212-Armenian Folklore: Witchy Woman

An awesome story about a young king who wants to do the impossible! And the ill-advised! And, frankly, makes a kind of stupid choice to go into the murder forest that took the lives of his father and six consecutive brothers. Inside, a deeper, darker secret lurks, one that brings fairies, witches, sorcery, and...love? The creature is a tall hairy man who takes issue with your dating choices...all while visiting half the town every night. -- The membership: https://mythpodcast.com/membership The store: https://myths.link/store The item this week (hen bag hand bag): https://myths.link/henbag Sponsors: Helix Sleep: Get a seriously supportive mattress with $100 off your first order at http://helixsleep.com/myths Best Fiends!

Jason Weiser and Carissa Weiser tell stories from myths, legends, and folklore that have shaped cultures throughout history. Some, like the stories of Aladdin, King Arthur, and Hercules are stories you think you know, but with surprising origins. Others are stories you might not have heard, but really should. All the stories are sourced from world folklore, but retold for modern ears. These are stories of wizards, knights, Vikings, dragons, princesses, and kings from the time when the world beyond the map was a dangerous and wonderful place.
