Father Folklore

Iona Wayland hosts Creepycore and Folklore, a podcast that lives in the shadowy spaces between ancient fireside stories and modern-day unease. This isn't just a recitation of old tales; it's an immersive audio experience for those drawn to the eerie and the uncanny. Each episode carefully unwraps a specific piece of folklore, a chilling creature from global myth, or a firsthand account of a strange encounter, examining its roots and its lingering resonance in our contemporary world. You'll hear the crackle of old parchment and the whisper in the dark woods as these narratives are brought to life. The show digs into the cultural soil from which these stories grew, asking why certain fears persist and how they shape our understanding of the unknown. It’s a deep, thoughtful, and often spine-tingling exploration for anyone who finds comfort in the disquiet, blending scholarly curiosity with a genuine love for a good, haunting tale. Tune in to this podcast for a regular dose of the macabre and the mysterious, where every myth has a history and every shadow might have a story.
