EP62: Gird Your Werewolves

Hello, Lovelies! This week you’ll find information on our Apple Podcast review giveaway and the sources to Tiffany’s subject! This week, Tiffany takes a singular source from 1590, and runs wild with it. “How wild?”, you ask. As wild as a werewolf (the Bedburg Werewolf to be precise).  Peter Stumpp was a wealthy farmer who sold his soul to the devil for a magic girdle (or belt… whatever) that turned him into a werewolf on demand.  Was he actually a werewolf? (Duh.) Was he a serial killer with a lot of body hair? Did the 1580’s (mis)understanding of mental health issues play a role in his conviction?  Or was Peter just a victim of the Catholic witch hunt against Protestants? Tune in and decide for yourself as Tiffany attempts to seduce you with ye olden language and girdles.

Remember, Lovelies! To enter the giveaway you need to leave a rating and review on Apple Podcasts! (make sure to send us a screenshot of your review!) We’ll draw a winner one we reach 100 ratings/reviews!
