Friday Late: Skräck och skrock i antiken

On Friday the 13th, you are invited to celebrate the darkest time of the year, filled with horror and superstition dating back to antiquity.

Meet Strix, an owl-like creature said to eat human flesh and drink blood, and Circe, a powerful sorceress and goddess in Homer’s Odyssey who turns Odysseus’ men into pigs, to name just a few of the creatures you might encounter during the evening.
