Welcome Back to Nothing Scarier Podcast!
This week we get historical and deep dive into some 1800s tea. First, your host chat about the origin and many versions of Nosferatu. Then Cayla brings you some still piping hot tea from 1816. Literary frat boys, volcanic eruptions, top level petty moves and a rainy June evening combine to create one of the original literary and film horror icons - the Vampire.
