Folklore Friday

Megan Erickson

Welcome to Folklore Friday, where I discuss the world’s Folklore, Myths, Legends, and superstitions. I explore what these stories meant to the cultures that shared them. Also the different uses of Lore in our modern entertainment and the history of it all. Join me and some friends as we discuss Lore in History, and review television and film that feature supernatural, or Folkloric elements.

  • Who doesn’t love folklore?

    Not only do I love the subject matter, folklore, superstitions, urban myths and learning about they’re origins, the Podcast is very well done. Obviously hours upon hours of research that, hey, we don’t have to do :) Megan does it for us in a funny, dramatic and charming way that is so fun and sometimes spooky to listen to. more
