🎃MEGA HALLOWEEN SPECIAL! 🎃
Welcome my ghouls and ghasts, and today I bring to your epic ears, not scary stories to tell in the dark, not horror tales that bring chills, but an episode ALL about Fairies, Elves, Dwarves, Trolls, Kobolds and Nisses. Yes, as usual something special for you special people.
Now this episode is a little bit different than most. I’ve spent more time on research than usual and have located a book written in 1892 that talks strictly about ALL things Fae, and I’m loving it. It’s written in older fashion and required some translating, which is why it’s taken so long to do this piece of work – but totally worth it.

The first half of this episode is more about research and the second half is all about stories – and mates….they’re strange hahahah. I’ve also not added music to this episode and I’d love your opinion, on whether it did or didn’t bother you – for these research pieces I find that it might be easier to focus on the content without any music rolling in the back. Keen to hear your thoughts. Now, turn off the lights, turn up the sound, and let’s dive into Fairy Mythology, from an 1892 perspective.
