In the 1982 horror film *The Beast Within*, the fictional town of Nioba, Mississippi represents every nightmare about small Southern towns with buried secrets. A place where family bloodlines control justice, where monsters are created in basements and fed on human flesh, and where vengeance follows a seventeen-year cycle—the same cycle as the cicada emerging from underground. Though Nioba exists only on film, it was brought to terrifying life in the real Mississippi swamps around Jackson, Raymond, and Bolton. This is the story of a cinematic location that captures the darkest possibilities of Southern Gothic horror—and why its atmosphere of dread feels disturbingly real.   destinationterror.com   #NiobaMississippi #TheBeastWithin #DestinationTerror #SouthernGothic #HorrorMovieLocation #CicadaHorror #1980sHorror #FilmLocation #MississippiHorror #CultClassic #MovieMonsters #HorrorHistory   Destination Terror: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/destination-terror Freaky Folklore: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/freaky-folklore Carman's Crypt (Original Horror): https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Deadly Intent (True Crime): https://www.carman-carrion.com/   SUPPORT THE SHOW: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/CarmanCarrion Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/carmancarrion   CONNECT WITH CARMAN: Website: https://www.carman-carrion.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CarmanCarrion Twitter/X: https://x.com/CarmanCarrion Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carmancarrion/   SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6oNoUJi3M9rNlzKOzOH3Zf iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/destination-terror/id1550364606 Your support helps bring you more terrifying tales!   DISCOVER MORE HORROR: http://eeriecast.com/ https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Crypt Shop: https://the-crypt-shop-2.myshopify.com/   MUSIC CREDITS: Music and sound effects provided by: CO.AG, Myuu, Jinglepunks, Epidemic Sound, Kevin MacLeod, Dark Music, and Soundstripe.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Cicadas are slowly on the wane towards the end of March. It's been a pretty Noisy March so far, typical of the regular system whereby Cicadas have a three, five, or seven year life cycle. Black field crickets (Teleogryllus commodus) are still making a heck of a noise in the late afternoon/evening, especially in the North Island and top of the South. They'll be enjoying that dodgy boy-girl party for at least another month or more! Black field crickets make their characteristic noise by rubbing their wings together (great mating calls). You won't see them often, as they hide in cracks in the soil during the day, but when the sun goes down the crickets will come to the surface to eat grasses – they can do a lot of damage to pasture and lawns, leaving bare soil around their home cracks. Control is quite hard. In the old days, farmers used wheat, soaked in Maldison, strewn over the paddock in early summer (January is the month before crickets become adults and hence, reproduce). For a lawn it might be a nice idea to pour water with a good dash of dish-washing liquid down the holes of these insects in the middle of a hot day. The crickets emerge in the noon-day sun (because the soapy water stings their eyes, I reckon) and the sun will heat the black bodies up real quick (Natue's Micro-wave oven!). Another “singer” in autumn is the Katydid (Caedicia simplex); mostly in the afternoon and early evening. It creates a rather unique noise by rubbing the edges of its stiff forewings together, like a fingernail on a comb. The noise has the quality produced by a ventriloquist – the insect “throws its voice” so you can never be sure where it is calling from. Katydids feed on garden plants, especially flowers, and they truly seem to like the roses and Dahlias that flower in autumn! They are well-camouflaged on green plants, so birds, frogs, and lizards can find it tricky to locate them. Gardeners who feel they're being “attacked” by these insects often ask if there's a way to “get them” with some insecticide… “Only when you're very good at ventriloquism” is my answer – I love them!!

How many different ways can we refer to portals as a means of magical retreat? Bay and Laura discuss their plan for portals, wonder about what yours are, and discuss the mid-winter experience using some new oracle decks. PS. Cicadas, yes or no? 

If I remember correctly, cicadas used to be quite a bit more common in the Auckland Summer Months. Yep they changed from year to year and occasionally almost completely quiet, but that was rare, to be frank. In Christchurch they've been a lot less noisy – especially the past 4 years or so. But early 2026 it started with a few choruses and now the “clappers” are also occupying the sound-scape. Male cicadas have so-called Timpany, which are little drum cavities on the underside of the bellies. They look a little bit like bent and shaped flaps. The timpany are really good at amplifying the sounds they make to lure females closer and closer – Party time! Females are known to aim for the noisiest male on the block. Egg-laying is happening from now on, at this time of the year. When the female has a good number of fertilised eggs to get rid of, she climbs into a suitable host tree. Her Ovipositor is a pretty useful tool to lay eggs inside the wood of a branch; a dozen or two are laid in an elegant pattern in the bark, where the eggs develop into very small larvae; these will emerge late autumn or early winter. Gardeners are often quite good at finding these herring-bone pattern because the damage in the twigs often causes weak-spots, leading to broken branches; Fruit growers are not keen on having many damaged branches in the orchard. Life Cycle: The eggs hatch in a few months and the tiny “nymphs” drop off the branch or twig in which they were born... drop to the ground and start digging. They create a tunnel and a cell around a tree root (or shrub root – or even grass roots) and suck the sweet phloem juices out of the root system – sugar is turned into protein and the body grows. They shed their skin 4, 5, 6 times and a few years later (up to 5 or 6 years in the soil!) they climb to the top layers of the soil... waiting for a perfect time to emerge at night in late spring or summer At night the nymphs come out of the soil, climb up a tree trunk and grasp the bark Their skin splits and out comes a fully winged adult cicada; it pumps up its wings and is ready for some R&R... singing and dancing Threats to larval cicadas: When they are in the top layers of the soil late winter/early spring, they are in easy reach of the probing bills of kiwi. Yep – cicada nymphs are the spring-time bulk food of Northland Brown Kiwi.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Crowdscience listener Ryosuke grew up in Japan, and spent his childhood summers catching cicadas in the park. For people in Japan, the sound of their chirping signals the first true summer day. But until they emerge, these enigmatic insects live underground - often for many years. Ryosuke wants to know how they know the time is right, and CrowdScience is on the case. Presenter Anand Jagatia pieces together the story of the species, and meets the small but dedicated group of academics worldwide who've been able to study them. In a field near Girona, Spain, he meets a scientist who's spent the last twenty years counting them. How will a temperature probe help us work out when they might emerge, and what are they doing underground for so many years anyway? In nearby Barcelona, another scientist cuts open the stem of a tomato plant and Anand watches as the sap flows out. Could this be a clue to how cicadas sense what's going on above ground? And he meets a cicada breeder in the US who has discovered a link between the life cycle of cicadas and the fruiting of a peach tree. Armed with that knowledge, can you really make time move faster for tree and insect alike?

