Historyas is a podcast for anyone who uses English to communicate or to learn, and wants to practice Spanish through storytelling, the way language has traveled through tales for thousands of years. Each episode is one story, a legend or an intriguing scene from history, with you at the center of it, whispered in your ear. Expect a supernatural, macabre edge: witches on trial in the Basque mountains, a werewolf standing trial in Galicia, ghosts, hauntings, and the things nobody could fully explain. Some stories turn genuinely scary, especially for young kids. Plenty of other listeners, of all ages, love exactly that part. Listen at your own discretion. Great listening for Halloween, Día de los Muertos, or Noche de Difuntos, though honestly, any night works. If your Spanish is not quite there yet, no problema. Each episode sets the scene in English, then turns to Spanish: the legend still told across the country, and the historical facts beneath it. Listen once, as if it were music. You will understand more than you think. Then listen again with the transcript, which comes with every episode, along with the translation and a key vocabulary list at historyas.com. Los hispanohablantes también lo pasarán de miedo. Prefer to watch? The live recordings of the trailers are on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Historyas.podcast/videos. Written, narrated and scored by Luis Poza García.© 2026 Luis Poza Garcia · Historyas. All rights reserved.
