In this episode, hosts Zoey Michaels and Seth Voorhees dive deep into the mind behind some of today’s most unsettling and thoughtful dark fiction. Seth draws on his background in sociology, psychology, and his time working as a social worker to shape stories that dig into the human psyche — trauma, morality, survival, and the struggle for redemption.

Their conversation zeroes in on Seth’s novel Immune: Rise of the Inflicted, a dystopian narrative about a world forever changed by a deadly illness — a world split between those untouched and those afflicted — and the enormous social and psychological upheaval that follows.

Rather than rely on surface-level horror, Seth and Zoey explore how the novel uses speculative fiction as a mirror for real human issues: grief, identity, societal breakdown, fear, prejudice, and even hope. Characters in this world wrestle with loss, alienation, guilt, and the possibility of rebuilding something new from the ashes.

More broadly, the episode touches on how Seth’s larger body of work consistently blends genre elements with social commentary — using dark, speculative settings to hold up a mirror to our own world and challenge readers to confront uncomfortable truths about humanity.

In short: this isn’t just about scares or dystopian thrills — it’s about using fiction to reflect on real humans, real pain, and real hope. Listeners of “Bloodlines & Broken Worlds” will come away with a deeper appreciation for how horror/dark fiction can dig into the very core of what it means to be human.
