* One of the movies in the Urotsukidoji/Legend of the Overfiend Hentai anime series has our hero squaring off against a mad scientist whose father was deeply involved in trying to bring occult science to the Nazis. In one scene, Hitler himself is seen upbraiding the father for his failure to produce immediate results.

** Fan-made ''TabletopGame/GeniusTheTransgression'' has an interesting variant; while it follows the same idea than in both versions of the ''World of Darkness'' that no supernatural critter was behind the Third Reich itself, the game also introduces the concept of Manes and Bardos, which is that whenever an idea is discredited, the brute creative energy freed by its death results in the birth of an EldritchLocation and creatures who ''do'' follow that idea. As such, when the Nazi ideology was discredited, this immmediately gave birth to an entire organization of Nazi mad scientists and sorcerers, but this group didn't actually existed until ''after'' the Third Reich's fall.

* Another little known adventure ''VideoGame/PrisonerOfIce Call of Cthulhu: Prisoner of Ice]]'' had Nazis attempting to use [[Creator/HPLovecraft Lovecraftian]] [[EldritchAbomination horrors]] as a secret weapon in war.

* In ''VideoGame/{{Inscryption}}'' and the related ARG, it's eventually revealed that the Nazis created some from of DoomsdayDevice whose activation code was hidden in a pack of Karnoffel cards Hitler carried with him at all times. Something about the Karnoffel Code is decidedly supernatural as, once encoded on a floppy disk, the resulting OLD_DATA caused the game characters to gain sentience and become hostile to one another. One character even claims the OLD_DATA is a digitized form of Satan.

* ''The Spear'' by Creator/JamesHerbert is an espionage Thriller about an ex-Mossad agent (though he's neither Israeli nor Jewish) turned Security Consultant who, while investigating the murder of another Mossad agent, uncovers a Neo-Nazi cult who believed Himmler was the real brains behind the Nazis, and are attempting to bring him back to life using TheLanceOfLonginus.

This is actually more plausible than it sounds. The Swastika is one of the [[NonNaziSwastika oldest symbols]] in many religions, including Hinduism, and also became significant in some occult groups. Nazism's roots are arguably traceable to an occult group called the Thule Society. A primary focus of the Thule Society was a claim concerning the origins of the Aryan race, as the descendants of {{Atlantis}} (sometimes called Thule), depending on which rumour you listen to. A lot of the senior Nazis, most notoriously SS head Heinrich Himmler, were intensely interested in the occult. Himmler followed a religion called Armanenschaft which was, according to its believers, the original religion of the ancient Aryans, which later evolved into Myth/NorseMythology and Hinduism.

* ''VideoGame/TheNewOrderLastDaysofEurope'':
** Esoteric Nazism is one of the game's many ideological alignments, associated primarily, though not exclusively, with the SS. While there are no supernatural elements in the game (an [[AlternateHistoryNaziVictory alternate history of a Cold War between the US and Nazi Germany]]), the ideology does believe in a fair bit of mysticism about the Aryan race, more pronounced in certain sub-ideologies than others. For some "[=EsoNaz=]" leaders, it's mostly about secular [[TheSpartanWay Spartanism to build a "stronger" Germany]], but Josias zu Waldeck und Pyrmont is obsessed with finding ancient Aryan artifacts while ruling Reichskommissariat Kaukasien as a totalitarian slave state, Sergey Taboritsky turns Russia into a cult devoted to a long-dead heir to the Romanov line should he reunite the shattered nation, Isabel Martínez de Perón in Argentina is a pawn of the mad mystic José López Rega (which actually happened in real life), and Heinrich Himmler [[spoiler:wants to start WorldWarIII in order to [[RestartTheWorld remake the world in his image]]]].
** Beyond the Esoteric Nazi sphere, Niccolò Giani is a potential successor to Galeazzo Ciano as Duce of Italy. His ideology is classified as Fascist Mysticism, a sub-branch of vanilla (non-Nazi) fascism, and he is the radical with the Quadrumvirate that unseats Ciano, seeking to build a purified state where fascism took on spiritual importance.

* ''Literature/Area51'': The Nazis were aided/manipulated by secret aliens on Earth, pursuing ancient mythical artifacts that turn out to be lost alien technology, and were motivated with a belief in Thule, which is essentially a Germanic Atlantic per their view. Additionally the real Thule Society (an early occult group that some leading Nazis were members of) is described as the force behind the Nazi Party driving this. The occult beliefs that some Nazis like Himmler held are highlighted.

UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler himself was pretty skeptical of the occult and notions of mystical powers, and restricted secret societies out of fear that they would threaten the power of the Nazi Party, but nevertheless tried to get his hands on TheSpearOfDestiny mostly for propaganda value. Hitler's own religious beliefs are a matter of some dispute, not least because of contradictions in his own writings, but it's generally agreed that he favored a mix of Germanic paganism and "Positive Christianity."

* In the live-action adaptation of ''Series/{{Witchblade}}'', it is mentioned that not only was Hitler a collector of objects of power, including the titular Witchblade, but he was a wielder of TheLanceOfLonginus[=/=]SpearOfDestiny, as well.

* ''Series/TheBurningZone'': “Midnight of the Carrier”: Neo-Nazis plan to use special lenses that can see energy signatures as a weapon.
* ''Series/{{Danger 5}}'' completely embraces the camp potential of this trope, particularly in the episode "Fresh Meat for Hitler's Sex Kitchen", in which Hitler uses {{blood magic}} to magically turn his opponents into evil blonds. The plan is foiled when his blood sample is tainted by "impure" Swiss blood. And [[LittleKnownFacts as everyone knows]], Swiss blood is [[YodelLand made of money]].
* One of the historical vignettes in episode 3 of ''Series/GoodOmens'' shows a small group of Nazis trying to gather any occult artifacts that might help win the war, including Agnes Nutter's book of prophecies.

'''Mr. Glozier:''' The Fuhrer also wants the HolyGrail. And TheSpearOfDestiny, if you should run across them.



* The season three episode of ''Series/{{Sanctuary}}'', aptly titled "Normandy", has Helen, Watson, Griffen and Tesla (from the war office in England) going against Hitler's own abnormal hunting group, seeming helped by Druitt, who were going to use a Fire Elemental to stop the D-Day Invasion. Watson points out the irony of Hitler going after the imperfect creatures to help in his quest for a perfect world.

* Given the way it blends real world occult history and LovecraftianFiction, this trope's inclusion in the ''Radio/PleasantGreenUniverse'' was inevitable. Nazi occultists play a prominent role in the BackStory, as the current incarnation of the British paranormal defense agency known as "[[GovernmentAgencyOfFiction The Department of Works]]" was created to fight them (though they have antecedents going back at least to the 1600s). RealLife Thule society member and pre-Hitler national socialist Rudolf von Sebbotendorf briefly turns up in the adaptation of ''Literature/TheCaseOfCharlesDexterWard'' as [[spoiler:a candidate for a previous host of the spirit of the ancient Mesopotamian sorcerer Ipku-Aya]].

