Terrifying & True | The Golem of Prague: Jewish Folklore's Clay Monster

The Golem of Prague is Jewish folklore's clay guardian, shaped to protect a threatened community. Terrifying & True follows Rabbi Judah Loew's legend through sacred Hebrew letters, the older golem of Chelm, and tales of a body hidden in the Old-New Synagogue attic. Discover how Yudl Rosenberg's 1909 book helped define a defender against false antisemitic accusations. We distinguish religious tradition and documented history from later fiction. What happens when a protector can obey its maker but cannot understand the consequences? We're telling that story tonight.
