8 NEW Most Disturbing TRUE Countryside Horror Stories _ Buried Files

from Buried Files · host Buried Files

You think the only threat in the countryside is a wild animal? Imagine a beast that terrorized an entire region of France for three years, leaving over 100 dead. Or a child with pitch-black eyes haunting a British forest since the 1980s. These are the buried files of the countryside, where the isolation is real, and the monsters are even more so.In this episode, we unearth eight of the most disturbing true horror stories from the heart of the countryside. We begin with the legendary Beast of Gévaudan, a creature that stalked the French countryside from 1764 to 1767, attacking over 200 people and killing more than 100. Eyewitnesses described a wolf-like beast with a stripe down its back, massive teeth, and, in some accounts, eyes that glowed red. In the British countryside, we explore the enduring legend of the "black-eyed child" of Cannock Chase, a ghostly figure that has terrified locals for decades with its unnatural movements and unnerving giggles. We also examine the ancient mystery of the Warwickshire Witchcraft Murder, an 80-year-old unsolved case where an elderly farmhand was found impaled by his own pitchfork, leading a Scotland Yard detective to believe it was the "ghastly climax of a pagan rite". We also cover the haunting of a Welsh farmhouse so intense it required more exorcisms than any other home in British history, and the chilling stories from Pluckley, Kent—the village known as Britain's most haunted, where ghosts of a tortured highwayman, a weeping red lady, and the screams of a dying brickworker are said to echo through the night.
