About this listen
In this nightmarish episode, Kelsey dives into one of folklore’s most gruesome creatures aloud to Kaylee and Sheila—the skinless, corpse-rotting terror known as the Nuckelavee.
Born from the dark shores of the Orkney Islands, the Nuckelavee is part horse, part man, and all rot. But is it just a monster story… or a reflection of how we process disease, death, and decay?
Together, the trio dives into its chilling origins, how it might’ve been shaped by Viking trauma or medieval public health fears, and why it still lingers in our cultural nightmares.
Some monsters chase you. This one just spreads.
