    430: Finnish folklore: Worn Out

    11/03/2026 | 56 mins.
    ✏️Osmo is a pretty solid sketch artist✏️
    He’s not drawing a criminal, though. He’s drawing his sister, whose only crime is stealing the prince’s heart. And also maybe trying to escape the prison of the sea king, but that comes later.
    😈 The Creature: The Jurua

    Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, there’s the jurua who is taking their family out to a nice dinner…of your flesh. Hope you’re wearing the right creeper.

    429: Slavic folklore: The Devilkin Made Me Do It

    25/02/2026 | 50 mins.
    👞Goria the shoemaker has a bad boss👞

    Is his boss the devil? Literally...well, no. Is the devil that Goria meets in a bar actually better than his boss? 100% yes.
    😈 The Creature: Jack-in-Irons

    A creature who made it a bad thing to walk around threatening people with a spiky club and wearing human heads. Thanks, Jack.

    428: Monkey King: The Pride

    11/02/2026 | 1h 7 mins.
    🐺Inside each of us there are two wolves. They are named 'Shifty' and 'Freaky'.🐺

    Which one wins? Well it doesn't matter because they're both demons so maybe try to starve both of them out. Or spit in their faces and steal their name tags, like Sun Wukong does. No wrong answers because, in the world of the Journey to the West, anything goes.
    But for real, we catch back up with Monkey, Sandy, Pigsy, and the Tang Monk on their travels as they enter year 14 and the final leg of their journey. But are they ready for what awaits them?
    😈 The Creature: Intulo

    An evil walking and talking lizard who just wants to watch the world die. But only if he has to die, eventually. He does? Ok, then bye, world.

    427: Norse Legends: Wither or Not

    28/01/2026 | 59 mins.
    🧙‍♀️So, you think your stepmom might be a sorceress🧙‍♀️

    Common problem. Well, common for fairy tales, at least. But, have you thought that she might not like you putting her in a box and deciding what she is before you even get to know her? It's something you might want to think about. Definitely because you shouldn't be prejudiced. Also because if she's really a sorceress do you really want to make her mad?
    😈 The Creature: Ipupiara

    A hairy, smelly merman who's just trying to keep up with the trends.

    426: 1001 Nights: Djinning Up Some Trouble

    14/01/2026 | 1h 9 mins.
    🧞‍♂️Trying to meet the love of your life? Maybe ask for help from two genies trying to kill each other.🧞‍♂️

    Even if you're not trying to meet the love of your life or, like the characters in today's story, actively trying to avoid meeting the love of your life because you really don't want to marry, you still might end up falling for someone anyway. And then maybe dying of a broken heart because that's apparently actually a thing.
    😈 The Creature: Ebu Gogo

    They will take your stuff and your children...and then ask the children how to cook themselves because no one wants to eat raw children, not even hairy monsters with (maybe) dog teeth.

About Myths and Legends

Jason Weiser and Carissa Weiser tell stories from myths, legends, and folklore that have shaped cultures throughout history. Some, like the stories of Aladdin, King Arthur, and Hercules are stories you think you know, but with surprising origins. Others are stories you might not have heard, but really should. All the stories are sourced from world folklore, but retold for modern ears. These are stories of wizards, knights, Vikings, dragons, princesses, and kings from the time when the world beyond the map was a dangerous and wonderful place.
