New Year's Traditions You've Never Heard Of
30/12/2025 | 1h 53min
New Year’s has been celebrated for thousands of years…but not always the way you think. In our Season 7 finale, Amanda, Dayelle and Deena dive into the surprising, magical, creepy and sometimes downright bizarre history of ringing in a new year. We’re uncovering the origins of New Year’s itself, the song that became THE anthem of midnight (and why it still matters), why one country celebrates with a bucket of KFC, the tradition of jumping off chairs to “leap” into the new year, demon-like creatures meant to scare off bad luck and dozens of global customs meant to bring fortune, love, protection and fresh beginnings. From the heartwarming to the spooky, from ancient rituals to modern quirks, this episode is the perfect send-off to the year and a wild ride around the world’s midnight folklore.

Before Salem…there was Connecticut.Long before the infamous witch trials of Massachusetts, another colony was already drowning in fear, superstition and accusations of witchcraft. This season, Folktown heads to the shadowed corners of Connecticut, where whispers of curses, poppets, and spectral evidence ignited America’s first witch panic. In our season premiere, Amanda, Dayelle and Deena uncover the chilling stories of the women and men condemned as witches decades before Salem. Who were they? What sparked the hysteria? And why has this part of history been largely forgotten? Season 7 resurrects the spirits of Connecticut’s dark past, where every accusation came with a price and not every ghost was laid to rest.
