The Heresies of Radulf Burntwine: A Horror, Dark Fantasy, Medical Mystery Audio Drama Umberto Eco Meets H.P. Lovecraft in a world of Occult Academia, Laboratory Judaica. Heavily inspired by Jewish mythology, the world of Olam uses Hebrew, Arabic, Slavic and other real world languages and cultures to create a rich tapestry of a grim, fantastical, planet that doesn't sacrifice scientific accuracy or historicity. Theology and Pantheon: Shiga This lecture on the Theology and Pantheon of the Nagifim is the second in a series of Patreon bonus episodes intended to expand on the nature of the viral gods. This installment focuses on the surgeon god Shiga whose domain is madness and distortion of the mind. The Heresies of Radulf Burntwine sits at the intersection of dark fantasy, body horror, and forensic investigation. If you've ever wanted a podcast that treats disease and mythology with the same care as a true crime documentary, this is the show for you. Radulf is not a hero. He's a disgraced curmudgeonly cleric with a terrible bedside manner and more pride than sense. This episode contains: descriptions of cannibalism, bodily decomposition, eye trauma, tissue decay, grief, and the death of multiple characters including a child, suicide.

Tim and Frank take on a deceptively simple question: is Spider-Man actually a street-level superhero? What starts as a debate about subgenres turns into a much bigger conversation — about tone, stakes, and whether the label helps or hurts a character when your hero is literally swinging above the street. Beers of the Week Sam Adams Porch Rocker Lemon Radler (Frank) Stormalong Legendary Dry Hard Cider — Millis, MA (Tim) In this episode Sam Adams Porch Rocker returns — the annual visit, and this year it's slightly less tart (in a good way) Sam Adams's new can design — Sam covering his own letters with a raised mug (or is that Paul Revere? or Thomas Jefferson?)

Defining street-level: it's about the tone and the stakes, not the powers — Daredevil pounds the tar, Batman is technically anything but blue-collar Peter Parker's sci-fi problem: his origin is basically Fantastic Four, the web shooters make him genius-tier, and Frank once asked his dad to build a pair Kraven the Hunter's magic jungle potion goes golfing A live tally of Spider-Man's rogues gallery — chameleon, vulture, Doc Ock, Sandman, Lizard, Electro, Mysterio, Green Goblin, Kraven, Scorpion, Morbius, Venom — and where each one lands on street / middle / cosmic The verdict: 5 street, 6 in-between, 1 cosmic — Spider-Man's distribution skews low-end, but he's genuinely hard to pin down "Spider-Man is a street-level hero the same way Breaking Bad is a show about a chemistry teacher." — the Breaking Bad Test Why pigeonholing hurts long-lived characters, and why the supporting cast is really what makes a hero viable Reading from Superman: The Never-Ending Battle by Roger Stern — Clark Kent finally becomes Superman across an entire beautiful page of prose Find us at beerwithgeeks.com — like, subscribe, leave a rating, and tell a friend.

I hope you have your headtorch this week – cos we're going to some deep, dark places. Megan Bontrager's debut novel, The Sea Hides its Dead, is a story of a mysterious cave, an unprepared expedition, and the monstrous secrets they find within. It's shadowed by Lovecraft, it has big freaky monsters, and a whole deep mythology to unpick. In short it's my kinda story. The exact level of geekery I like to discuss. Discuss we do. Meghan and I talk about video game inspirations, global sea cults, monsters and mysteries in The Bible, and worst of all – sleazy academics. Plus, I give my honest opinion on spelunking!

