Episode 69: The History and Lore of Vampires

Tonight, we're sinking our teeth into one of the most enduring legends in human history: the vampire. From the blood-soaked myths of Eastern Europe, to the glittery chaos of modern pop culture, vampires have evolved from terrifying revenants to seductive icons - and they've left a permanent mark on our fears, our fantasies, and even our fashion. Join your hosts Lori and Tori, as we unravel the dark origins of the vampire myth, explore how real historical figures like Vlad the Impaler inspired centuries of horror, and trace how these creatures of the night have shaped everything from gothic literature to modern media. So grab your garlic, a stake or two, and step into the shadows - because tonight, we're finding out just how deep the bite of vampire lore truly goes. Happy listening!
