    WVExplorer releases Fallout 76 monster podcasts

    Many monsters featured in the Fallout 76 video game are based on real-world West Virginia legends, about which David Sibray, publisher of West Virginia Explorer, has had much to say. A folklorist and historian, Sibray has been featured on many interviews since news of the game's release was announced in early 2018.

    What are the legends behind the monsters? How might the monsters behave in the game? Can players learn any of their behaviors from the lore featured at WVExplorer.com?

    Al Clark, of Moundsville, interviewed Sibray in a five-part series that regarded five monsters featured in an article by Ted Fauster, which some Fallout fans cited as being relevant to the game. The following were cast before the release of the game. Not all monsters were included. The original videos can also be viewed on Youtube and are embedded in the article "."
