In this family style special, Emily dishes up the history of the truly unique werewolves of Ireland. Laingnech Faoladh, leader of a fearsome and deadly clan, may have been the first of his kind in the land, but his legacy and that of his people would live on for centuries. The werewolves of Ireland would become so infamous that tales of encounters with them would travel well beyond the shores of the Emerald Isle, making their way into the halls of foreign kings. The lore behind these lycanthropes is un-lycan(y) other and makes for a delightfully carnivorous meal.Find Homespun Haints on your favorite social media or streaming platform at https://homespunhaints.com/To stay on top of all the latest from Pineapple Pizza Podcast, be sure to check out our website at www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com where you will find links to merch, Patreon and a variety of ways to support the show, as well as detailed episode descriptions and regional specials.
