👹Something is lurking in the forest temple👹
While the country outside is rocked by the changes in the world, a village grapples with the idea that a monster of a land that's nearly gone still lurks in their midst.
😈 The Creature: Boraro
Watch out or he'll turn you into a human Capri-Sun

422: Scottish folklore: Witchful Thinking
🧙♂️So you've decided to steal from a witch or wizard🧙♀️
Are you sure about that? If you are, you might want to think about what you're going to do more than the characters in today's stories from Scotland and Norway. Especially if, like them, you end up stealing way more than you bargained for.
😈 The Creature: ewaipanoma
The headless friends of all the children in South America. No you can't see them. Why would you even ask. Oh, you didn't? Well, you still can't see them.

421: Viking Legends: Famous
🔥All the Viking warriors' hearts burn with love for Nítíða🔥
And also the rest of them is on fire as well because that's what happens when you try to kidnap a maiden-king.
😈 The Creatures: Henkie
The henkie is dancing with itself. When it's not watching you sleep, that is.

420: Korean Grim Reaper: Saja Boys
⚰️It's Halloween⚰️
What do you do when death comes for you? Well, the characters in today's stories have a lot of ideas, and they're surprisingly successful. The problem? Death works on a much, much longer timeline.
😈 The Creatures: Bulgasari
Why you don't feed your rice monster metal needles. Unlike most pets, it will be fine. You'll be in trouble, though.

419: Slavic folklore: Bad Heir Day
Ivan fights wizards and monsters and Baba Yaga with a music streaming subscription
What do you get when your daughters have been kidnapped by a sleezy cloud and your son not only spends all of his days jamming with his self-playing harp, but DOESN'T want to tear the heads off his friends? You get Tsar Wisehead, who apparently just figured out that parenting is hard.
😈 **The Creature: Garm
Garm is serious about his job, and that's unfortunate because that job involves blood splatters and the end of the world.

Jason Weiser and Carissa Weiser tell stories from myths, legends, and folklore that have shaped cultures throughout history. Some, like the stories of Aladdin, King Arthur, and Hercules are stories you think you know, but with surprising origins. Others are stories you might not have heard, but really should. All the stories are sourced from world folklore, but retold for modern ears. These are stories of wizards, knights, Vikings, dragons, princesses, and kings from the time when the world beyond the map was a dangerous and wonderful place.
