Stigmata Martyr deals with themes of the corporeal and the spiritual as Cassius, a trans, tradgoth funeral director (with crippling emotional fatigue) is tasked with embalming the body of an offending pastor, Father Timaeus. With his mortuary skills comes his talent of communicating with any spirit he works on, so when Timaeus’ spirit lingers far longer than usual, Cassius has to find a way to get rid of him.
