Ep. 37 The Flatwoods Monster: Terror in the Hills

from Kraken Cans Cast: Cryptids, Urban Legends, and All Things Spooky · host Kraken Cans Crew

Grab a cold one and settle in, because this week on Kraken Cans Cast, we’re heading deep into the West Virginia hills to uncover the eerie legend of the Flatwoods Monster. What began as a fiery streak across the sky on September 12th, 1952, turned into one of the strangest—and most debated—series of cryptid encounters ever reported.We walk through all three of the infamous sightings tied to the Flatwoods case, starting with the terrifying tale of the May brothers and their squad of small-town investigators (including the real MVP, their dog Ritchie). From there, we dive into two more creepy encounters that only deepen the mystery: new witnesses, new details, and more questions about what exactly landed on G. Bailey Fisher’s farm that night.Expect glowing eyes, chemical fog, a towering figure with a spade-shaped head, and the kind of small-town chaos that only happens when kids, UFOs, and monsters collide. We also hit you with our signature folklore score and—of course—a beer pairing that is a first for the cast. So turn off the lights, shine your flashlight into the woods, and crack a can with us as we ask: What the hell happened in Flatwoods?Give us a shoutSupport the show
