Mysteries and Monsters: Episode 222 Winter Legends and Lore with Chad Lewis

<div>On todays episode, I welcome Chad Lewis back to the show to discuss his new book Winter Legends and Lore. <br> <br> Winter may seem like a quiet time, but it is actually filled with bizarre tales and stories of weird spirits, odd tales of Santa Claus, bizarre superstitions, strange weather predictions, Krampus the Christmas Monster, little people, New Year's Eve rituals, the deadly wendigo, and numerous other Holiday traditions for the darkest days of the year. <br> <br> Chad and I discuss some of the stranger traditions that exist along with some of the darker creatures that lurk in dark nights of winter. <br> <br> The book is complimented with some beautiful illustrations by Morgan Knudsen to add another layer of magic to this marvellous collection. <br> <br> The book can be found <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Winter-Legends-Lore-Chad-Lewis-ebook/dp/B0BPY6ZK3P/ref=sr_1_2?keywords=chad+lewis&amp;qid=1675614752&amp;sr=8-2">here:</a> <br> <br> Chad's site is <a href="https://www.chadlewisresearch.com/">here:</a> <br> <br> A big thank you as always to Chad for making time for us. <br> <br> Our Patreon is now live, with bonus content, early release of the regular show, articles and more.  <br> <br> Join <a href="https://www.patreon.com/mysteriesandmonsters?fan_landing=true">here</a> now for the flat fee of $4 a month which is a bargain!    <br> <br> Don't forget, you can now show your support with our Merchandise shop on Redbubble!
