DOMINUS - Episode 1 - Tu Es Petrus
Shownotes
Dominus is a full cast Catholic horror podcast in which three Catholic priests, trapped in a remote Ontario mansion by a strange blizzard, must find a way to exorcise a demon before it escapes into the world. Unfortunately for them, the demon is a true believer, and therefore inoculated against Catholicism.
Dominus deals with elements of folk religion, queer identity, Catholicism in the global south, religious trauma, and loss of faith.
Episode summary: Father Olu is a beloved and reliable priest who, alongside strict academic Father Frederick and visiting activist priest Father Jonas, is asked to visit former parishioner Mary in secret in a remote estate north of Toronto.
Though they only intend to stay for a day, a sudden blizzard traps them on the grounds, as things slowly get worse in gruesome, unnatural ways.
Content Warnings: Catholic shame and religious elements, animal death, descriptions of gore, references to murder, references to masturbation, references to spousal abuse, implied familial abuse
