The Witch's Cut is a forthcoming book by Jacob Isreal.
When Jacob falls in his apartment, he thinks he's having the worst day of his life. He's wrong.
What follows is a surreal nightmare—a ketamine-induced hallucination where a real hospital becomes a television soundstage and the doctors and nurses transform into a coven of nineteen witches wearing the faces of celebrities. Jacob isn't a patient anymore. He's a contestant on a brutal competition show where trauma is mined for ratings and the season finale always ends with a sacrifice.
But Jacob refuses to perform.
Stripped of his autonomy and his voice, he must fight not only the witches but the medical system that violated his consent—and the own mind that created the show. Armed only with his pain—the one thing the witches can't control—he begins to unravel the truth behind the TV show. What he discovers is more disturbing than any reality show: the witches aren't external forces. They're the stories he told himself to survive. The show isn't real. But the pain is. And the only way out is through.
The Witch's Cut is a visceral, darkly funny, and deeply human story about the stories we tell ourselves to survive—and the courage it takes to rewrite them.
Some shows are cancelled. Some stories end. And sometimes, the only way to survive is to become the author of your own nightmare.
