261-Jewish Folklore: Mirror, Mirror

261-Jewish Folklore: Mirror, Mirror

Two stories of King David's magic mirror. One actually involves a folklore version of the Biblical king facing off against an enemy from his past...and maybe turning into a balloon? The second involves a rabbi, a murderous sorcerer, and a magic battle dinner party.

The creature is what happens when you stay too long as a vampire. You turn into what's basically an angry George Costanza with seven goat tails.
