Welcome to Ravenbrook. A town in northern Maine where mystery grows like a crop, monsters lurk at every tree line, and phantoms travel through more shadows than not. In this week’s first tale, we get to know a young doctor whose troubled past brings him back to the town of his turbulent youth. Get ready for this tale that explores the space between mental illness and Forteana. We follow that with a Christmas tale that simultaneously gives us our first taste of New England folk magic AND we get a few more clues about the mysterious founding of our creepy little settlement. Sit back and enjoy two more Tales From Ravenbrook! Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling is created for adult audiences only. The content and discussion in this show will necessarily engage with various accounts that include violence, anxiety, fear, and occasional body horror. Much of it will be emotionally and intellectually challenging to engage with. We will flag especially graphic or intense content so as to never put you in an uninformed or unprepared position. We will do our best to make this a space where we can engage bravely, empathetically, and thoughtfully with difficult content every week. This week’s episode includes descriptions/sound related the following sensitive content: High Anxiety SituationsExtreme Graphic ViolenceViolence Against ChildrenDismembermentCannibalismMental HealthSchizophreniaHallucination Check it Out! Dark Villagehttps://a.co/d/c0A9BHo Support Campfire on Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/campfiretalesofthestrangeandunsettling Satisfy All of Your Merch Needs:https://www.teepublic.com/stores/campfire-tales-of-the-strange-and-unsettling?ref_id=25702 Join the conversation on social media at www.campfirepodcastnetwork.com Discord:https://discord.gg/43CPN3rz Instagram:instagram.com/campfire.tales.podcast GoodPods:https://goodpods.app.link/T0qvGnXnplb Twitter: www.twitter.com/campfiretotsau Facebook:www.facebook.com/campfire.tales.podcast Visit Our Linktree for Any and All Campfire Info:https://linktr.ee/Campfirepodcast Special Thanks: Gregg Martin for music contributions!
