Step into the shadows (and Wi-Fi dead zones) with The Strange History Podcast in this 11-episode journey through trolls across time and continents. Host Amy takes you from Norse fjords to Iceland’s lava fields, Danish bridge builders, Swedish silver-mine spirits, Finnish peikko, British trows, German kobolds, Breton korrigans, Slavic leshies, and a parade of global ogres — Persian divs, Indian rakshasas, Chinese yaoguai, African tikoloshes, Pacific taniwha, even Himalayan yetis — before landing in the modern era of neon-haired dolls and internet troublemakers. Each chapter blends folklore, history, and humor (with fake ads you didn’t know you needed), revealing why trolls still lurk in stories, mountains, and comment sections worldwide.
