Скачать или смотреть The Yule Goat: Animal Sacrifice and the Darker Side of Winter

Step into the quiet, snow-lit world of the Yule Goat—a winter symbol that looks harmless, yet carries echoes of something older and heavier. In this cinematic folklore documentary, Hidden Lore follows the Yule Goat from the doorway of a northern home back into the deep past, where winter survival, sacred thresholds, and the idea of animal sacrifice shaped the stories people dared to keep.

Why does the Yule Goat so often appear near the threshold? What did it once protect, replace, or conceal? Moving through ancient winter customs, Scandinavian folk memory, and archetypal psychology, this film explores the darker side of winter—not as shock, but as a slow truth: cold seasons demanded order, ritual, and sometimes a price.

A story of Yule, winter solstice traditions, and the symbols that still linger after the lights go out—because some legends don’t vanish. They simply learn to whisper.
