This new paradigm hinges on transitioning from narrow to expansive identities.

Dieses Buch deckt eine der größten Lügen dieser Welt auf, die weder vom Mainstream noch von der alternativen Szene thematisiert wird. Die Viruslüge ist nicht nur eine Abrechnung mit der todbringenden Schulmedizin, sondern auch mit den Ärzten des Widerstands, die nach wie vor an der Keimtheorie festhalten, mit der wir seit über 150 Jahren belogen werden. Alternative Ansätze, die im Gegensatz zur Schulmedizin das Bewusstsein mit einbeziehen, wie die Germanische Heilkunde, werden von den bekannten Ärzten des Widerstands bis heute ignoriert.

The Treasure of Abbot Thomas draws its listener into a labyrinth of ancient secrets, cryptic clues, and a warning that should never have been ignored. In this masterwork of antiquarian dread, M. R.

A gentleman stumbles upon a curious old diary—an innocent discovery, or the key to something far more disturbing? In The Diary of Mr. Poynter, M. R. James once again conjures an atmosphere thick with dread, beauty, and the uncanny. This is a tale where the most ordinary object can become a gateway to forces beyond reason, and where curiosity may lead to quiet terror.

Creativity, often romanticized as an elusive muse that graces a lucky few, is far more universal and accessible than we tend to believe. While some may picture the creative mind as the domain of eccentric geniuses, lost in thought or splattering paint in bursts of chaotic inspiration, the truth is that creativity is a fundamental human capacity—a cognitive tool available to all of us.

The Story of a Disappearance and an Appearance is M. R. James at his most disquieting: where festive streets darken quickly, dreams twist into warnings, and something grotesque walks just beyond the edge of understanding. Blending holiday cheer with a creeping sense of dread, this tale invites the listener to question what hides behind tradition, and what slips through the cracks of propriety. Laced with unease and subtle horror, it is not merely a ghost story—it is a disturbance in the fabric of the ordinary.

A sacred volume, a forgotten ritual, and the lingering presence of something not entirely gone— The Uncommon Prayer-book whispers of devotion turned to dread. M. R.
