Originally launched 2/17/16, "The Medici Boots" is adapted from a story of the same name by Pearl Norton Swet, which appeared in an issue of the long-running Weird Tales pulp-fiction magazine. Adapted, directed and produced by Pete Lutz. Set in the year 1935, it's the story of John Delameter, his wife Suzanne, and his brother Eric -- it's also the story of a pair of beautifully styled boots, made in the 15th century and cursed in the same era. Weird things start happening to the Delameters once they inherit these boots from their historian uncle...
