Folklore Rules

The most fun you can have with an introductory folklore text book (without, you know, destroying it in some extravagant way.

If there are creepy tunnels, there are satanists in them. You can count on it. #FolkloreThursday #creepy #legends #bountifulutah

I love the random stuff we have in the Fife Folklore Archives! My lucky students get to dig through our legends today! #FolkloreThursday

Is there an approachable textbook on folklore one might give to a teenager?

I ❤ @OrderGoodDeath @sarah_calavera @TheGoodDeath
etc. and I've got a lot to say about bathroom ghosts, so strap in everyone. (AKA a thread)

I'm not here to be debunking anything, because I'm a folklorist. I'm more interested in belief. -@tompowercbc (in conversation with Dan Ackroyd, no less). And here I thought I couldn't adore @cbcradioq any more?? #FolkloreThursday #FolkloreRules

Elder Branson, sometimes our curiosity brings us far too close to another faith’s tragedy. Your mission is to spread the word. Your testimony will now reflect your experience.

Be wary of excursions into the Wasatch range as sightings of the Gadianton robbers have become more prevalent.

Even in the most dry and scripted of corporate environments, folk culture exists--always has, always will. And studying it will help us gain a more balanced understanding of life, the universe, and everything. (Folklore Rules, pg 14)

And it came to pass that winter storm Harper’s wrath touched the lives of Kyler and Beckee Jensten in an abrupt way this morning. We are glad to get your 2011 Altima to church on time this afternoon.

@sawhite1987 @lynneSmcneill @FolkloreRules @LibbyTucker686 @woden7 Things I like about Folklore Rules - it's short, really accessible for students, funny, and provides an excellent grounding in Folklore that complements whatever I do in class. I don't like the hardcover price, and I encourage students to consider the ebook.

[Linda J. Lee @lindajeanlee]

Oh, hey! @lynneSmcneill I'm using @FolkloreRules in American Folklore, along with @neilhimself's American Gods. And field trips to @easternstate and @pennmuseum. Also some @mariamtatar, @JeffreyATolbert, and #FolkloreThursday. #firstdayofschool @PennLPS

[Lynne S McNeill, PhD @lynneSmcneill]
