In this episode of LilWeird Podcast, we explore the concept of liminality, that strange in-between state where you're no longer where you were, but not yet where you want to be. From eerie empty spaces and ghostly balete trees to the unsettling phenomenon of sleep paralysis, we dive into the mysteries that lie on the edges of reality. Join me as we journey through liminal spaces, time, and life transitions, and uncover the profound, and often creepy, transformations that happen in these threshold moments.

Show Notes:
