Podcasts about impaler dracula

That's right, dear listeners, you recognize that name. We're headed back in time to the no longer existing country of Wallachia to talk about the inspiration for one of the greatest and most classic of the horror monsters. Now our boy Vlad the Impaler, or Vlad Dracula, or however you want to refer to him, got real brutal back in his day. The Impaler isn't just a nickname they give everybody after all. So get ready for some carnage and enjoy!

This week on Wow! That's Not Normal, Chanelle & Jensen begin their entire month of all out SPOOKINESS! And on this episode, they break down the story behind the infamous ruler of Wallachia, Vlad Dracula III or as most people know him, Vlad the Impaler! They also break down how Vlad inspired Bram Stoker's Dracula; or how it really didn't believe it or not. The biggest takeaway from this episode; the way that people tortured other people back in the day was really rough man.

It's October 1st and you know what that means, party people! It's spooky season! All month long, we are going to be sharing tales of creepy history and today we kick it off with two people in history who created the iconic Frankenstein's Monster and Count Dracula--both directly and indirectly, respectively. That's right, we are discussing Mary Shelley and her novel Frankenstein Or, A Modern Prometheus as well as Vlad the Impaler and Bram Stoker's novel, Dracula. **Content Warning** Mary Shelley's story deals with a lot of loss surrounding children and suicide. Vlad the Impaler is just gruesome. Listener discretion is advised *~*~*~*~*~*~ The Socials!

Take a terrifying look at the history of Vlad Dracul III, known as the Impaler, and how it inspired Bram Stocker in his writing of Dracula.  Happy Halloween

On this special episode the boys are live at The Carlson's Rickles Room in Rochester, NY to discuss the prince of darkness himself, Vlad the Impaler DRACULA! 

Just in time for the Halloween season! This episode explores the real Dracula, Vlad the Impaler, a 15th century warrior-ruler infamous for his extreme brutality and cruelty. My guest Leif Pettersen, a former travel writer with Lonely Planet, has spent considerable time in Romania, and through his writing, research and wanderings, developed a special attachment to the real life Dracula.  His book on the subject is part memoir, part travelogue and part history, and called:  "Backpacking with Dracula: On the Trail of Vlad ‘“the Impaler” Dracula and the Vampire He Inspired".  Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode 2 - Show Notes In our second episode, we take a step back from history to discuss our faith, education, and plans for the podcast. You will learn the random ways we discovered our love of history: with Lilia her interest in history began with learning about Vlad the Impaler (Dracula); and with Jake it started with a trip to a colonial history museum in Deerfield, Massachusetts. Our faith and interest in history grew at the University of Dallas, where we met each other while studying abroad in Rome. We hope this podcast will help others learn about Catholic history along with us. Join us next time as we discuss St. Thomas More. References: * University of Dallas - the Rome program https://udallas.edu/rome/index.php St. Bede the Venerable - A patron saint of historians and a Doctor of the Church, who we reference in the podcast's name. He was a Benedictine priest who lived his life in prayer and study in the late 7th/early 8th century in Anglo-Saxon England. He is most famous for writing The Ecclesiastical History of the English People, which is a foundational work of church history. Eusebius of Caesarea - The important early church historian who set down the history of the church from Jesus to Constantine in his Ecclesiastical History. He also preserved fragments of many texts that are now lost. He lived in the 4th century and was a bishop of Caesarea. One reason his is not considered a saint is that he may have been, at least for a time, sympathetic to the Arian heresy. Raid on Deerfield - This was the famous attack on Deerfield, Massachusetts during Queen Anne's War that Jake learned a little about during a childhood visit, sparking an interest in Native American history. (Correction to the podcast: Deerfield was subject to this one famous raid, not multiple attacks) Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Fine example of 1990s vampire culture.
