Our Live Fall Tour Starts on September 10th! More Info Here! The Circus of Lost Children & The Drunken Battle of Karansebes Step right up for one of the strangest rides in history—this episode of The Box of Oddities brings you the hauntingly peculiar tale of the Circus of the Lost Children, a traveling show with mysteries darker than the big top shadows themselves. Were these wandering performers guardians of misfits, or something far more unsettling? Then, hold onto your bayonets (and maybe your Schnapps ®) as we march straight into the Battle of Karansebes—arguably the most disastrously hilarious military blunder ever recorded, where an army accidentally defeated itself before the enemy even arrived. From eerie carnival lore to slapstick battlefield chaos, this episode proves truth really is stranger than fiction. Tune in, laugh, shiver, and marvel at the oddities history tried to sweep under the rug.
