We’re back to unravel more of the bizarre and baffling world of Mass Psychogenic Illness. Buckle up as we dive into three wild case studies that will make you question what’s real and what’s all in your head!

First, we explore the Tanganyika laughter epidemic, where an entire village couldn’t stop laughing for months—no joke! Then, we head to Delhi to investigate the mysterious Monkey Man, a creature that terrorized the city and sparked a wave of hysteria. Finally, we dig into the eerie tale of the Mad Gasser of Mattoon, who had a whole town convinced they were under attack by an invisible gas-wielding villain.

Are these stories just examples of mass hysteria, or is there something more sinister at play? Tune in to hear us break down the facts, the myths, and everything in between!
