From Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster to Dracula and the Wolfman, every culture has its monsters.
But these stories weren’t created just to scare us.
In this episode, we explore why humans invent monsters — and what those legends reveal about fear, power, control, and the darker edges of human nature. Drawing from folklore, Hollywood, and real historical figures, we ask a simple but unsettling question:
Are monsters fiction… or mirrors?
This isn’t about the supernatural.
It’s about what we choose to ignore — and what happens when we do.
