DARKNESS

from Gimme the Creeps · host Abigail & Daniela

The women begin the discussion lightheartedly with common sense info from History Channel on how darkness was dangerous in the past or in areas where light pollution is still very low. Deities of the night from different religions and cultures are listed to the best of Abi’s pronunciation (apologies). Abi shares information on the phobias and disorders linked to the dark. We learn of Daniela’s fear of the dark. They go on to find that for some, this phobia is debilitating, constantly affecting day-to-day life any activities. *** Reality truly is stranger than fiction as the human brain is complex, if you or someone you know has anxiety or any condition or symptoms mentioned, please see a medical professional** 30:49-31-28 AHS Cult with SPOILERS mentioned    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbeting https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_night_deities https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erebus#:~:text=In%20Greek%20mythology%2C%20Erebus%20 https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/22785-nyctophobia-fear-of-the-dark https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peduncular_hallucinosis#:~:text=Peduncular%20hallucinosis%20(PH)%20is%20a,and%20last%20for%20several%20minutes.
