Description

This week Jay tells us about a Mayan devil-bat, Camazotz, creature that is guaranteed to scare Freya as she has a lifelong phobia of bats. Freya and Jay eat some bat bones and bat pâté to keep with the bat theme.  Freya picks a Romanian ghost, called Samca - who’s name means ‘Devil’s wing’.  Freya and Jay discuss the wisdom of folklore in modern medicine and consider a trip to Romania where some people still practice superstitious rituals.

Trigger warning: in this episode we discuss ghosts and potentially violent or spooky content.
