Episode 71: Poverty, Horror, and the Mountains

from The BabaYaga Project

We've all seen the cabin in the woods horror movies. But where do they come from? Why do these stereotypes and ideas exist around these landscapes?

This week, we talk about mountains in the Americas, specifically the Appalachian region and its history, folklore, and culture. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
