Have you ever wondered what gave birth to the stories we tell around the campfire? What happened in our history that caused spooky tales of creatures such as werewolves and ladies in white to be passed down from generation to generation?

Episode 1 | Vampires 21.11.2019 19:27

If you would like to skip where I talk about myself and get right into the lore of Vampires, go to 6:45.  *Please note that I do explore light themes of sexuality and death throughout this episode which may not be suitable for children younger than 13.
