EP. #1273 INFECTUS: The 5,000-Year Virus of Evil
Evil isn’t a monster—it’s a virus. In Infectus: Bedtime Stories of Horror, Todd C. Elliott traces one demonic contagion from the first sitar on the Ganges to Beatlemania’s scream. Thirteen linked tales reveal how humanity’s greatest inventions—music, empire, religion, pop culture—mutated the infection, not destroyed it. From colonial vampires to undead children, the parasite wears civilization’s face. On Strange Planet, Elliott exposes the dark thread stitching history’s nightmares: progress is just the curse evolving. Is mass media the final host? And if innocence is Patient Zero, what’s the cure for a pandemic older than time?
GUEST: Louisiana-born gothic maestro Todd C. Elliott crafts nightmares where history bleeds into myth. Author of Infectus: Bedtime Stories of Horror—a 5,000-year anthology of demonic contagion—he’s compared to King, Lovecraft, and Rice, yet his humid, cinematic voice is singularly his. His nonfiction bombshells, A Rose By Many Other Names (JFK’s overlooked witness) and Axes of Evil (the Ax-Man murders), unearth real conspiracies that mirror his fiction’s unseen hand. Elliott doesn’t scare with ghosts; he infects with the truth that civilization itself may be the monster.
