The Good Friends of Jackson Elias, Podcast Episode 254: Fat Face

The Good Friends of Jackson Elias, Podcast Episode 254: Fat Face (audio product)


254: Fat Face This episode is our discussion of Michael Shea’s Mythos tale, “Fat Face”. Originally published as a chapbook in 1987, this nasty little novelette has since been collected in countless anthologies. It’s probably sitting in one of those Mythos books on your shelf right now, waiting patiently for you. As well as being a great story in its own right, “Fat Face” is the inspiration...   [click here for more]

While Cayce’s work grew in fame following his death, becoming a cornerstone of the New Age movement, his origins were more humble. That’s not to say they weren’t filled with strange events.
