I stället förespråkade han en återgång till en förkristen, germansk religiositet byggd på ära, blod och jord.Ceremonier inom SS präglades av nyhedniska inslag. Vid bröllop kunde till exempel en svärdsceremoni ersätta kristna löften, och vid begravningar hyllades den avlidnes koppling till förfäder snarare än till Gud. Denna symboliska brytning med kristendomen var inte fullständig, men markerade ett försök att ersätta kyrkans institutioner med SS:s egen kultstruktur.Slottet Wewelsburg blev ett andligt centrum för SS. Himmler ville göra det till högkvarter för en framtida SS-orden. Slottet omgestaltades i rituell stil, och i tornets runda sal lades ett golv med symbolen Svarta solen – kopplad till nazistisk mysticism. Ett kryptliknande rum ska ha använts för att bevara aska från SS-ledare, som en del av Himmlers kultliknande vision.Bild: SS-ledaren Heinrich Himmler (i mitten) anländer tillsammans med Gauleiter Rudolf Jordan (till vänster) och SS-Obergruppenführer August Heißmeyer till Quedlinburgs domkyrka för en nattlig ceremoni till minne av kung Heinrich I:s dödsdag, den 1 juli 1938. Händelsen ägde rum som en del av den nazistiska kulten kring den tidiga tyska historien och dess symboler. 2 juli 1938. Källa: Bundesarchiv, Bild 183-H08445.

This week we have a look at the 2000 horror film GingerSnaps. This is Episode #454! Ginger Snaps is a 2000 Canadian supernatural horror film directed by John Fawcett and written by Karen Walton, from a story they jointly developed. The film stars Emily Perkins and Katharine Isabelle as Brigitte and Ginger Fitzgerald, two morbid teenage sisters whose relationship is tested when Ginger (who has started her period for the first time) is attacked and bitten by an unknown animal, and then later, during the next full moon, slowly starts to transform into a werewolf. The supporting cast features Kris Lemche, Jesse Moss, Danielle Hampton, John Bourgeois, Peter Keleghan, and Mimi Rogers.Ginger Snaps received a limited theatrical release in May 2001. Despite modest box office receipts, the film was a critical success. It has since amassed a cult following and has been reexamined for its feminist themes. It was followed by a sequel, Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed, and a prequel, Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning, which were filmed back-to-back and both released in 2004.This week's endorsements:Julia - Severance and The TraitorsTony - Warlung, Scorpion Child, Trick r Treat Non-Special-Edition Version, Gothic Slayers, Companion, The GorgeDrew - The MatronBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/castle-of-horror-podcast--4268760/support.
