Everything in the world has a Manitou, a Native-American spirit, and Harry and the good doctors call upon a modern-day Shaman named John Singing Rock for help, definitely less powerful than Misquamacus.
This infernal medicine man is feared by all as the body count rises. Able to call up the most powerful demons in the world who can’t be exercised by Christianity because they were before Christ, the shaman’s chief demon is a squid spirit and, yes, I believe it’s Cthulhu. Reborn from a neck, the Native American is squat, has stunted limbs, but is none the less powerful. Erskine helps the doctors discover that an ancient Native-American medicine man named Misquamacus, the most powerful Shaman ever, is back to seek revenge against the white man for stealing his country, as well as other atrocities. In 1976’s The Manitou, based in San Francisco, something is growing on the back of an attractive woman named Karen Tandy’s neck-perceived as a tumor-which baffles her doctors.ĭesperate for help, the good docs bring in a charlatan psychic named Harry Erskine-an unlikely hero who’s the perfect protagonist-as a paranormal investigator.
He went on to write many great novels, a total of 101 in all! The Manitou is definitely Graham Masterton’s bread-and-butter, the series being the best books he’s ever written.
