Slip into the darkness this #folklorethursday as we visit the Underworld in Episode 8 - To Hell and Back . We discuss the history of hell w/ medieval scholar Alan Bernstein, then examine video games and psychology w/ Aimee Daramus https://t.co/o6H0sX9JXc

@hasken4trouble Congratulations!!! Well done you! I saw you got a very sweet thank you in the latest issue of @afsfolklorists JAF, too. You've earned the hell outta some kudos!
@AFSNewFolklore This was a sign a friend of mine posted from #SDCC this year. I'm not sure who the presenters were, but there's clearly room for us there. I think @annamarie_ob has presented at Comicon before, too.
Alright y'all vacation month is over and it's back to the grind. Here's a clip from our recent interview with @lynneSmcneill where she speaks about teaching folklore, her book @FolkloreRules, and keeping folklore fun https://t.co/Pnwe8IUHLH

Bonus: We didn't have this one scheduled so soon but in honor of his successful diss defense, here's our interview with Dr. @chasingfoxfire. We talk abt influences, his Krampus work, and of course the future of the field.

With the confluence of the Kilauea eruption and #folklorethursday today seems a good time to revisit our show from last year on geologists using folklore to help date seismic events https://t.co/nMe0ImKY4x
It is very unlucky to kill or harm a robin, to steal or destroy its eggs, or damage its nest. If a robin enters your house (except in Nov), or taps on your window, it is a portent of death. Arriving on a Christmas card, it used to mean the sender wished you ill. #FolkloreThursday
