Somnolites

I’ve long been fascinated by mesmerism, and in today’s show, I’m going to focus on those who are on the receiving end of this practice. I’m talking of somnolites, the fancy name for those in a state of hypnotic sleep.

This week’s story is called “The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar,” and it was written by Edgar Allan Poe.

This episode was researched and written by Lindsey Morse. Our theme music was composed by Graeme Ronald.
