Nice

I like how it gives you a history about the monster.👻👻👻

Lubby502 ,

Meh…mispronouncing words constantly

I’m listening to the Stacy Arras disappearance in Yosemite episode and the narrator says, “Cases with SIMULAR circumstances” it’s SIMILAR not SIMULAR. She has a very heavy Eastern Kentucky mountains accent where she pronounces words such as LIKE and BIKE with a long A sound. So Bike sounds like BAAACK and Like sounds like LAAACK. I’m not crazy about that accent and the mispronunciation of words. Mispronouncing words is just a lack of education, not an accent problem. It’s like people that call a chimney, a CHIMLEY. Very annoying. Other than that, this podcast literally puts me to sleep. Her low whispery voice is just boring.

I’m completely hooked to this podcast!

I have always been fascinated by myths and folklore. This podcast has not only introduced me to creatures I’ve never heard of before but has also shone light on the histories behind ones I thought I knew quite a bit about. The addition of the stories adds to the fun. Hearing a tale about each monster helps bring each of them to life.
I hope we can begin to explore more exotic monsters of myths from less know lore from around the world! ❤️❤️❤️
