Episode Synopsis

The topic of this episode is the discovery of the Draugr, a classic old Norse monster who has at various times been compared to a zombie. We talk about the monsters and their mythology, who were not only troubled spirits but flesh-and-blood beings who still had a bitter grip on their graves and treasures. As we walk through the old stories of the Draugr, we witness the fallout of their lives. An echo of the intense feelings of the Norse toward death, work left undone, and the consequences of greed and rage. By describing the sagas so intimately, we reveal how these stories served as warning tales and portraits of humanity's own weakness, illustrating that the Draugr were every bit as much a creation of their mind as their body. In the end, this episode challenges listeners to reflect on the haunting legacy of the Draugr and the universal truths contained within such old tales.Don’t forget to subscribe, like, and share the show…You can tip us at https://4everparanormal.captivate.fm/supportYou can contact us at [email protected] You can follow us at: https://www.4everparanormal.comYou can find us on Facebook @ 4EverParanormalYou can follow us on Instagram @ 4EverParanormalhttps://www.youtube.com/@4everparanormal#aliens, #bigfoot, #cryptids, #cryptozoology, #demons, #ghosts, #haunted, #monsters, #paranormal, #scary, #sightings, #stories, #supernatural, #ufos, #UAPs, #unexplained, #witches, #vampire, #werewolf, #dogman, #Brazil, #Rougarou, #metaphysics, #Urban legends, #popculture, #exorcism, #elves, #elf, #mandela effect, #shadow people, #Hat Man, #Time Travelparanormal podcast, cryptids and monsters, UFOs and aliens, ghost stories, unexplained mysteries, Norse mythology, Viking folklore, Draugr legends, supernatural phenomena, hauntings and spirits, folklore and legends, government conspiracies, historical hauntings, Halloween folklore, Viking zombies, UAP sightings, mythical creatures, ghost hunting, supernatural experiences, unexplained occurrences
