Bonus Re-release Mega Episode: Stories from Newfoundland and Labrador
Newfoundland and Labrador, joined Canada in 1949 with its own fully formed society. Many aspects of our cultural heritage persist today including our language and folklore. In part 1 of this bonus re-release episode we share listener stories including death tokens, a ghostly chicken, the Old Hag and more. In part 2, we’ll share stories of heroes and legends from the Newfoundland Rangers to the rescue of almost 200 Americans from their
shipwrecked Truxtun and Pollux by civilians in a small outport community to the possibly supernatural origins of Father Duffy’s Well. Then, we are so proud to bring you folklore and tradition specifically from Labrador. Ever hear of the evil polar bear the Nanurluk? What about the tradition of Nalujuk Night? You better watch out, you better not cry or you’ll face the Nalujuk on Old
Christmas Day.
Warning: some language or themes may not be suitable for all ages.
