When I was three my family lived in Hawaii where “Banana Spiders” (large tarantula looking things) used to get into our beds at night. They don’t just crawl, they kind of hop about (or so three year old me remembers). So, to answer your que

I can relate to being raised in the same wacky religion, and it does drive people to substance abuse, mental health issues, and inter-family rifts. From the purely human part, the Guys has lost his wife and kids and possibly his whole socia
