Step into the strange with Theo and Quentin as Arcane Horizons launches a new series on the legendary Charles Fort—the man who cataloged the world's weirdest phenomena long before the term "UFO" even existed. From raining meat and fish to glowing skies and invisible intelligences, Fort challenged the scientific establishment by embracing “the damned”—anomalies too bizarre to explain yet too real to ignore.

In this introductory episode, we explore Fort’s rebellious life, his obsession with unexplained records, and his legacy as the father of Fortean thought. Learn how The Book of the Damned shaped modern paranormal investigation and why Fort remains a cult icon for skeptics and believers alike.

Whether you're a seasoned Fortean or just Fortean-curious, this episode will change the way you see the world—and maybe even what’s lurking just beyond it.
