The Lore Lodge
Many history, folklore, and mythology channels dazzle you with well written scripts, beautiful imagery, and flashy British accents. Here, we do things a little differently. Stop in, grab a hot drink, and listen to your host, Aidan Mattis, tell you stories from both history and legend in an approachable, casual format. It's like you sat down at the bar and asked about Wendigos. Welcome to the Lore Lodge...
Background:
Host Aidan Mattis is a Penn State educated historian and folklorist, having earned his B.A. in Medieval Studies in 2020. Mattis is a writer and researcher with a particular interest in the Celtic world.
Technical Producer Aidan Thornbury has a background in Film, having earned his B.F.A. in Film and Journalism at New York University. Aidan has written, directed, edited, and at times acted in dozens of short films and media content over the past decade.

Since we're coming up on Halloween once again, allow me to remind you all of this little known banger of a video we put out two years ago on the complicated history of one of America's favorite holidays...

Okay, last poll had Bell Witch winning by a mile, but as I’m watching this episode of Ghost Adventures I’m definitely going to need to take some more time with the story because they’re bringing up things I’ve never heard of.
New question: do we take a look at Zak Bagans claims of a Skinwalker Invasion in Utah, or would you guys prefer a video on the Texarkana Moonlight Murders which inspired the movie The Town That Dreaded Sundown?

Hey guys! We ran a poll a couple of months ago which showed that a lot of you weren’t seeing our videos in your feed, and we may have an answer from YouTube as to why that is. After speaking with support, they seem very focused on the notification bell - probably more than they should be, since that feature doesn’t really work as expected.
That said, it would appear that they do use it as a metric to determine which of your subscribed channels you’re most interested in watching. So, if you’re not seeing us as often as you used to/want to, try turning notifications on (despite how useless the feature actually is in practice).
Edit: to be clear, I mean the channel specific notification bell, rather than the YouTube app itself on your device.

I'm honestly so excited for you guys to see this one. It was a ton of fun to research and write for, and I think it'll be a great jumping off point to talk about more hauntings - real or contrived.

For any game designers in the audience, we may be opening up applications for something cool very soon. Vague details are that it’s an extraction horror game set in the Appalachians.

Hey guys, good news! Not only did we manage to make good on our promise to begin putting AD FREE versions of our videos up on Patreon, but we managed to do it even earlier than expected.
And since we want you all to have a chance to see the product before paying for it, we've made this first one accessible to everyone, even without a paid membership to the platform! If you like it, we hope you'll consider subscribing at the $1 tier or above so that we can continue to improve our studio, hire some more help, and bring you better, more interesting stories than ever.
Check the first ZERO AD episode out for free at www.patreon.com/posts/is-something-off-139807406?u…
