red eyed man
Sclera or iris?
Comment on He's never wrong
orenj@leminal.space 2 weeks agoDo you have the name of the book? My cousin was talking about the red eyed man his immediate family sees from time to time and I mentioned how it sounded like the hat man. Having a reference to a red eyed hat man would be sick to pull out in the next conversation

Actually yes! the Witch Cult in Western Europe by Margaret Alice Murray.
It’s a very odd book arguing that they weren’t seeing the devil and the witch trials were people worshipping what she calls the “Dianic cult”, like some ancient fertility gods with horns and stuff. But it does reference a lot of actual witch trials in the book and it’s fascinating.
