The Kelpie isn't the only deadly water horse from Folklore. The #Each-Uisge is deadly, some might say even more deadly than the Kelpie

Yesterday I went to see The Cryptid Factor record their very last podcast episode.

I was quite emotional about it. I've been a dedicated listener for many years and it was so nice to see so many people come out for it.

To anyone I met there, you're all so creative and lovely.

Subtitles aren’t just for deaf or hard of hearing players. They’re important for players in loud environments (who can’t use headphones), non-native speakers who rely on text to follow dialogue, and many neurodivergent folks who struggle to focus or process audio quickly. Just to mention few.
