Episode 3: Peter Pan

The Wonderful World of Darklords

Welcome to Wonderful World of Darklords! In this particularly liberal-arts-major episode (which, contrary to our expectations in Episode Zero, is only one episode), we discuss Peter Pan, and occasionally even touch on the Disney movie. A land of perpetual childhood is a bit like Narnia's Dark Island where dreams come true: it sounds lovely until you think about it for five minutes, and then the horror potential is everywhere. Subjects discussed include:

--Which of Neverland's two excellent darklord candidates we chose and why;

--Why Neverland is aesthetically the least scary, but thematically the scariest, domain we've covered so far;

--The incredible storytelling and horror potential of what is essentially a meta domain about stories (in which there's one main character, and it's not you);

--How to run the natives without hating yourself in the morning, and enough feminist and Freudian analysis of Peter Pan to make our college English professors very happy with us,

--and more!
