    Apr 27 2026

    Folklore tells us that ghosts can be many things, but the most common view is that they are echoes of the past that are still present today. Which is why one type of building is the perfect place for a haunting.

    Narrated and produced by Aaron Mahnke, with writing by Alex Robinson and research by Jamie Vargas.

  • Lore 304: Cult Hero
    Apr 20 2026

    Few groups leave a society unsettled more than the ones that buck the system and reject the mainstream path. But a few have even managed to leave the people around them more than a little terrified.

    Narrated and produced by Aaron Mahnke, with writing by GennaRose Nethercott, research by Cassandra de Alba, and music by Chad Lawson.

I have followed Aaron and Lore since I came across the show in late 2016 and I couldn’t get enough. The depth of story and amount of research he and his team put into each show are nothing short of stellar and I feel privileged to be able to benefit from their work and production. Each episode is entertaining, intriguing, and occasionally we get the origins of sayings and the like which fills my trivia knowledge bucket. Thanks for all you do! If you haven’t listened, start today!

Great podcast and well researched