* This is the premise of ''TabletopGame/{{AEWWII}}'', with the twist that the Allies have their own equivalents - the British have druids and wizards, while the Americans have drafted Native American shamans and even skinwalkers.
* In the sixth edition ''TabletopGame/{{Champions}} Universe'' source book, it were the mystic energies released by a backfiring ritual attempted by Nazi mystics that ushered in the age of modern superhumans on May 1st, 1938. While 'costumed adventurers', including ones with the occasional odd talent or unusual technology, had been a part of the setting for decades previous, it was only afterward that the first people across the world started to spontaneously develop genuine ''superpowers''.
* Contested Ground Studios ''TabletopGame/ColdCity'' is set in Berlin in 1950, after the Second World War went weird. [[StupidJetpackHitler Twisted technology]] and occult research have made Lovecraftian and other horrors real, so the U-bahn tunnels being full of failed [[SuperSoldier super-soldier]] experiments, [[EverythingsDeaderWithZombies zombies]] and [[EldritchAbomination eldritch abominations]] can be the least of your worries. Given that the party can consist of any combination of American, British, German, French and Russian personnel, that list of worries includes ''each other''.
* In the setting of ''TabletopGame/{{Deadlands}}'', the trope is taken to its logical (?) extreme. One of the Hell on Earth rulebooks explains (from the future perspective) that the Nazis used their own brand of [[MadScientist Mad Science]], [[spoiler: creating devices powered, among other things, by souls of war prisoners.]] Furthermore, [[spoiler: Hitler actually intends to raise the Fear Level all over Europe to such levels that he can bring [[BigBad the Reckoners]] to Earth. And then control them.]]
* ''TabletopGame/DeltaGreen'' features the Karotechia, the bare remnants of Hitler's occult program hiding out in South America. They have a perfect example of the Ubermensch (thanks to his discovery of a cannibal tribe's immortality rituals) and Hitler's third book, ''Mein Triumph'' -- dictated by the spirit of an "ascended" Hitler himself ([[spoiler:who's actually just Nyarlathotep being a dick as usual]]). Actions against Nazi occultism in World War II played a significant role in the eventual state of Delta Green.
** Defied in ''TabletopGame/WorldWarCthulhu'',While the investigators may encounter the occasional ex-Ahnenerbe SS officer who has uncovered some pre-human tomb, his activities are unsanctioned and as aberrant as those of any other dabbler in the Mythos. There were no magical sacrifices in the concentration camps; the Nazis did not use magic or the Mythos. Keepers are instructed to avoid overusing Nazi exploitation of the Mythos, for it changes the game into an alternate-history weird war, and turns the Mythos into something rational, predictable, diminishing the horror.
* ''TabletopGame/{{GURPS}}'':
** In the ''TabletopGame/{{GURPS}} Infinite Worlds'' setting, "SS Raven Division" are amongst the major villains, using psychic/mystic world-jumping to infiltrate other worlds. They hail from Reich-5, one of a handful of [[Main/AlternateUniverse alternate timelines]] where the Nazis won the war.
** ''TabletopGame/{{GURPS}} Weird War II'', one of a series of supplements covering World War II as a setting. ''GURPS Weird War II'' discusses and goes into detail ''almost everything discussed under this trope,'' as well as how to use, mix, and blend them together to make a customized Weird Alternate UsefulNotes/WW2 for your role playing pleasure. The supplement is not related to the Savage Worlds/D20 setting below - they just borrowed the name, with permission. That's why there's an ad for the setting on the inside cover of the GURPS book - it was one of the requirements for permission.
** In the [[FunctionalMagic magic-riddled]] [[{{Pulp}} 1930s]] setting of ''TabletopGame/GURPSThaumatologyAgeOfGold'', the Nazis are a threat and a source of antagonists and evil plots — and they very much want to use and abuse magic. However, they aren't quite as formidable as they could be, because they tend to reject any and all ideas about magic which happen to have Jewish or "non-Aryan" origins. Still, Nazi archaeologists with supporting squads of stormtroopers are bad enough, and can be very dangerous if they locate the right artefacts.



* The ''Series/StargateSG1'' TabletopRPG supplement for the first season established that the Giza Stargate was used during WWII by Hitler, who, intrigued by its "occult possibilities", transported troops through it to literally "conquer Heaven", establishing an off-world Nazi colony that [[LostColony presumably persists to this day]].
** RetCons in the movies' material have rendered this impossible, however, as it is established that the gate was captured and transported to the US before the war started.
* Noticeably averted in the ''TabletopGame/OldWorldOfDarkness''; after a few missteps in 1st Edition, White Wolf came to think that making World War II and the horrors of the Holocaust the master work of any one type of supernatural critter would undermine the utter inhumanity of it. So, if supernatural creatures were involved, they were just picking at the sides of the suffering or trying to stop it (Vampires need human "cattle" to survive, [[IWasJustPassingThrough so stopping them from being wiped out is in their best interests]]), and not the grand architects of genocide. This made it pretty much the only event in the [=WoD=]'s history that ''wasn't'' entirely due to some NPC's master plan.
** If anything, the big problem was supernaturals deciding there might be something to this Hitler thing, only to later have to be purged out of their own ranks by members who knew better. This was a particular problem for the Get of Fenris, the Verbena, and the Progenitors.

