Hey there, folks.

Aaron here.

Welcome back to another edition of Deeper Lore.

This is a bonus episode that's designed to serve as a topical guide to this week's most recent episode of Lore.

With well over 335 episodes, counting both lore and lore legends that have been produced over the last decade, I know how frustrating it can be to hear an episode and have it spark a memory of a topic that you learned about a few years ago.

It happens to us all the time here at Lore HQ.

We have spreadsheet upon spreadsheet to try to keep track of it all, but sometimes it's just really difficult.

So that's where deeper lore comes in.

The goal here is to quickly point you in the direction of some older related episodes so that you can keep this week's magic alive a little longer.

You know, to go deeper into the lore.

This week for episode 281, The Silver Scream, we explore some of the more frightening stories from Hollywood.

Not the movies and TV shows themselves, mind you, but the real tales behind real people.

But it's not the first time that we have discussed the folklore of the silver screen or the world of entertainment.

So here are three older episodes that will pair up nicely with this week's new one.

First up, episode 190, All That Glitters.

This one was actually our first visit to Hollywood many years ago.

Think of it as part one to this week's part two.

If you love old Hollywood, this one is going to hit the spot.

Next, download episode 198, Curtain Call.

Speaking of entertainment, this old episode is centered around a famous actor, their murder, and the folklore that grew out of the entire episode.

If you love theater, this one is definitely for you.

And finally, there's episode 246, The Greatest Show.

This one, admittedly, is a pivot.

Yes, it's all about the entertainment world, but for this particular episode, we limited that to the world of the circus.

And yes, even in a place as bright and colorful as that, there are plenty of shadows to explore.

And there you go, folks.

Follow up this week's brand new episode with a trip into the past.

Episodes 190, 198, and 246 are waiting for you in this podcast feed.
