Welcome to Season 2, Episode 11 of the Cryptid Ramblers Podcast. In this episode we are staying within the world of Demons, but this time we are looking into the psychological impact of the phenomena.
As always we start with the academic side of the discussion by looking into the history of the various conditions and undiagnosed symptoms. Then we look to tackle the impact of religion and how each one has its own belief and understanding of possession, and more importantly how it deals with it.
Of course you cant look at something like possession and not look into the affect on mental health. Not just the personal impact on the sufferer but also the stigma surrounding it
So please join us as we take a slightly different turn in this episode and explore what is still a very fascinating subject with many different angles.

Welcome to Season 2, Episode 9 of the Cryptid Ramblers Podcast. In this episode we are diving into another fabled cryptid, hotly linked to the focus of our last episode.
Steeped in history and legend, this creature can be found in folklore across Europe starting in Greece and their mythology and also being quite prominent in Norse mythology also in parts of Scandinavia.
As most people will know they are also linked heavily with Vampires, which is why in most pop culture references you cant have one with other. In this episode we discuss the similarities including a very condition that caused people to be accused of being both.

Welcome to Season 2 of the Cryptid Ramblers Podcast. We kick off this year of course with Episode 1 and we hope you are not disappointed.
Our research was initially looking into cave systems around the world and the strange goings on within them. Then we were both taken in a slightly different direction, with the further we got into it, the closer we found another subject matter. So letting the subject take us down a natural path, we ended up at what is quite a popular and interesting theory.
We were taken all around the world from the Arctic, Scandinavia and even parts of Europe, including the UK. We discuss real world evidence and expeditions, as well as sightings and interactions. There is even involvement from important figure heads from world leaders and politicians to top religious figures.
Join us as we delve into the possibility of there being an inner earth and whether we believe in such a possibility.
