In this episode, we dig into prions: misfolded proteins that don’t just make you sick, they rewrite your brain slowly and irreversibly. No bacteria. No virus. No real cure. Just a biological glitch that spreads by forcing healthy proteins to fold wrong, leaving the mind to unravel piece by piece.

Then we layer in Alice in Wonderland Syndrome, where perception itself can warp, rooms shrink, distances stretch, time stutters, and your own body stops feeling correctly sized while you’re fully awake. Together, it paints a brutal picture: sometimes the scariest “veil” isn’t supernatural at all, it’s the moment your brain stops being a reliable witness and starts turning reality into a funhouse with teeth.
