Unearthly Upstate looks at the tales and the legends of places and people of Upstate New York. We will tell you the folklore, but then explain the history. Sometimes the history is interesting, sometimes it’s non-existent, and sometimes it's more disturbing than the tales told.

Sea08Epi01 Three Lake Creatures
We talk about three creatures that came from lakes: The Gorton Turtle, the Silver Lake Serpent, and "Georgie" the Lake George Monster. Nothing really scary, but some good tall tales.

David L. Brainard and Frederick F. Kislingbury both signed up to explore the Artic Circle on the ill fated Lady Franklin Bay Expedition. The outcome for each of them was very different. *warning* talk of cannibalism.

Skip this episode if you want. We had issues getting a regular episode together. So instead we talk about some of the hikes we took in New York and some of the interesting finds along those trails.

Nice to hear y’all live in the same town!
💯⭐️
First off good stories. Audio needs help but I think slight tweak here there with audio and format this podcast will be huge but check it out. I wanna help this show with audio and research
Audio issues.
I love the content of this podcast and think it has so much awesome potential. My issue is that the recording audio is so terrible, even having my sound maxed and my car sound maxed, it is still very quiet. I hope if it continues, the recording quality is changed. I do hope it continues though. I love the content and learning about upstate NY.
