The Pedlar Man - 2023 - 6/10
Seaside yarn.
The stranger arrives at the busy quay, bustling with tourists and locals.
Masks he has to sell, and the crowds, giddy with delight, buy and wear.
Recommended by friends of Machen, this unsettling short smacks of Aickman or Ligotti.
I wonder if the creators were aware of Thomas Tessier’s Father Panic’s Opera Macabre.
