In this episode of the Say What Again Billy? Podcast, Spooky Season continues as the SWAB crew sinks its teeth into a topic they haven’t explored in nearly six years: vampires.


Tori and Billy dive into the history of vampires, tracing the legends back to their historical and folkloric origins and exploring how those stories eventually evolved into the vampires we know today through books, television, and movies.


Where did the belief in vampires come from? Why are they said to turn into bats? Where did the fear of sunlight, crosses, wooden stakes, and drinking blood originate? From ancient superstition to pop-culture icons, Billy and Tori break down the history, legends, and lore surrounding one of the most famous creatures of the night.


Spooky Season continues on the Say What Again Billy? Podcast with an episode dedicated entirely to the dark and fascinating history of vampires.
