Shadow Carriers

Asador returns to his family’s Armenian village to mourn his mother, only to be woken at midnight by a soft scratching in the walls of his childhood home. Each morning, a new list of names waits for him in yellowed, cramped handwriting, and each morning, more of them have been crossed out - all except his own, which now has a date written beside it._____________________________Please be sure to like us on social media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shadowcarriersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shadowcarriersIf you like what you hear and want to buy your storytellers a drink, you can catch us at @shadowcarriers on Venmo.If you’ve enjoyed this episode and want to support our work, become a patron of the podcast!

Nine students. Four minutes. A crowd of three thousand that never looked up. In 1881, a Munich art school threw a pub crawl around the world, and a single spark turned a themed party into a pyre. Why did no one scream? Why did no one help? Come with us as we uncover what really happened during this tragedy and explore the old German legend of the Feuermann._____________________________Please be sure to like us on social media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shadowcarriersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shadowcarriersIf you like what you hear and want to buy your storytellers a drink, you can catch us at @shadowcarriers on Venmo.If you’ve enjoyed this episode and want to support our work, become a patron of the podcast!

Somewhere between Chicago and New Orleans, a string of river towns keeps a secret: channels that carry the mermaids home. Our story takes us to Charleston, 1867, where an apothecary named Dr. Trott put a “captured mermaid” on display. The torrential rain & flooding began the next day. The water remembers every debt - and the sea always collects._____________________________Please be sure to like us on social media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shadowcarriersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shadowcarriersIf you like what you hear and want to buy your storytellers a drink, you can catch us at @shadowcarriers on Venmo.If you’ve enjoyed this episode and want to support our work, become a patron of the podcast!

Every city’s transit system has its own legends, but few are as chilling as Stockholm’s. In the first of our Four Shadows series, guest writer Andi Bishop traces the story of the Silverpilen, the ghost train said to haunt the Stockholm metro, and the unfinished station where it makes its only stop. When a girl boards the wrong train after a late night out, she learns why the locals say “only the dead get off at Kymlinge.”_____________________________Please be sure to like us on social media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shadowcarriersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shadowcarriersIf you like what you hear and want to buy your storytellers a drink, you can catch us at @shadowcarriers on Venmo.If you’ve enjoyed this episode and want to support our work, become a patron of the podcast!

Birmingham, AL may not be considered a "big city" - but it is the mother of big cities. After the Civil War, Birmingham became one of the lead producers of the iron that would be used to build New York & Chicago's skyscrapers. The largest manufacturer of this material was called Sloss Furnace, and the harrowing, violent stories that have risen from its past leave no question as to why it is now considered one of the most haunted locations in the United States. _____________________________Please be sure to like us on social media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shadowcarriersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shadowcarriers/Twitter: https://twitter.com/shadowcarriersIf you like what you hear and want to buy your storytellers a drink, you can catch us at @shadowcarriers on Venmo.If you want more "Shadow Carriers", check out our Patreon at: patreon.com/shadowcarriers.

In Glasgow, it was not an adult that sounded the alarm. It was the children. Word spread playground to playground that a seven-foot creature with iron teeth had eaten two local boys and he was coming for more. Hundreds of children armed themselves with kitchen knives, sharpened sticks, and stones and laid siege to the Southern Necropolis. There was a monster on the loose - and they would be the ones to kill it._____________________________Please be sure to like us on social media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shadowcarriersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shadowcarriersIf you like what you hear and want to buy your storytellers a drink, you can catch us at @shadowcarriers on Venmo.If you’ve enjoyed this episode and want to support our work, become a patron of the podcast!
