About this episode
Welcome to Monsterland.
The Medieval world is a realm of dragons, demons and beasts. Matt Lewis and Nick Jubber step into this murky world to tell the magical tales of the Bavarian Dragon's fire-breathing spectacle, the dark allure of Japan's mischievous Oni, and the hauntingly beautiful legend of Orkney's Selkies.
An adventure into the rich tapestry of medieval folklore and what these monsters reveal about human nature and the fears of the past.
