This week the Jackalopes embark on a historical journey to uncover the origins and evolution of ghouls and goblins. Our host takes us through centuries of folklore and mythology, revealing the eerie and fascinating history of these supernatural beings.

Starting with ancient Mesopotamia and Persia, where ghouls were first mentioned in texts as flesh-eating demons, we learn how these malevolent creatures became deeply ingrained in Middle Eastern folklore. From there, we travel to Europe, where goblins made their mark in folklore, becoming mischievous and often malicious spirits known for their tricks and pranks.