* ''VideoGame/CallOfDutyZombies'' started out as this, back in the ''World at War'' era of Zombies. Back when it was Nazi Zombies, the aforementioned undead were the result of genetic experiments from the Germans with Element 115 (with a light smattering of otherworldly possession and corruption on the side) with the trope coming into effect with the revelation of the zombies being controlled by a little German girl within the Aether. A little girl one Edward Richtofen would swap minds with and control the zombies himself, putting this trope into ''full'' effect. This would continue on until the last map of ''Black Ops II'', which would reset the worlds and instead cast the zombies as the minions of a group of extradimensional Lovecraftian beings known as the Apothicons, removing the trope entirely.
** Later iterations of the Zombies submode also often disregard these origins[[note]]Exo Zombies are the result of a chemical weapon gone wrong, while Infinite Warfare Zombies are just enemies in a set of films - demonically enhanced films, but films nevertheless[[/note]]. That is, until Sledgehammer Games' [[VideoGame/CallOfDutyWWII Nazi Zombies]] ([[NamesTheSame yep, the same name]]) took the undead to their roots once more, casting them as experiments of the Nazis and powered by an eldritch energy known as Geistkraft, sourced from the legendary sword of Frederick Barbarossa.

Initially, they are trying to find Atlantis for its source of {{orichalcum}}, a mystic substance capable of unleashing energy equal to a uranium bomb- with just a single bead of the substance.

* British writer Creator/DennisWheatley (''The Devil Rides Out'', among numerous others) used the Ghostapo trope in at least one of his novels: First, in ''Strange Conflict'', in which the Nazis used the services of a Haitian Witch Doctor to get the routes for Allied convoys from the minds of the people who knew about them. The Duke de Richleau and his companions put a stop to it.
* Creator/DavidBrin's really rather dark AlternateHistory short story ''[[http://web.archive.org/web/20120712170314/http://www.davidbrin.com/thor1.htm Thor Meets Captain America]]'', later adapted into comic form as ''The Life-Eaters'', has the Nazis murder almost 17 million people as part of a gigantic Necromantic ritual intended to bring the Norse Gods to life, fighting on the side of Hitler. And it works. [[WordOfGod The author has said]] this was an attempt to make Holocaust have some actual sense for the Nazis and to create a scenario for a "Nazis Win" AlternateHistory anthology (Brin simply didn't believe that outcome was possible without [[AlienSpaceBats some bizarre twist]] to overcome the Allies' economic and logistical advantages).
* An early novel by horror author Creator/RobertRMcCammon, ''Literature/TheNightBoat'', features a U-boat full of very angry, very hungry Nazi zombies created by HollywoodVoodoo.



* The AlternateHistory novel ''SS-GB'' {{subvert|edTrope}}s this when the German officer tells the hero that he had to present atomic bomb research as something occult to get high ranking Nazis to fund it. Only by presenting it as Germany's destiny written in the stars does Himmler agree to it. Note that there is no real occult magic or outlandish technology in this novel; everything is extremely plausible.

Nothing overtly supernatural happens, except for the German officer tells the hero fact that a demon named Dieter is assigned to oversee the development of young Adolf, as a sort of reverse guardian angel. The narrative is actually presented as his personal recollection. Toward the end Dieter is relieved of his responsibilities, and he had mentions rumors of them eventually being taken over by Satan himself.

* In ''Literature/DoraWilkSeries'', it's said that Hitler was
extremely plausible.interested in raising an elite commando of werewolves, and had his warlocks invent a collar - called the SS Wehrwolf curse - that would force them to fight for him.

* In ''The Dragon in the Sword'' by Creator/MichaelMoorcock, the protagonists, while looking for the Holy Grail, meet Hitler, Goering and Goebbels conducting a pagan summoning ceremony. They manage, without really trying, to change the course of the war by giving the trio a "sign" that they should invade Russia before inventing the atomic bomb.
* In ''The Dreamthief's Daughter'' by Creator/MichaelMoorcock, the Nazis want the protagonist's family sword because they believe [[spoiler:correctly]] that it is a mystic artifact of cosmic significance.

** If anything, the big problem was supernaturals deciding there might be something to this Hitler thing, only to later have to be purged out of their own ranks by members who knew better. This was a particular problem for the Get of Fenris, the Verbena, and the Progenitors.

** Marvel Comics also had Baron Von Strucker attempt to attack America with a submarine full of Nazi vampires. Unfortunately for them, the submarine got sunk off the Louisiana coast and they spent 70 years at the bottom of the sea. By the time Comicbook/CaptainAmerica and Comicbook/{{Jubilee}} found them, they were nothing but dust and hate.

** In-universe, Hitler himself apparently has no real belief in the occult or advanced technology (as in real life). Erskine tells [[TheHero Steve]] that Hitler simply uses Norse symbology as propaganda, while Schmidt genuinely believes in the Asgardians.
