Welcome to Episode 179: The Menacing Not Deer of American Forests Feat. Scared All The Time. Have you ever heard of the Not Deer? The term “Not-Deer” is a modern phrase coined to describe a subset of a supernatural phenomena that has likely permeated North American folklore long before it was recorded in writing. As its name suggests, “Not Deer” refers specifically to wild deer found in forests which are not actually animals at all, but humanlike bad spirits disguising themselves as deer for purposes which are yet to be uncovered. What exactly are they? Some say they are just regular deer with birth defects, while others say they are ghosts, cryptids, or…something worse. Join us on this week’s episode - along with special guests Scared All The Time - as we unravel the lore behind Not Deer and even interview exclusive Not Deer witnesses!
