The Pandemonium Witches: Murders, Mystery, and Mayhem

S1.E71 - Loch, Shock, and Two Smoking Bagpipes: The Hunt for Nessie Continues


Listen Later

The Pandemonium team is taking a deep dive - literally - into one of the most legendary cryptids of all time - and Meg's personal favorite cryptid.

Is Nessie a prehistoric sea monster?

A very confused eel?

Or just an elaborate hoax that refuses to die?

With over 1,100 recorded sightings, sonar scans, grainy photos, and even a government-seized mystery corpse (yes, really), the Loch Ness Monster remains one of the greatest mysteries of our time. We’re talking ancient folklore, fake fossils, monster-hunting expeditions gone wrong, and a magician who claimed he summoned Nessie from the deep.

Join Rachel, Cat, and Meg as they wade through decades of hoaxes, scientific studies, and truly unhinged theories in search of the truth. Is there something lurking beneath the murky waters of Loch Ness, or is this just the world’s longest-running tourist trap? Grab your bagpipes and a dram of whisky - this one’s a beast.
