Can you handle the eerie allure of urban legends? Join Hannah and me as we kick off with a spine-tingling introduction to the mysterious world of urban legends. We define and debate everything from ghost stories and macabre superstitions to extraterrestrial encounters and modern-day creepypasta. Listen as we dissect the origins of famous legends like Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster and recount the tale of the Vanishing Hitchhiker, which captured imaginations in the 1980s. We'll also explore how these captivating stories are rooted in local history and culture and how they've been immortalized in media, particularly in shows like Supernatural.
Ever wondered how urban legends seep into our favorite films and TV shows? This episode spotlights the fascinating intersection of these myths with popular culture. From the eerie episodes of Supernatural to the chilling plots of "I Know What You Did Last Summer" and "It Follows," we discuss how supernatural threats manifest in uniquely terrifying ways. Discover the haunting tales behind "Candyman," "Krampus," and even the humorous legend of mutant alligators lurking in New York sewers. Plus, brace yourself for a wild ride through the dangerous wildlife of Australia, where everything seems to be out to get you.
Our exploration wouldn’t be complete without delving into the local legends of Norfolk. We spotlight the chilling stories of the Black Shuck and the Grey Lady of Tombland, debating their plausibility and historical roots. There's also the mysterious disappearance of Joseph and the eerie lantern lights seen on the broads at night. We ponder whether these tales are based on real events or are just figments of our imagination. Join us for a captivating journey through some of the most intriguing and haunting urban legends!
