Devilry

Written by Henry Colburn in 1839, this short story is a near perfect rendition of folk belief in Werewolves put to pen.

All Hallows Eve, the night the dead wander the earth. Traditionally it was believed the spirits of dead relatives returned. Some to do penitence, some to say goodbye to loved ones, and some... Some returned for vengeance.

A select reading of the poetry of Edgar Allen Poe, to get you through while we are traveling without internet

What is the Nature of perception? How does it relate to reality? And are science and magic the similar than we understand?

The year was 1971, Puharich had been studying Extrasensory perception now for around twenty years, and when he heard of Uri Geller, he took the first flight he could to see for himself, the man who could predict the future and move matter with his mind. When he went to that night club in Tel Aviv he was not sure what to expect, but his hopes were high. And Uri did not disappoint. Coming on stage, he announced his first demonstration would be what he called “eyeless sight”.

The small market town of Bungay in the UK is today a quite respite from the common bustle of the outside world. And as with any old town, it has its ghosts, whispered about in passing stories. Signs in the towns center put it on display and wind vines display its form. That of a large black dog, with crazed eyes, mangy hair, and a long black tail. It is known locally, as Black Shuck, and one Sunday in August of 1577, it came to call on the church goers of Bungay.

Demonic possession often takes a lethal overtone in many cases, the more playful sort of possession has been known among fairy spirits and those of the elemental or deamon type of creatures talked about before in previous podcasts. These possessions are often much more obscure, like the fay themselves, they seem more interested in trickery, confusion, and misguiding.140 years ago however, in the little town of Watseka, something happened that would cause it to be remembered forever after, as the Watseka Wonder.

Everyone has bad dreams, there’s no denying. And others have dreams that feel like they are real, and upon waking have difficulty distinguishing between dream and wakefulness. Vivid as they are, their effect eventual fades with the forceful gravity of reality. But what do you call a dream that incorporates reality? What do you do when autonomous elements within the dream seek to harm you? What do you do when the Nightmare is real?

“No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under the conditions of absolute reality; even Larks and Katydids are supposed by some, to dream. Hill House, not sane, stood by itself against its hills, holding darkness within; it had stood so for eighty years and might stand for eighty more. Within, walls continued upright, bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and doors were sensibly shut; silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone. “ So opens Shirley Jacksons monumental work The Haunting of Hill House, a phantasmic look into the horrors that lurk both within the stone and wood of ancient habitation, as well as those that lurk within our own mind. In it, the house becomes a metaphor for the main protagonist’s life. Trapped by circumstance, the house represents to Eleanor both an escape from her tragic life, as well as a trap from which she is unwilling to be released. We are left wondering by books end, is what she see’s there all a part of

Were in the past we have dealt with manifestations of creatures in the liminal spaces of reality, here we disembark from the human world with all its mystery and wonder and look up to heaven, or down into the depths of Hell. And there is no better guide for us on this journey than the Warrens. With the recent passing of Lorraine, it is perhaps most fitting that we should explore the subject of Demonology, as seen by the 20th century’s most famous demonologists. They often found themselves listening to the most startling of tales, while consoling and advising the people they had just met on how they might be able to rid themselves of their unwanted apparitions. From this, the Warrens build a reputation unrivaled in the Paranormal world even today. Before there were “Ghost Hunters” Before there were bigfoot hunters, or UFOlogists. Before the cascade of unwarranted media friendly hacks, each one proclaiming a haunting under every nock and cranny. There was the Warrens, with only their faith and a few antiquated

Whispers are heard of such creatures that exist as some kind of manifestation of our psyche. Practices today still produce the strange results of our fore fathers manifesting incorporeal beast which are encountered today, if only we would look in the right places. Research on hallucinogenic substances such as DMT and Psilocybin Mushrooms have recorded multiple people who insist they have encountered intelligence's which were wholly outside themselves. Extreme seclusion practiced by some Orthodox Christian hermits and Buddhist monks have given accounts of seeing visions while far away from their fellow man. Notable amongst the bible believers is the account of Christs forty day fast, culminating in his vision of Satan, who tempts him with the desires of the world. Practitioners of sensory deprivation are familiar with the strange thoughts and visions which arise with dampening of the senses. Voices, thoughts, dreams, all flood together with the lose of the body in the warm waters of the pitch-black tank, leav

Balquhidder has always been seen as a “Thin Place” as the Celts say, were the boundary between Heaven and Earth is naturally not as robust as the rest of the world. All of this Rev. Kirk likely knew when he wrote his second book, for which he would be better remembered Today. The Secret Commonwealth, which weaved together strange tales of a race of people who once dwelt beside mankind. A magical and noble people, who lived in the hills and trees of the wood, and under the mounds of the earth, who demanded respect, and offered good luck to those who gave it, and suffering to those who did not. They were the Fiery Folk. And in 1692, in the same year that Robert Kirk published his book, the little people carried him away to their land somewhere into the twilight of reality, never to be seen again.

Fixed the media issues and republished. Like many of our subjects, obscured by media, Hollywood, and modern fantasy, fables of the dragon languish behind fictional depictions of physical manifestations of fire breathing winged serpents, most are content to regurgitate Tolkien like fairytales. The Dragon of folklore is a far richer and vibrant creature. For instance, two troupes normally follow the dragon where ever he is found around the world is that he is prone to be found around water rather than to breath fire and if slain, their body melts away leaving a putrid stench. The Chinese dragon which was often praised for ending droughts by chasing clouds into the much-needed areas and has also been known to fall dead from the sky at times, and the villagers in reverence would cover its body with straw mats. It would disappear shortly after. In the aforementioned tale of Tiamat, she was the embodiment of the salt-waters, the originator of all life.

Our venerable for bearer Rev. Montague Summers eagerly devoured the subject of the European Werewolf in a single manuscript, and much of what we now recount and know of the subject is from his delicate mind. He studiously pointed out that the origin of the shapeshifter is nothing new, it existed from the dawn of creation, and as we will see, existed even to this day. He saw the creature as he saw the world, a direct dichotomy of good and evil, black and white. The Shapeshifter was one who denied his humanity, who used unsound and unholy devices to achieve his evil ends. He scorned God and his creation. He distained his fellow man and desired his ultimate destruction. He was a blasphemer, a heretic, a reviler. Many were his devise to change, the most common being a pelt of a wolf, made into a coat or belt to be fastened around him. Sometimes it was a special cream that was rubbed all over the body that allowed the transformation to take place. Often times it was the Devil himself who provided these malicious

Steve Cook of WTCM-FM in Traverse City recorded a song for April fool’s day in 1987 called The Legend. The song recounts a strange myth whispered by his friends and family. The joke was on him when he became inundated with stories from listeners who claimed to have seen a strange dog or wolf like creature which stood on its hind legs. The song took on new life however when Grand Rapids Press ran an article about an unknown animal near Luther which ripped apart screens and mangled door frames trying to enter the small cabin in the middle of the woods. The Michigan Department of Natural Resources investigation ruled out a bear and said it was some kind of unknown Canine. Those versed in the Occult might see a link to Sabine Barin-Gould’s recounting of the Baltic legends of werewolves that would try force their way into homes at night. If they succeeded, they would kill everyone inside. Music by Kevin Macleod https://soundcloud.com/kevin-9-1 "Shadowlands 1 - Horizon", "Shadowlands 2 - Bridge", "Shadowlands 3
