Hey folks, Erin here.

Welcome to Deeper Lore, a short bonus episode designed to be a topical guide.

So with Deeper Lore, the goal is simple.

With so many episodes in the lore catalog, it's hard to track down specific ones, even for me, truly.

And if a new episode reminded you of a past one on the same topic or sparked your interest in learning more about this week's particular topic, then this bonus episode is designed to point you in the right direction.

To that end, this week's new lore episode, 253 Compelled, is all about the history and folklore of exorcism.

And as a bit of a personal commentary here, I was really surprised by just how ancient the idea is.

Not just the concept of demons, but the ritual act of driving them out.

It changed the way that I look at this topic for sure.

But it's not the first time that we've dipped our toes into these unholy waters here on lore.

From specific stories to larger tours of the concept, we have dabbled in demonic possession and exorcism on a regular basis.

With that in mind, here are three older episodes that are related.

First up, go download and listen to episode 57, Quarantine.

This classic episode takes us to France to experience a mass event known as the Loudon Possessions.

It has drama, it has politics, it has religion, everything a good possession story needs.

So give episode 57 a re-listen today.

Next, download episode 191, Throwing Voices.

This is a fascinating story about a guy who turned himself into a traveling exorcist for hire in an England that didn't really know how to handle him.

And the mess that followed him as he did his weird job left us with a powerful story.

Come for the wild possession tales, but stay for the boy who thought a neighbor bewitched him by farting.

And finally, you can't go wrong with episode 185 Under the Skin.

This one ticks all of the usual boxes, priests and nuns, a teenage girl, and a lot of wild accusations.

And being set in South Africa rather than America gives it an it can't happen here feeling which is either hopefully optimistic or just plain wrong.

Check it out.

So there you go.

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

Episodes 57, 191, and 185 are waiting for you in this podcast feed, or you can find their direct links in the description for this episode.

And until next time, folks, stay spooky.
