Discovery Plus, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

One of those ways is Ghost Town Terror, a series about a family who buy an abandoned pioneer ranch in Montana. They find a mummified cat in the crawl space under one of the buildings and, from that moment onwards, in addition to the human apparitions and voices that they were already experiencing, they are plagued by the sounds of feline hissing. So they are forced to call in the paranormal investigators.

The investigators’ research revealed the following information, which I quote word for word:

“In Irish folklore there’s something called a Cat Sidhe which is believed to be a type of demon who takes the form of a black cat. And it’s thought to steal souls.”

Well, this doesn’t sound too promising. Let’s hope the cat doesn’t also have fangs, because OH MY GOODNESS, WOULDN’T YOU KNOW IT:

A black, fanged, demonic cat. Imagine that.

“Shocked but not surprised” probably ought to be the inscription on my tombstone.

    There are several ghost legends. that involve mummified cats found in walls. There’s a lighthouse on the Great Lakes. And there is a Demon Cat in the US Capitol. The upcoming session of Congress would be a good time for it to make a reappearance.

          And this is why I can never have more than one cat. There is a pack mentality.

      As an American, I’m ashamed that I didn’t know about the DC demon cat! Thank you for sharing!

    Long ago, I heard about witches who were able to transform back and forth between human form and cat form. Did you also learn it when watching Discovery Plus?

      No, I learned it from watching Catorze.

    It’s also known as a cat fairy. But usually it had a white patch on its chest and was about as big as a dog… Of course, those details might have been spread by small fully black and fanged cat sidhe. 😂

        Maybe he’s the offspring of a domestic cat and a Cat Sith. 🤔 That would explain a lot ! Although, maybe not his sudden interest in human food…
