Thank you everyone for being patient with us as we took a break to see family, but we're back at it! To kick off the month of December and Christmas, on this episode we are talking Winter Monsters and Christmas Creatures. We will discuss and tell tales about the Yule Cat, the Kallikantzaroi, the Nuckelavee, and the Qallupilliut. What do they have in common? Well let's jus say that children are on the menu on this episode of Under the Pendulum Podcast. 

Thank You for listening, please like and subscribe where it is applicable, it helps get us noticed.
