Ep. 08: Hobgoblin in the Ninth Century (Medieval Beasts)
In this episode, we look at an account of a hobgoblin in ninth-century France. This account comes from a ninth-century Carolingian author named Notker who wrote a biography of Charlemagne.
For a copy of Notker's biography, see:

I also reference the M.A. Thesis of a certain Klayton Amos Tietjen at the University of Tennessee. For this thesis, see:
