Miss Hasse performed before large audiences conducting séances and managed to amass a fortune riding the wave of popularity of esoterica in the late 19th century. In 1895 she opened a publishing house "MISS HASSE" which specialized in pseudoscientific texts on psycho-phrenology palmistry hypnosis and other esoteric subjects.
