In this episode of International Supernatural, Liam and Alana have the local exorcist on stand-by to prevent them from becoming possessed by Dastardly Demons. Liam scours his old history textbooks and the ancient scrolls he keeps in his attic to bring you his top 5 scariest demons from around the world. While Alana narrows her focus to one badass bitch and introduces you to one of the earliest women to stick it to the patriarchy, the demoness Lilith.

Tangents include: teenage Liam's very short stint as a Kallabist, geeking out about etymology, alternative names for this podcast, and Alana and Liam butchering Britney Spears songs for a laugh.
