Terrifying & True | Jinn & Djinn: Islamic Tradition, Arab Folklore & Dark Encounter Stories
Podcast: Weekly Spooky | Scary Stories for HalloweenPublished On: Mon Jun 17 2024
Description: Jinn belong to a world of belief and storytelling far wider than the wish-granting genie. Terrifying & True explores Islamic tradition, Arab folklore and encounter accounts involving unseen beings, shape-shifting and possession. The episode considers how stories change across cultures and how spiritual explanations intersect with frightening personal experiences. Religious teachings, folktales and testimony are approached as distinct kinds of accounts, rather than proof of a supernatural attack. What lies behind the familiar image of the spirit in the lamp? We're telling that story tonight.Bonus episodes & support: https://weeklyspooky.com/joinMore scary stories: https://weeklyspooky.com/Story submissions: WeeklySpooky@gmail.com
