In New Orleans there is a person whose name will forever live in infamy. She is a queen that in my opinion reigns higher than all other royalty.

Take a listen and enjoy also if you know anything I missed please feel free to let me know.

How does covering a murder mystery sound for this week's episode? Well I hope you said yes because we are coving an Ax Murder House from Villisca, Iowa. It all went down in 1912 when a family returned from a church event on the night of June 9th. It seemed like the next day started off just like any other until the neighbors noticed the Moore family home was oddly quiet. To hear what happens next, take a listen and let me know. Enjoy!

In this week's episode we are traveling to Japan! Ok maybe not physically, but for the content of the story we are exploring the folklore in the area. I’d like to introduce you to the Umibōzu aka the Sea Monk. Apparently for years this sea spirit has been terrorizing ships that set sail in the open waters of Japan. Now is there a way to combat them or are they even really real? Take a listen to this week's episode and find out. Enjoy!

Whose a fan of the movie Aladdin? Well did you know that the genie in the movie is actually based on a folklore from the Middle East? There is a story of beings known as Djinn. They can shapeshift, go between dimensions and they can lightly possess people. But with all that known I’d like to tell you about a Djinn that might be the most famous. Her name is Umm Al Duwais and let me just say she is someone you wouldn’t want to run into. Let me know what you think when you hear the story. Enjoy!
