Liv certainly got lucky with the topic this week, delving into just three Nigerian legends - Bush Babies, Oroma/Rebecca and of course Madame Koi Koi. There's a surprising amount of boarding schools in this one. Oh and remember kids, don't do crime.

Crows and Ravens are some of those things that span many different mythologies all around the world. Sometimes good, sometimes bad, but always with a story to tell. Oh...and we have a new little guy.

In a small village in England in the twelth century two strange children appeared by a wolf pit. This is unusual enough on it's own, but these children spoke a language never heard in Woolpit and their skin was, well... green. The mystery of the Green Children of Woolpit has enchanted and intrigued for the last 800 years, remaining tantalising close to solving.

Joanne Trimper sounds like a lovely individual. And The Pride of the Boardwalk at Trimper Rides sounds like a lovely carousel. But put the two together, and things start to smell a little...haunted.
Pull up a chair, grab some free range popcorn and let us power through a mild cold to tell you about the haunted carousel at Trimper Rides.

This episode is a little chaotic folks. Liv had done this research a while back and kind of forgot where she was going with the story, Jess' recording program crashed and Liv tried something different with the mic (spoiler alert it didn't work). If you're still with us after all of that, welcome to the crowded, dark, dense and haunted street of Mary King's Close. Stretching over several layers, and roofed in by the City Chambers above, the Close has reportedly been haunted since a devastating plague outbreak in 1645.

You will have noticed this is a well polished podcast with very few mistakes. That's because we make very few mistakes.
Actually, it's because we saved them for this episode. Same thing really. Is it mostly Liv loudly drinking tea? Maybe. In the end though, that was so cool.

The story of the Hopkinsville Goblins is the 'based on a true story' you've heard about without ever really hearing about. This 1950s encounter has all the makings of some of the best stories: UFOs, alien creatures, terrified humans in a farmhouse, and a clown car. Well...maybe not a clown car. But it's a nice image.

No, not the baked good, though that does come up... this week we're talking about the household spirit found throughout Scotland and Northern England. A mischevious, pernickety fixture of households known for helping out at night - or if you'd upset them - making a mess, brownies prove to be self-confident queens. The stories surrounding these iconic creatures are hilarious, as are some of the things Jess says (don't tell her I said that).

Once upon a time, around the 16th century, an ominous land known as 'The Isle of Demons' was found on maps. And then it disappeared. This raised questions. Which raised more questions. Where did it go? Why did it go? What was the original Zealand? And does Germany exist? Join us as we attempt to answer some of these questions, mispronounce things, and spread some gossip from the 1500s.
(In all seriousness, sincerest apologies for Jess' pronunciation of Newfoundland. But it would make sense for it to be pronounced that way, right?)

What happens when you are an ass-hole to donkeys and strong women? You get something like the Donkey Lady of San Antonio, Texas at Old Apple White Bridge. A classic bridge story with hauntings, hooves, hoofs, wolves and maybe were-donkeys. At least some of those things. And ultimately we are left with another question...how would a Donkey Lady wear pants?

It's just turned 2024, and there are many ways to celebrate the New Year. For example, in Greenland you might dress up as a mitaartoq for Mitaarfik and scare your neighbours for treats. You could also dance. That works too. Whichever you choose, we hope you enjoy our little exploration of a somewhat creepy but definitely cosy Inuit tradition. Just keep an eye out for the tiny tiny scary people.

Happy Halloweek! This week we're talking about a stone with many names and many uses.

Legend has it that the island of Poveglia is made of 50% dirt, and 50% human ashes. Whilst this might not be entirely true, the horrors and death the island has seen very much are, and their echoes remain to this day. Join us on a trip to the abandoned island. Just remember to bring your own snacks.
Oh, and Happy Friday the 13th.

In 1931 the Irvings started hearing scratches in the wall. At first they put it down to rodents or maybe a dog, but one night they heard something that sounded like a baby babbling in the attic. The creature in the walls revealed itself as Gef, the spirit of a mongoose/weasel, able to shape shift, split the atom and speak. Gef continues to captivate the imagination and remains a mystery to this day.

Elva Zona Heaster Shue was 23 years old when her cause of death was determined 'everlasting faint'. But that didn't stick. She made sure of that when she returned to visit her mother, and become known as The Greenbrier Ghost. Who became known in the "only known case in which testimony from ghost helped convict a murderer."

It is a doozy this week folks! Liv tells the story of a young girl plagued by a spirit, who captivated Georgian England. Jess is actually cooperative, which is weird. So weird in fact, that Liv can't speak - fabulous when she's trying to tell the story. We talk about respecting all entities, the protective power of blankets, and that Jess doesn't trust Lunchables for some reason. Oh, we're also NOT comfortable using legal jargon in everyday life and I did say dojo.
