Listen Later

šŸŽ„ Merry Christmas from That Would Be Rad!
This week, we unwrap the eerie side of the holidays in an episode brimming with chilling folklore, mysterious legends, and just the right touch of festive fright.

From the spine-crawling menace of Krampus to the ghostly march of the Night Folk, this isn’t your average holiday special—this is Christmas with a twist...and it's only "Volume One".

As the snow settles and shadows stretch, we delve into tales that’ll make your cocoa go cold: the sinister Frau Perchta, known for her gruesome justice; the haunting echoes of Hawaii's Night Marchers reflected in Alpine traditions; and the lesser-known horrors of Bloody Thomas and Knocking Nights. Each story unearths a deeper connection between cultures and the shared human fascination with what lurks in the dark.

But don’t stop there—there’s so much more. Join us as we explore the global phenomenon of Krampus celebrations, reveal the hidden threads of ancient traditions, and uncover the spine-tingling lore behind forgotten holiday figures like Pelzmartel. It’s the perfect blend of history, horror, and holiday cheer that’ll leave you thrilled, chilled, and eager for more.

So, grab a cozy blanket, dim the lights, and press play for a holiday adventure like no other. Whether you’re here for the ghostly tales, historical oddities, or to hang with your two favorite paranormal pals, this episode will leave you saying: That was rad.
