Rowan & Pine: A Feminist Folklore & Mythology Podcast

HAPPY SPOOKY SEASON, WITCHES! Niamh got to try out some voice acting for this very special horror anthology with our pals at Creators Collective as one of the Five Doomed Hosts trapped in an abandoned radio station. Our story contribution will show up in Part 2, but you need to get the lore before that. Be sure to check out the pods in the LinkTree below and don't say we never do anything nice for ya!
👻👻👻👻👻

Welcome,

Tonight we come to you from an abandoned radio station for a very special Halloween two-part series to broadcast some of the scariest stories, urban legends and real events live on air.
Five friends have broken in with the plan to create something spectacularly and unforgettably spooky but their night is about to take a twisted turn when something sinister that was lurking within the confines of the building begins to take the forms of the stories they tell…

They are only given one rule - Don’t stop the broadcast if you want to get out alive.
Will they finish their show?

Will they figure out what’s causing all of this?

Will they make it through the terrifying stories recorded by their friends in the Collective unscathed? There’s only one way to find out and that is to tune in with them…

Spooktober continues, Fiends! We are back for the second part of our Bloody Mary episode.
Em of the Back Away Slowly Podcast has done an insane deep dive into urban legends and Mary herself, so it was only fitting that we summon her for this one. This second part gets into international variations of Mary, what the legend tells us, and our favourite portrayals in media.
Don't forget to watch out for our Mirror Folklore Pine Cones later in the month!

On 7 June 1692, a massive earthquake followed by a devastating tsunami killed two thousand people and submerged the city of Port Royal in Jamaica.
