THE OCCULT DESK
Fiction Writer Tells Podcast Host That Reality Outstrips Every Monster Story
Author Sean Lahey joins the MFTIC Research program to discuss the supernatural roots of his fiction, according to the episode listing.
THE INTERNET — Sean Lahey, a fiction writer and author of "Taming The American Horse" and "Native Monsters," has appeared as a guest on MFTIC Research, a Substack program whose full name is "My Family Thinks I'm Crazy," according to a post published on October 29.
The episode listing states that Mr. Lahey discussed the supernatural inspiration behind his fictional works. The host writes that the two men talked over mythology, and that reality is stranger than fiction and ultimately inspires all that people consider fiction.
The post adds that Mr. Lahey shared a multitude of paranormal anecdotes. The visible excerpt breaks off mid-sentence, and the particulars of those anecdotes are not reproduced here.
The episode title, however, points to some of the ground covered: a figure styled the "Wendigo Man," a subject described as "Eisenhower's Shaman," and the Gigas Codex, also known as the Devil's Bible. The listing offers no further detail about any of them, and no claim made in the episode can be assessed from the material available.
Readers wishing to learn what, precisely, the shaman told the President, or what the Wendigo Man did, are directed by the post to the full episode.
