Mr. Beast of Gévaudan - Hyenadons, Werewolves & the World's Most Dangerous Game | ACSH Ep. XXXII

In the three years between 1764 and 1767, the French countryside in Gévaudan was terrorized by a series of ghastly murders and violent attacks that many thought were the doing of a supernatural beast. Leaving it's victims beheaded and throat-torn, the longtime suspected perpetrator was a wolf-like creature, but was it that simple? Years of hunts commissioned by then King Louis XV led to dozens of dead wolves, but just as many dead ends. For a creature alleged to have been killed at least twice, we think there might just be more to the story. Did the beast exist at all, or was it just a cover for a serial killer, or maybe a team? Find out all that and more today.
