Episode 164 – Creepy Swoosh

It’s once again that special time of year when the boys get their traveling shoes on (??) and start telling stories around the world! Everything is probably going to go exactly as planned!

The first stop on this month-long journey is Eastern Europe and More Specifically Hungary. Jake kicks it off with an all-purpose supernatural being called a lidérc, which is equally likely to do you favors while eating your butter and then killing you, or else sexing you so good every single night (and then killing you). It’s a chicken-tastic fun time! Wyatt then humors both hosts’ pet interests with a pale humanoid that is also apelike. Sometimes called the Woodcutter of Mátranovák, sometimes called the Treeskinner, this eerie beastie has one thing all cryptids strive for: BLURRY. PHOTOGRAPHIC. EVIDENCE.

Grab an entirely unspecified plane ticket and join in for the beginning of this year’s August Around the World!
