Dancing to Death in 1518 | History Hyenas
About this episode
THEY JUST WOULDN’T STOP DANCING. 💃🕺
This week on the History Hyenas Podcast, the boys dive into one of the strangest events in human history: the mysterious Dancing Plague of 1518 in Strasbourg. Hundreds of people danced uncontrollably in the streets for days… some until they collapsed, and others until they DIED. Was it mass hysteria? Poisoned bread? Religious panic? Possession? Or just medieval Europe being fully WILD?
It’s history, hysteria, and absolute chaos — the way the Hyenas like it.
