The Fear Mythos Wiki

There are things in this world that we can't explain. There are things that scare us. Things that hurt us in ways we never thought possible. They fill us with terror. They fill us with a rare horror only they can induce. They get into your head. They mess with you. We can't say they're the reason, or the outcome. But we do know one thing. They're mankind's greatest Fears. Everything you were scared of, everything that ever went bump in the night. These are the things we can't control. Or rather, they control us. And they won't stop until we're dead.



The Fear Mythos is a collection of stories, similar to the Cthulhu Mythos, with a pantheon of eldritch abominations. These abominations are based on mankind's most primal fears, like the fear of the unknown.

The Fear Mythos includes blogs, audio plays, vlogs, and creepypasta. Find out more by reading our series bible.

The Constant Wanderer is the archetypal Fear of Stagnation, representing repetition, routines, and leading a meaningless existence.

However the pact never said that they had to let it leave and in order to prevent it from escaping, the last Fear it visits during each cycle (usually The Wooden Girl) would always kill it. The Archangel would then resurrect The Constant Wanderer while also removing the memories of the last cycle. Read more...
