Halloween begins! A new episode of my podcast, https://t.co/WY8e0f0fuU, exploring: vampires as disease-bringers, the New England Vampire panic, the shroud-eaters, grisly vampire destructions, & the dark romance of 19th-century tuberculosis. Via Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, or link.

@RoseLikes Only seeing this now. Would you be a maker or a buyer of suits and masks? Always the first question. I normally use @boneandsickle here on Twitter, so better to reply to me there, btw.

@DoctorAtlantis @nuekerk @folklorepod Not an expert on Slavic lore or Slavs in NY unfortunately. I do know that there's a thriving neopagan movement in that regard though.

New episode of my show, Bone & Sickle. The medieval myth of the Wild Man as he appears in legends, as an influence on medieval images of certain peculiar saints, and in a macabre historical incident inspiring an Edgar Allen Poe story. https://t.co/g1eM9zeG03
