In this episode of the Strange History Podcast, we discuss some of the oddest books in history. We cover six books, including the Codex Gigas, the Voynich Manuscript, and the Book of Shadows. The Codex Gigas is known as the Devil's Bible and is famous for its size and intricate illustrations. The Voynich Manuscript is a mysterious manuscript that has baffled scholars and cryptographers for centuries. The Book of Shadows is a religious text used by practitioners of the modern pagan religion of Wicca. We go over information about the history, content, and mysteries surrounding each of these books.

This episode of The Strange History Podcast was lovingly crafted with the help of ElevenLabs.io — the magical technology that gives Amy her time to sleep, eat, work and spend time with her dog Jack. While some might say she sounds too good to be true, we assure you, Amy is absolutely a real person… who just happens to have access to studio-grade AI vocal cords and an unnatural ability to pronounce “necromancy” without flinching. Any resemblance to an AI is purely coincidental — and mildly flattering. Dan the announcers name is really Bill and Patrick, the fake ad guy who thinks he is funny? well he is questionable at best. So yes, AI was used but the people are real and the shinanigans are.... well.... shinanigans.
