    About this Episode

    Greetings, fellow seekers of the unknown! Welcome to a very special episode of Cult of Lore as we celebrate the spookiest season of them all - Howl-o-ween! And what better way to mark the occasion than by diving deep into the folklore and mythology surrounding one of the most iconic creatures of all time - werewolves.

    Join us as we explore the origins of this fearsome beast, reaching back into the distant past to uncover the earliest examples of man's fascination with merging the worlds of beast and human. From ancient myths and legends to modern-day horror stories, we'll leave no stone unturned in our quest to uncover the truth about these mysterious and terrifying creatures.


    Why do werewolves continue to captivate our imaginations to this day? What drives our obsession with these fierce and formidable beasts? And what can we learn about ourselves by exploring their stories?

    So, grab your silver bullets and prepare to howl at the moon as we embark on an unforgettable journey through the realm of the werewolf. It's a journey you won't want to miss!

    Cannibal Monsters

    Cannibal Monsters

    Creatures with a taste for human flesh have lurked at the shadowy edge of civilization for centuries.

    To celebrate  this Thanksgiving season, we have decided to dine with a few of these creatures so we could learn more about what drives their insatiable cravings.

    Heorot, the mighty Mead Hall of King Hrothgar, was visited night after night by Grendel, who devoured the men of the hall nightly until the mighty hero Beowulf paid a visit.

    The Algonquin peoples told tales of the dreaded Wendigo, who hunted and cannibalized the humans in the fridged,  wintery forests of North America. 

    In Slavic folklore we find a strange hut that stands on chicken legs. Within lives Baba Yaga, a hideous ogress (or ogresses) who is ready for a new victim to cook into a meal.

    Lovecraft World History

    Greetings fellow students of lore! Today, as part of our month-long celebration of Cultober,  we will be delving into the abhorrent world of H. P. Lovecraft! 

    Will you look to the cold, distant stars for the secrets of the cosmic Outer Gods and the Great Old Ones, and dive deep into our own oceans to discover the watery R'lyeh where dead Cthulhu waits dreaming? 
    Will you risk madness along with us to glean but a fragment of the vast knowledge of Yog-sothoth?

    We will go to dark, hidden lands to discover many dreadful horrors such as the Elder Things, the Deep Ones, the Great Race of Yith, and so much more.
