Iron and Myth 20: Scaring the Hell Out of You

IS IT possible for a story to literally scare the Hell out of you?Every era has had its stories of monsters, demons, and gods. Those tales can teach some supernatural truth—sometimes by accident. That’s not to say that we can find the gospel in every tale of horror; as Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), author of the forthcoming novel Cruel Logic, observes, they are “reflections through a distorted lens of godless man.”Brian joins Dr. Judd Burton (www.BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant, and Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, to discuss our favorite examples of horror that manage to teach us something about the spiritual conflict around us.