"For this year's Autumn Project, I was excited to have the opportunity to work with a sample collected near my original home.  "“An Intense Calling” is field-recording-based piece based on a recording of cicadas and katydids in Dingman's Ferry, PA collected by Dan Bodah. Growing up near the Delaware Water Gap on the other side in New Jersey, I was excited to think about both the feelings this recordings evoked in me, my memories of when I've heard the cicadas. I've combined this with my own recording of cicadas taken in NJ in Summer 2025 to create a conversation between the original sample and my experiences. I used additional field recordings that evoke my place-based memories, vocalizations on the lifecycle of cicadas, the idea that cicada sound can be both overwhelming and melodic, and potential conversations between broods to create the final piece. The title of this piece references both the aforementioned overwhelming experience of the cicadas and my own pull towards creating/capturing/manipulating sounds.  "Additional field recordings of cicadas, frying pan percussion, and water collected by artist. Vocals performed by artist. Additional digital synthesis created in VCVRack2, track created and recorded in VCVRack2 with reverb and delay effects added to field recordings and original sample." Cicadas at Dingmans Ferry reimagined by Stephanie E. Vasko.

 "When I heard Miyu's recording of cicadas, I was brought back to humid late summers in Japan — where I lived for two years in the mid-aughts — particularly the time around the Obon festival, when, traditionally, the veil between the living and the dead is said to be at its thinnest.  "Cicadas, in a synesthetic way to me, are the sound of that veil shaking in a hot breeze, the static cling of the cosmic curtain, and there's a shiver to be savoured hearing them crackle and seethe as you climb the forested steps to the shrine that overlooks your neighborhood and pass through the red torii gate, half-hoping to be transported to some liminal, Twin Peaks by way of Haruki Murakami spirit lodge, but settling contentedly for a choco-banana from a festival vendor before the sweaty walk home." Cicadas in Niigata, Japan reimagined by Casey Broadwater.

Listen to music from American musicians, the harpist Ashley Jackson and the Oklahoma-based Cherokee singer and songwriter Ken Pomeroy. Both sets come from our Soundcheck series of live performances and interviews, available as a twice-weekly podcast, wherever you get podcasts. With her clever guitar playing and powerful stories, Oklahoma-based Cherokee singer and songwriter Ken Pomeroy draws on brutal honesty and the songwriting skills she has honed since she was 11 years old. She's already found herself on the big screen and small when her song “Wall of Death” made its way onto the Twisters soundtrack, while Hulu's Reservation Dogs featured her soul-mining gem, “Cicadas.” Pomeroy touches on her Native American heritage (mentioning coyotes – a troubling omen) and somewhat painful, personal past, as she plays songs from her 2025 album Cruel Joke (Rounder Records), in-studio.Ken Pomeroy Set list: 1. Stranger 2. Days Getting Darker 3. Flannel CowboyThen, listen to harpist, soloist, collaborator (Harlem Chamber Players), educator, and arranger Ashley Jackson as she presents music from her 2025 album called Take Me To The Water (Decca Records). In the American spiritual tradition, water is a powerful metaphor for freedom and for moving from this life to the next. Jackson's record takes listeners on a watery journey through works by Debussy, the jazz harpist Alice Coltrane, blues, and some classic spirituals. As Jackson declares in a statement about the record, ”Water is something that we all need. It sustains us, it gives us life. Take Me to the Water reminds us we have a choice: we can let water be the thing that divides us, or, it can allow us to come together through our shared humanity.” She plays some of her arrangements of spirituals on a sculpted maple harp, in-studio.Ashley Jackson's Set list: 1. River Jordan 2. Deep River II 3. Take Me to the Water I

Sarah thought she was being frugal and industrious, but now she has a stained sink and a broken olive oil dispenser. We learn why an AI tech bro wants to see your eyeballs, and Susie's mad about it. We hear cicadas play Pachelbel's Canon in D on their abdomen (or buttholes?). Sarah says an adult star got a billboard to advertise her OnlyFans, but Christians are defacing it for Jesus.

Sarah and her gf got a caricature, and it is truly the stuff of nightmares. We debate whether the "artist" was intentionally making it awful, why he wanted to give her gigantic boobs, and what message he was trying to send. Sarah watched a new series on Netflix and now she is fascinated by equine social culture, but is simultaneously against horse racing. We do have some questions about horse transportation--not when you ride a horse, but when the horse takes a road trip to get to the next race. We discuss an algae bloom that is turning seals into rabid beasts and Sarah thinks it's a foreboding about the apocalypse. We learn about Alice Ball who cured a killer disease, but the credit was given to some douchebags who didn't do a darn thing. Plus, we hear about a pest that is terrorizing a town and Susie somehow relates it to how she's a pretty randy gal. And Sarah ruins cicadas for all of us.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:Get $10 off your first month's subscription and free shipping when you go to https://nutrafol.com and enter the promo code BRAINCANDYThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