Dennis Robinson is back, and he is not playing small. The Hive Head Studios creator has officially closed out a successful Kickstarter for Lycan: Solomon's Odyssey Chapters 1–4, the latest major step in his ambitious horror-mythology saga centered on Solomon, the world's first werewolf. The campaign ran from March 1 through April 1, 2026 and finished funded, giving readers another strong sign that Dennis is building something with real bite in the indie comics space. For those new to the series, Lycan: Solomon's Odyssey is not just a werewolf comic trying to coast on fangs and blood splatter. The book has been framed by Dennis and Hive Head Studios as a mix of horror, mythology, adventure, and history, following Solomon's long and painful journey after a desperate act transforms him into the first lycanthrope in human history. Solomon was born around 8,000 BC, and his story stretches through an alternate version of our world where folklore, monsters, magic, and gods are not just whispers in the dark—they are very real problems. That big-swing concept is a huge part of what makes the project stand out. Rather than staying stuck in one lane, the series keeps evolving. Chapter 2 brought in Arabic mythology, grief, PTSD, and magic. Chapter 3 expanded the universe with gods and cosmic horror, described by the official site as an alternate take on The Epic of Gilgamesh mixed with H.P. Lovecraft. Now, Chapter 4 sends Solomon into ancient Egypt, where he seeks out the gods themselves in hopes of finally finding a cure for his curse. Of course, this is Solomon we're talking about, so peace was never going to come easy. Instead, he runs into new weaknesses, new monsters, and more trials trying to tear him apart. And that's really the magic of Lycan. Dennis Robinson is using the werewolf myth not as a finish line, but as the front door to a much bigger story about pain, consequence, identity, survival, and the long shadow of history. Every chapter feels like it wants to ask a new question while still dragging Solomon deeper into the cost of what he has become. Dennis also brings a distinct creator energy to the table. According to Hive Head Studios, he's the creator/writer of the series, a founder connected to other geek-space projects, and a guy who clearly loves channeling horror, storytelling, and nerd passion into something personal and cinematic. That passion shows in Lycan's scope. This is not a safe little indie comic trying to whisper for attention. This is a full-throated monster odyssey trying to carve its name into the wall. So yeah, if you like your comics with mythology, monsters, blood, history, and enough ambition to make your pull list nervous, Lycan: Solomon's Odyssey should be on your radar. Dennis Robinson came back to the Comic Crusaders Podcast with a recently funded campaign, a growing universe, and plenty to talk about. And trust me, this wolf still has miles to go.

The Heresies of Radulf Burntwine: A Horror, Dark Fantasy, Medical Mystery Audio Drama Umberto Eco Meets H.P. Lovecraft in a world of Occult Academia, Laboratory Judaica. Heavily inspired by Jewish mythology, the world of Olam uses Hebrew, Arabic, Slavic and other real world languages and cultures to create a rich tapestry of a grim, fantastical, planet that doesn't sacrifice scientific accuracy or historicity. THORB Case 017 Sundering Strength Radulf journeys into the sub tropical steppe of the southern Kuruk Chenese Mountain Range. There he comes across a hermetic body builder and former circus and carnival strongman who knowingly and willingly subjected himself to infection, all in the pursuit of vanity and perfection. strength, it seems is a double edged sword. The Heresies of Radulf Burntwine sits at the intersection of dark fantasy, body horror, and forensic investigation. If you've ever wanted a podcast that treats disease and mythology with the same care as a true crime documentary, this is the show for you. Radulf is not a hero. He's a disgraced curmudgeonly cleric with a terrible bedside manner and more pride than sense. This episode contains: descriptions of cannibalism, bodily decomposition, eye trauma, tissue decay, grief, and the death of multiple characters including a child, suicide.

This week on Riff Worship, we descend into the slowest, darkest, and heaviest corner of extreme music history to explore the birth of Funeral Doom through Thergothon's 1994 cult classic, Stream from the Heavens!Before disbanding in 1993 and leaving the metal world behind, a group of Finnish teenagers completely rewrote the rulebook on heavy music. Fed up with the oversaturated early-'90s death metal scene, the Kaarina-based trio stripped away all speed and aggression to craft something entirely immersive, bleak, and atmospheric. Heavily influenced by the cosmic horror of H.P. Lovecraft and a mixture of non-metal sounds—ranging from Dead Can Dance and Joy Division to dark ambient and goth rock—Thergothon channeled their angst into a frozen, monolithic vacuum of pure negative emotion.Join us as we dissect the band's brief but legendary three-year history, trace the origins of Obscure Plasma Records and Avantgarde Music, and discover how a single, 40-minute album paved the way for bands like Skepticism, Evoken, and Mournful Congregation!Recommendations:CADY - Limitations of the Human FormThis Empty Flow - Magenta SkycodeSkepticism - StormcrowfleetMonumentuM - In Absentia ChristiAhab - The Boats of The Glen CarrigKakothanasy - MetagonismFollow Riff WorshipInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/riffworshippod/Twitter: https://x.com/RiffWorshipPodYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RiffWorshipPodCheck out our Official Playlists:Riffs on Repeat (Spotify)Riffs on Repeat (YouTube Music)Hits from the Crypt (Apple)

This week on Dads From The Crypt, we crack open 1993's Necronomicon—the Lovecraft-inspired horror anthology featuring stories of madness, monsters, and plenty of gooey practical effects. We dig into the wraparound with H.P. Lovecraft himself, break down all three twisted tales, and talk about whether this cult oddity is an underrated gem or just a slimy mess from the VHS era. Expect cosmic horror, gross creature effects, and the usual cryptkeeper-level nonsense from us along the way.Follow Dads From the Crypt!

