In this episode of International Supernatural, Alana and Liam jump aboard the stupid train and explore Stupid Supernatural. Alana tells the story of Old Raw Head, a "terrifying" creature from North American Midwestern folklore. Liam takes you on a tour of his top 10 weird-ass medieval monsters. Asides include: the correct pronunciation of hoof/hooves, pigs in Vera Wang, sexy squids, terrible accents, and Alana’s (stupid/not stupid) cushion.
