The Mariner: Featuring the Art of Caspar David Friedrich

A classic horror story reminiscent of Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven" and "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. This haunting narrative poem illustrates the life of a murderous sailor who battles the powerful and ancient Loa of the spirit world as they inhabit human flesh. In a terrifying revelation from the Black Madonna, the sailor discovers he is in reality a member of the Ghede. A chilling tale of possession and vodou lyrically demonstrating how fragile the veil is that protects the world of mankind from the spirit realm.
