S2 Ep49: Swamp Monster
from Michigan Monsters Hosted by Jenn Carpenter
Two suspicious deaths at the Dudgeon Swamp in White Cloud, Michigan resulted in some of the most sensational national headlines of the 1920s. Amid rumors of incest, murder, and buried secrets, the Dudgeon family was persecuted by the town, as well as by the backwoods legal system of Stump Country. But were they really a family of killers? Or simply the victims of small-town gossip gone horribly wrong?
