Knifepoint Horror

The legend of the Flying Dutchman has lingered and evolved for centuries, forming the basis of everything from a classic opera to characters and settings in film, TV, and even video games. This is that legend as seen from dry land, and through the lens of Knifepoint Horror.

Note to listeners: The content of this story is particularly grim, and may be very disturbing to some.

'An Oral History of Hell,' a story written before this podcast began, is a bleak, brutish tale of suspense related by a narrator condemned to Hell's wintry plain. The Grip, the Speaking Stones, the Far Mountains, the Perimeter, the Lie: In describing Hell's harsh geography and customs, Nicholas Strait also describes the events and people that brought him to damnation. His search for a way out must navigate madness, addiction, and the immutable hand of death.
