The idea of childhood horrors is also the basis of adult fears. People have aversions to things like dolls and clowns, and it is peculiar how these things trigger memories of imaginary friends. The concept of our children being influenced by a malevolent force is all too real now that younger people are more in tune with ghosts in their machines as they find themselves glued to their phones and laptops. A parent’s greatest fear is losing a child to the darkness as the demons watch and wait for the moment a child loses its ability to connect. So, it turns to an imaginary friend that is neither a friend nor imaginary. These “familiars” reveal themselves during times of great duress while blurring the lines between adulthood and the children’s hour. Tonight on Ground Zero (7-10 pm, pacific time) Clyde Lewis talks with folklore storyteller and author, Steve Stockton about THE CHILDREN’S HOUR.

“The Season of the Witch” from Ground Zero with Clyde Lewis,  explores a fascinating intersection between historical events like the Salem witch trials and modern societal fears. Clyde Lewis delves into the idea that hysteria, political manipulation, and mass paranoia have been recurring themes throughout history, from the Puritan-era witch hunts to more contemporary incidents involving terrorism, mass shootings, and government overreach.

The episode reflects on how fear of the unknown—whether that be witches in 17th-century New England or terrorism in the 21st century—drives communities to scapegoat and accuse, often leading to disastrous consequences. Drawing from historical accounts, such as those of the Salem witch trials, and modern-day events like the post-9/11 political climate, Lewis explores how hysteria can be used as a tool for control and manipulation. The episode also raises thought-provoking questions about the patterns we see in society today, such as increasing governmental power and erosion of civil liberties, and how they echo the fear-driven justice systems of the past.

The narrative touches on the fragility of justice, the dangers of letting paranoia dictate societal actions, and the eerie similarities between past and present witch hunts. Lewis draws these parallels to caution listeners against allowing fear to lead to the erosion of due process and personal freedoms. It’s an intense, thought-provoking episode that encourages listeners to reflect on the ways in which history can repeat itself if we are not vigilant.

This episode is a deep dive into the dark side of mass hysteria, offering listeners a chilling reminder of how quickly fear can turn societies against their own, just as it did in Salem over 300 years ago.