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: July 30, 2020On this listener-requested episode of Weird Darkness, Darren Marlar narrates H.P. Lovecraft's last known story, "The Haunter in the Dark," the centerpiece of a three-part collaboration with fellow horror writer Robert Bloch.The episode opens with how the story came to be written. Robert Bloch, then a young admirer of Lovecraft, published "The Shambler From the Stars" in the September 1935 issue of Weird Tales, setting his tale inside Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos. Two months later, in early November 1935, Lovecraft answered the homage by writing "The Haunter in the Dark" and dedicating it to Bloch; the story ran in Weird Tales in December 1936 (Volume 28, Number 5). It was the last story Lovecraft is known to have written before he died on March 15, 1937, and Bloch eventually closed the trilogy in 1950 with "The Shadow of the Steeple." The story's epigraph comes from the second stanza of Lovecraft's own 1917 poem "Nemesis."From there, the narration follows Robert Harrison Blake, a writer and painter of weird fiction who leaves 620 East Knapp Street in Milwaukee and takes the upper floor of an old house on College Hill in Providence during the winter of 1934–35. Blake grows obsessed with a black, abandoned church across the city on Federal Hill — a steeple shunned by birds and feared by the Italian neighborhood around it — and eventually breaks in, finding the moldering relics of the Starry Wisdom sect, a cult that took root after Professor Enoch Bowen returned from Egypt in 1844 carrying an artifact called the Shining Trapezohedron. In the windowless tower he uncovers the stone itself, a four-inch red-striated polyhedron that opens like a window onto other worlds, resting beside the charred skeleton of Edwin M. Lillibridge, a Providence Telegram reporter who vanished inside the same building in 1893. Gazing into the crystal rouses the Haunter of the Dark — an avatar of Nyarlathotep that can move only in blackness and is driven back by light — and the rest of the tale tracks Blake's collapse into sleepwalking, scorched hair, and frantic diary entries as a violent August thunderstorm threatens the streetlights keeping the entity penned in. When the power fails over Providence at 2:12 in the morning, the thing leaves its steeple, and Blake is found dead at his desk the next day with bulging eyes and a face frozen in terror, his final scrawled line describing a three-lobed burning eye — after which the physician Dr. Dexter hurls the box and the glowing stone into the deepest channel of Narragansett Bay.

Sam, Dylan, and Dark Smith are back to break down: Dark Smith's job interview to become an escort and the loofah-color swinger code of Florida's villages, the Boyle Heights fire spilling Freon and ammonia while firefighters spray a blaze they can't reach (and the owner being a Karen Bass donor), a documentary trying to abolish the Electoral College, the deep origins of the Vatican built on top of Vatican Hill, the pagan goddess Cybele and the Anatolian mother god Magna Mater brought to Rome via the prophetic Sibylline Books after Hannibal's slaughter at Cannae, the blood-baptism bull-sacrifice rituals later dug up by archaeologists, H.P. Lovecraft's "The Rats in the Walls" and its cannibal cult, the serpent-shaped Vatican auditorium and the Pope's fish-head mitre tied to the Babylonian fish god Dagon (who turns out to be Godzilla), Sam's pitch for roller derby as the next great pro sport, the Iran war being "over" again with IAEA inspectors as the "milestone" achieved by undoing the milestone, Israel allegedly trying to assassinate the negotiators before Trump called them off, Nicki Minaj's distraction-death theory, JD Vance's Thiel-engineered glow-up, the Albanians tearing their country apart over Jared and Ivanka's island and Sam's theory it's about controlling the Strait of Otranto, the nu-metal psyop, military stock buybacks instead of R&D, Bezos prioritizing AI water over "baseline human comfort," and a woman who lost ten years of memory from straining too hard on the toilet.
