Urban Legends Unmasked

De: Chad Lehrmann
  • Resumen

  • We all have a story from our youth that terrified us. One that terrifies and grips our minds in such a way that we develop a deep and abiding morality that can trace its roots to that campfire, or movie, or night that our father sat us down to tell us about the Hookman or some other horror.That last one was my story. The story of my father telling me the gory story of a murderer with a hook for a hand. And today, I am a happy, well-adjusted horror writer and high school teacher. Who still loves scary stories. Each episode of Urban Legends Unmasked will look at famous Urban Legends and the impact they have on society, and the moral they attempted to teach. But beyond universal legends, I want to you to share your favorite urban legends or local stories and future episodes will look to dive into the deep dark secrets of your home town!

  • Final Episode- Decompartmentalization

      Follow my new podcast, Culture Cuts with Chad Lehrmann at all the same sites!

    We separate our lives into so many parts.  Work and home life, church and public life, online and reality.  I've done it, too.  I used to manage two podcasts- one for education, one for urban legends analysis.  It got so tiring trying to maintain those two distinct sites, so I decided to merge them.  Maybe it's time we merge our lives again.  Make who we are online the same as who we are in person.  Get rid of our 'voices' we adopt to convey a sense of power and just speak as we naturally do. 


    This is the first episode of my new podcast which will share some of the older podcasts over educational issues alongside my "Urban Legends Unmasked" series and this Didactic Cafe podcast.  Look for that classic content along with all new podcasts coming at you weekly!

  • Massachusetts High Sheriff George Corwin
    Dec 3 2022

    25 year old George Corwin was the sheriff that oversaw the Salem Witch Trials.  He developed a reputation for being a tough investigator- and by tough, I mean cruel.  Nicknamed "the Strangler" for some of his techniques, he cut a terrifying path across history.

    The foundation of his home now resides below a hotel in Salem called the Merchant- one of the allegedly most haunted houses in Massachusetts.  Is The Strangler back for more victims- or are his victims back for vengeance?

  • Maryland's Moll Dyer
    Nov 16 2022

    A lonely woman lives in the woods of Maryland in 1697.  When a cruel winter strikes, the community blames this Moll Dyer of being a witch and bringing the catastrophe down upon them.  She escapes their clutches, but is found frozen to death on a rock.  A rock, which legend holds, bears her handprint as a reminder of her tragic- and falsely accused- death.

OK retelling and good historical tie -but really?

Sorry hate to jump on a band wagon-but his explanation of why he checks his car shows all the white male privilege. As a woman, always lock my car, approach from rear so I can see back seat, never park next to sliding side doors etc etc.
