Episode 42: Dangerous Datura-- Drugs, visions, and mythology

Datura is somehow the nightshade that no one knows about. And yet, despite that it's been used throughout the world to connect with the divine and peer into the future. This deadly plant has a rich lore, both in modern horror stories and the mythology of the past surrounding the vivid hallucinations it produces and the deftness with which it takes the lives of its users. I guarantee, this is the most interesting plant you've never heard of.
