The Violent Deaths of Bog Bodies

from Morbid · host Ash Kelley & Alaina Urquhart

Alaina brings us something a little different this week, BOG BODIES! All across the world in different bogs, bodies have been found almost perfectly preserved. All because of a simple little landscaping tool: Peat Moss. And your peat moss might just be haunted. Alaina tells us of 9 different Bog Bodies that have been discovered throughout the years, one of which landed a murderer in prison for the rest of his life. And if you love this episode, don’t worry there are plenty more Bog Bodies to be covered in the future.Bog Bodies Uncovered: Solving Europe's Ancient Mystery by Miranda Aldhouse-Green (Link:https://www.amazon.com/Bog-Bodies-Uncovered-Solving-Europes-ebook/dp/B012BH9DGQ/ref=sr_1_2?crid=28ZDF5XXTOXEE&keywords=bog+bodies&qid=1668630485&sprefix=%2Caps%2C51&sr=8-2)) Cowritten by Alaina Urquhart, Ash Kelley & Dave White (Since 10/2022)Produced & Edited by Mikie Sirois (Since 2023)Research by Dave White (Since 10/2022), Alaina Urquhart & Ash KelleyListener Correspondence & Collaboration by Debra LallyListener Tale Video Edited by Aidan McElman (Since 6/2025) Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
