Myths and Legends

Story One – America’s VampiresOver the decades, successive literary and cinematic offerings have gradually bastardised the original interpretation of the vampire from that of a terrifying and murderous monster, into a somewhat romanticised and almost comedic caricature. But the reality behind the concept of vampirism is far removed from the fantasy, borne out of a flurry of brutal and truly horrifying murders. In this story, we meet America’s Vampires.Story Two – The Scourge of the SkinwalkerFor centuries, the most southerly regions of the United States have been plagued by stories of strange beings that travel under the cover of darkness, attacking any human beings they encounter without fear or remorse. In our second story, we explore the Scourge of the Skinwalker.MUSIC Tracks used by kind permission of Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0Tracks used by kind permission of CO.AG
