The Black Shuck, Hellhounds, and Crowley’s Loch Ness Monster
Ever wanted to know how to summon a hellhound? How about conjure a monster the likes of which may haunt the waters of Loch Ness? On this episode, we explore the history of rituals and demonic conjurings that may link sightings of the famed Sea Monster and strange activity around Loch Ness with the man once dubbed the wickedest man on earth — Allister Crowley.. But first, the Legend of the Black Shuck! Is he a shadowy guardian of travelers, an omen of impending doom, or is he himself the cause of dreadful and supernatural animal attacks?Also.. Area 51 swipes right, Why Jimmy Page is a bad friend, and Jon tries to stop Jeremy from summoning a hellhound.

MOVIE RECOMMENDATIONS
- Breakdown (1997) — Chris referenced ‘Black Dog’ during the episode, which is apparently a really bad Patrick Swayze movie. He was actually thinking of Breakdown with Kurt Russell 😉
