Strange Truths and Tall Tales: Product of Newfoundland
Robert (@productofnfld)
26 episodes
3 days ago
We tell all kinds of stories from Newfoundland, Canada but the ‘strange and unusual’ is our sweet-spot. You’ll hear true-life accounts of death-defying courage, tales of horrible sea monsters and stories of murderous mummers. Alongside the history and folklore, we chat with modern-day storytellers who stop by to talk about their work. It’s a bit like ‘Ripley’s Believe It or Not’ meets ‘Entertainment Tonight.’ Strange bedfellows?  Definitely. It’s fun though. So, spend some time with us unravelling ‘the yarns that knit ya'.

The Thunder Growl (Halloween Special Pt. 1)

It’s October and the nights are getting noticeably longer. As darkness takes a hold. I’ve decided to embrace the ‘spooky season’ for some short Halloween episodes drawn fromNewfoundland history and folklore.

This instalment is a true story from the small town of Elliston (once known as Bird Island Cove).

It’s the story of an unwelcome visitor who turned up some 200 years ago.
