TheoFantastique and the Otherkin

I had the pleasure of meeting John Morehead at last year’s Cornerstone festival, and since then, his website, TheoFantastique, has become a regular read. As a fan of pop culture, cult media, and religion, I find always find his thoughts interesting and appreciate his exploration of what would otherwise be considered “fringe” topics, groups, and communities. For example, the so-called “otherkin” community, a group of individuals united by a shared belief in non-human, often fantastic or mythological, souls and selves.

    admit it, mostly it’s just because of the name isn’t it.

    isn’t it!?

    I’m glad you found the post on the Otherkin of interest. This is an interesting subculture, one that brings together my interests in new religions, fantastic literature and film, and hyper-real postmodern spiritualities. I’m not sure what Daniel was getting at with his comment above, but I hope my discussion of such things does indeed move it beyond the fringe.

    You and I just happen to share the same last name, that’s all.
