Ep. 87: Man or Monster?- The Case of Peter Stumpp & The Rougarou Legend

Happy second week of October, spooky people! Thank you again for continuing to help grow our community! It means the world to me, and I hope we get to see it continue to grow exponentially these last few months of the year! Get ready for some spine-chilling werewolf tales in today’s episode- First, we’re delving into the grisly case of Peter Stumpp, the infamous "Werewolf of Bedburg." Accused of dark magic, murder, and cannibalism in the 1500s. Stumpp’s story is one that’ll have you questioning what’s real and what’s legend, and if these tales we tell are rooted in ulterior motives of deception. Then, we’re heading deep into the swamps of Louisiana to unravel the legend of the Rougarou, a shape-shifting creature that’s said to stalk the bayou under the light of the moon. Whether fact or folklore, these stories are sure to send a shiver down your spine. Don't forget to drop me your picks for the most haunted place in Arizona, just in time for our minisode releasing at the end of the month! Oh, and the Haunted Tier List will be live this weekend, so keep your eyes peeled and cast your votes on the creepiest locations in Arizona. Cheers!
