Kuchisake Onna

We cover the slit-mouthed yokai Kuchisake Onna and try a couple interesting sakes.

Been a bit longer than expected of this episode but here it is. This one is on the Waverly Hills Sanatorium, a charming fixer-upper located in Louisville, Kentucky. With such exquisite features such as leftover lead based paint, body chute, spacious add-on, and of course hauntings, this sanatorium/prison/church is fine location to relax or leave your tuberculosis riddled family. Our drinks for this one include a few shots that fix a bit with the theme but you’ll have to give the episode a listen if you want to hear more.

List some of the equipment needed to find ghosts and a few user submitted drinks

We go into some of the unsettling aspects of the familiar yet different liminal spaces. Although it may have been more recently acknowledged in the paranormal they have been around for a nit of time, and some of the examples we talk about support that. Our drink takes inspiration from a common liminal space this time so we have called it the Banana Backrooms. So no clip yourself into a place of transition where you can hear the next episode of Til the Last Drop.

The second part of the zombie episode that covers a few examples in video games and the drink, a ten year rum, Deadhead

In the first part we look at the history and impact of the idea of zombies in media.

We go over possibly the most well known monsters that have been seen in film and the drink this time was inspired by Dr. Frankenstein as is was a pieced-together monster.

We talk about the banshee and the kelpie in this episode. As well as take advantage of poitin in our drink recipe.

This one covers the Hoia Baciu Forest, Island of the Dolls, and Aokigahara the suicide forest. We have also created a special drink for this forest themed episode.

It has seemed like an eternity since our last episode, but we are excited about this one. We talk a bit about vampires in their different origins and how they changed over multiple areas of the world. Then we try a bit of the “vampire’s blood” itself with a Cherry Glühwein, a wine that could make you think of the dark cellars of a looming mountaintop castle. Tightly congested with various casks emanating an oaky scent which seems strong enough to choke out the light, it would appear the primary resident would enjoy many lifetimes of the drink… Not all is as it seems.
