from Twin Terrors Macabre Manor of Mead Metal and Mayhem · host twinterrorsheavymetal
Welcome to another seasonal themed episode! We figured with all the Halloween episodes, we could at least do one or two at Christmas. You may notice a distinct theme, though, as we're still sticking with the spooky stuff. Enjoy our discussion of the history of telling ghost stories at Christmas, some of the horrific beings that roam the country side in the dark of winter, and a bit on traditions. Mentioned in the episode are these two articles, for your perusing enjoyment: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/plea-resurrect-christmas-tradition-telling-ghost-stories-180967553/?fbclid=IwAR2PlEeM_VDl7gwlVPRTSzeQro2oSy621phJc5oGTIkG42_0a7LUP1AFROI https://owlcation.com/humanities/The-Crossroads-a-liminal-setting-for-occult-and-supernatural-activities Happy Yule and see you next week with another Christmas theme as we visit Wales! Wassail!
