Are you ready for Chapter 3 of our Cryptid Compendium series?! We begin by catching our dear listeners up on what’s been happening for us this past month or so. Luna’s body can now make its own stones! Amanda has found deeper meaning within the lyrics of songs she loved as a teen. For Ch.3 of the Cryptid Compendium we delve into the mysteries of the Werewolf examining the overlap between myth and cryptid lore. This episode crosses the full spectrum, from the jovial rituals of Lupercalia to the darker depths of a condition known as Lycanthropy. Join us in a good howl under the Full Moon!
