Fresh from vacation Jen takes us through a couple of incredible Maine legends. First, a visit to the historical society in Bucksport, ME prompted a visit to the cemetery to visit the well known grave of Col Jonathan Bucksport that was defaced following a curse from a witch he had condemned to death. Also in the Bucksport region is the mystery of the Red Paint People of Maine who seemingly disappeared 3800 years ago, leaving mysterious graves full of crushed hematite. Who were they, and where did they go?
Yasmine walks us through the fascinating world of vampire folklore. Listen as she discusses the enduring belief across all cultures that the dead can and do sometimes come back to wreak havoc on the living. Also discover the methods deployed to insure those suspected of being undead did not exit their eternal slumber.
We love to hear from our listeners! Tell us what myths/lore/legends/paranormal/folktales/fables/fairy tales you would like to hear covered on the show. Want to be a guest? Let us know by connecting with us:
