The Telenizer

"The Telenizer" by Don Thompson is a science fiction story set in the 1950s where mind control becomes a terrifying reality. A journalist, Earl Langston, finds himself the target of "telenosis," a technique that implants horrifying thoughts directly into his mind, like visions of blood flowing from his faucet. Suspecting a personal vendetta, Langston investigates Isaac Grogan, a man from his past, as he uses his quick thinking using a makeshift defense to protect his mind. Langston's search leads him to a bizarre health cult, called Suns-Rays Incorporated, which provides both humor and suspense. The story ramps up as Langston and his bodyguard, Maxwell, uncover a deeper plot with the cult and an imminent plan to weaponize telenosis, leading to a desperate attempt to stop Grogan's dangerous scheme before it's too late.
