Episode 104 - Darragh Mason - The Dark Man, Folklore & The Crossroads

Welcome to Weird Web Radio! Once again back is the incredible D! That is Darragh Mason!  Darragh is here for his second time as a guest to talk about his new book Song of The Dark Man: Father of Witches, Lord of the Crossroads. We had a great time, and there are plenty of laughs intermingled in the deep dives through folklore, the Dark Man, the Devil in folklore, Irish myth, The Crossroads, and more! DARRAGH'S BIO: Darragh Mason is a multi-award-winning photographer, author, and researcher. He studied photography at Dublin City University and has traveled extensively across Asia, Europe, and America, where he has written articles and published his photography. His work has taken him to post-war countries such as Bosnia & Herzegovina and Kosovo. Darragh is particularly renowned for his photographic work on the Aghori Hindu sect and his research on the Djinn. Darragh also hosts the award-nominated podcast "Spirit Box", which explores topics of folklore, magic, and the spirit world. Beyond photography, he is the co-creator of the Sigil Engine, a technomantic art project. His book, "Song of the Dark Man, Father of Witches, Lord of the Crossroads", delves into the Dark Man as a devil-like figure in folklore and magic, exploring his role as trickster, initiatory guide of witches and creative force.
