25: Trolls Of The Ancient World w/ Cryptids Of The Corn

A troll is a being in Nordic folklore, including Norse mythology. In Old Norse sources, beings described as trolls dwell in isolated areas of rocks, mountains, or caves, live together in small family units, and are rarely helpful to human beings. In later Scandinavian folklore, trolls became beings in their own right, where they live far from human habitation, are not Christianized, and are considered dangerous to human beings. 

Joel is joined by Mr. E and Jay Clone 27 to peel back the layers of troll lore to see if these monstrous beings existed in the past and present. Mr. E breaks down the different kinds of trolls, which, by all accounts, had extensive infrastructures within their tribes. They then break down ancient stories of King Harald Fairhair and Olaf The Second - The Slayer of Trolls, along with modern-day accounts, to piece together the mystery of these strange cryptids.
