Sister Legends

Sister Legends explores the hidden connections between folk horror legends and their counterparts from world mythology. Every culture has its monsters — and more often than not, they share a soul.

Each episode pairs a legend from one part of the world with its sister story from another, tracing the fears and storytelling traditions that connect them across oceans and centuries. From the pine forests of New Jersey to the marshlands of Melanesia, the outback of Australia to the valleys of Michigan — the same dread echoes everywhere. No single culture invented fear. Every shore has its own name for the dark.

Folk horror. World mythology. Cryptids. Dark history. Unexplained legends. If you've ever gone down a rabbit hole on regional folklore or the monsters that different civilizations independently invented to explain the same darkness — this channel was made for you.

New episodes regularly. Same fears. Different shores.
