 | | When Evan became Lord Tredegar in 1934, and Lord of the estate, he began holding wild weekend parties attended by a curious mixture of the famous and the entirely unknown such as HG Wells, Marchesa Casati, Aleister Crowley, Prince Paul of Greece and Lord Alfred Douglas to name only a few. |
 | | His menagerie of animals at Tredegar included a boxing kangaroo, a honey bear, baboons that stalked the gardeners, an anteater, pigeons, birds of prey, which were often sent after suspected Nazi spy pigeons, and a parrot named "Blue Boy" who would sit on his shoulder. |
 | | He retired to his country seat, Tredegar Park in South Wales, and invited Aleister Crowley, the renowned occultist and magician, to prepare a spell. |
