Short Suck #20 - Are Tulpas Real? The Spooky Story of Olivia Mabel

Short Suck #20 - Are Tulpas Real? The Spooky Story of Olivia Mabel

Today I’ll be sharing the strange and spooky story of Olivia Mabel. It's a story presented as a true story, centered around the unsettling concept of a “tulpa.” A thought form and sentient being willed into existence by, essentially, the power of one's imagination. Is that possible? And if not, aren't characters akin to tulpas created all the time by the power of vivid, immersive, fictional worldbuilding?

Let's get a little bit wackadoodle today as the veil supposedly gets the thinnest between the world of the living and the world of the dead as we approach Halloween. Hail Lucifina!
