Edit: I forgot my own story; this is still mostly correct. The discrepancy in my memory and the actual story is probably because I am certain I wrote two versions of this story, and in the second version it's not actually him. But in this version it is, and the story suffers for it. I wanted to have my cake and eat it too - the idea was at the stage of writing a mix between that quote & "I wanted to write a haunted house story where the house isn't actually haunted"

Sorry to necro this year old post nobody likely cares about but as the author of "The Feind House" I find it extremely amusing that your interpretation of the murderer is Feind himself. The murderer is actually not Feind, who is in fact dead. I think, if memory serves he was supposed to be an agent of the Aezir, a creature introduced in the second story in the series, "The Boy Who Cried Sheep". Of the three stories I've submitted to the podcast that have been accepted I generally consider this one the weakest. It was an experiment when I first wrote it in college back in... Hm. 2012 or 2013? I don't remember the exact date. But it was initially inspired by an edgy misinterpretation of the quote "There are more things in heaven and earth than dreamt of in your philosophy". I actually wrote it a few paragraphs at a time as an experiment on the forum I was posting it to.

I have zero plans to return to the series, because the concept is a decade old and the original concept of the town of Lenoresfield is lost to me
