Beasts of the Olde World
Explorations of ancient folklore and mythical creatures from around the world.
Hi everybody, my name is Nick and this is Beasts of the Olde World: a channel that deep dives into ancient mythology & folklore, and mythical creatures from all over the world. I have a huge passion for foklore and mythology - I am fascinated by the way in which these Olde Tales have endured for centuries, often through oral tradition, and endlessly intrigued that these tales - and the creatures within them - seem to be a window not only to our shared past but to who we are culturally, and as a species.
I'm really looking forward to exploring mythology with you all, & providing high-quality foklore content across these topics.
