Extra History
Hey there Extra Historians!
You may have noticed there’s a little something new under our videos these days. After years of wrestling with the back end of YouTube, we’ve finally been able to add a Store Rail to the channel!
Why it’s awesome:
✨ Now it’s easier to spot new matching merch right below our videos.
Why it’s REALLY awesome:
🐾 Every Zoey plush purchased helps support the ASPCA, with a portion of sales going directly to the cause. And on top of that, every item you pick up helps support the show and keeps Extra History going strong!
Also, if you haven’t checked out our newest series on Caterina Sforza, the Tigress of Forlì, it went live a bit ago. It’s a story packed with deadly papal intrigue (x2), brutal sieges, murdered husbands, and constantly shifting alliances in Renaissance Italy. To catch up, find it here: https://youtu.be/-RzworSzIw4
Also, some EXTRA good news! Our friends over @TheTaleFoundry are launching a brand-new project that dives deep into the lore of TaleBot, and they could use your help. You can learn more about the foundry here: https://youtu.be/zpb1HCurqnY
As always, thank you for watching and supporting Extra History!

📚 Extra History Fans, please enjoy our latest Episode 24 hours early!
In this episode, we step into something stranger. A devil-faced figure leaping across rooftops with clawed hands and fire-breathing attacks. He was a shadowy prowler who may have helped inspire later masked vigilantes, Spring-heeled Jack, the so-called Terror of London!
Was he a real attacker, a mass hallucination, a media fabrication, or the perfect storm of rumor and print sensationalism? Find out today!
Did we get something wrong in our "Victorian Horrors" series? Is there a particular character you want to hear more about? Feel free to ask our Extra History writer, Rob, HERE: forms.gle/mZJXLizs3VXczxyM7 and get a shout-out in our Extra Context Episode!
