Legends & Spirits

It’s part 2 of our Yuletide Tales and we’ve got even more creeperific holiday folk tales and traditions from all over the world, including a door-to-door holiday tradition so spooky it'll scare the Dickens out of you (...who we’ll also be covering).

And you can’t have a two part episode without a second round of Macabre Mixology: Holiday Edition, so we’ll be batching up another festive favorite - a warm boozy concoction with a long tradition going back hundreds of years. For our Spooky Saloon, we’ll visit an old mining town just a few miles from...the North Pole, where else?!

This week on Legends & Spirits is our double double toil and trouble 2nd Annual All Hallows episode - We’re talking double the scares, double the shrieks, and double the screams and more witches, ghouls and goblins than you could shake a roll of Necco Wafers at! AND we have a spectacularly spooky guest, Emily Winter - comedian, writer, and host of the podcast - "Comedians With Ghost Stories" - sure to put the HA-HA- in your HA-alloween! 

We’ll pair tricks with treats in this week's Macabre Mixology, where we’ll batch up our version of a bloody classic cocktail that got its name from an old urban legend based on a ruthless queen. Then we’ll saddle up on our broomsticks for a trip to Salem, Massachusetts  where we’ll get into the history of none other than the Salem Witch Trials and while we’re there we’ll pay a visit to a funeral home turned speakeasy in this week’s Spooky Saloons...is it haunted? Bet your bushel of wolf's bane it is! Welcome to Legends & Spirits!

Last year's All Hallows episode was so much fun, we’re calling this our Eerie Encore of our 1st Annual Halloween Spooktacular! And stay tuned for our 2nd Annual Halloween Spooktacular which will drop this weekend just in time for your Monster Mash!

This is our extra creepy, super haunted, something wicked-this-way-comes episode. We’ll cover the history of this super fun - supernatural holiday, from its roots in Pagan harvest festivals to the door-to-door candy quests of today.

We’ll pair tricks with treats in this week's Macabre Mixology, where we’ll batch up an old  autumn favorite to warm you from the inside out. On this week’s very special 'Spooky Saloons', we’ll visit a New York landmark, a converted carriage house that Aaron Burr once called home. Legend has it... he’s still making regular appearances there along with many other long dead souls, making it one of the most haunted bars in New York.

This week on Legends & Spirits we’ll be heading to Fort Wayne, Indiana which has more legends, jailbreaking murderers, haunted theaters, stairways to hell and mythological critters than you could shake a poison spear at.

For our Macabre Mixology, we’re batching up our version of another classic cocktail, that’s sure to disappear quicker than the forest-dwelling creeper it’s named after.  And in our Spooky Saloons, we’ll belly-up with movie stars and gangsters alike at an old hotel bar and grill with a history that goes back to the 1800’s... as do some of the inhabitants.

This week on Legends & Spirits we’re heading to the Pisgah National Forest in the Appalachian Mountains of Western North Carolina where the legends are as thick as the 800 square miles of wilderness. We’re talking hangings, murders, mysterious lights in the sky, headless ghost cats, and one of the biggest and most haunted mansions in the country!  

For our Macabre Mixology we’ll be celebrating the Appalachian tradition of Moonshine with a delicious cocktail brought to us by fellow mixologists, Jay and Leah Hall. This libation is sure to be a good "thyme"!  We’ll also give you a little history of this high-octane spirit that’s sure to get your engines revving. 

In this week’s Spooky Saloons, we’re venturing to the outskirts of the Pisgah National Forest to Asheville, NC to discover a darker past to this food and drink loving town. And we’ll tell you about a local haunt known for an unlikely speciality and an apparition who roams the dark in search of..."patients" - you’ll see.
