Deeper Lore: 247 (159, 120, & 2)

Hey folks, Erin here.

Deeper lore is a bonus series designed to be a topical guide.

So if you enjoyed the most recent episode of the main lore show, episode 247 Subterranean, then this bonus is designed to point you toward other episodes that have covered similar topics.

Now, this week's new lore episode is all about one particular underground location with its own dark past, but it's not the first time we've explored folklore that thrives in darkness.

So here are three older episodes that might be fun to revisit.

First, go download episode 159, Close By.

In this classic episode, we explored the secrets that lurk beneath the streets of Edinburgh and Scotland.

It's full of so many shadows.

It's hard to pick a favorite, really.

Just go listen for yourself and enjoy the cool damp air.

Next, download episode 120, Whistle While You Work.

This one takes us below the surface to learn about the twisted folklore of miners.

No, not kids, the miners who dug deep into the earth looking for coal and precious metals.

In all my years of making this show, I don't think I've encountered a more superstitious occupation than mining, and it makes for some great stories.

And finally, you can't go wrong with episode 2, The Bloody Pit.

This classic has it all.

Dark tunnels carved out of a mountain at great cost, tragic accidents deep within, and the ghosts that keep drifting out to the surface.

It's so dang spooky, and if you haven't heard it in a while, it's worth worth a revisit.

So there you go.

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

Episodes 159, 120, and 2 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, stay spooky.
