The HORRIFYING Life of a Medieval Gravedigger During the Black Death

Get early episodes & ad-free audio on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DrowsyHistorianStep into the crumbling boots of a nameless soul the world forgot — a medieval gravedigger during the height of the Black Death. In this immersive, slow-burning narrative, you won’t find knights or kings. Just blistered hands, bloated corpses, and the slow unraveling of faith, memory, and self. With each pit you dig, the world grows quieter — until even the bells stop tolling.Told in a calm, weary tone with dark historical accuracy, this story brings you face-to-face with the forgotten laborers of plague time — not the ones remembered in stained glass, but the ones buried beneath it. If you’re still awake by the end… maybe you’ve got stronger lungs than most.🛏️ Drowsy Historian’s Favorite Sleep ToolsLooking to upgrade your nighttime routine?
