I take a deep dive into the archives to find the creepiest lost treasures of the public domain. While the stories take center stage, I like to share some of the incredible information I come across while seeking out new topics, so I start each episode with some history, examples from true crime, science and other insights to get those little gray cells working. Then I give you my best dramatic read of horror, mystery, science fiction, paranormal, and just plain freaky fiction eeked from the greats of horror and fantasy and their lesser known contemporaries. These authors created mind-breaking, chill-inducing, legacies of literary genius. It is my mission to resurrect their masterpieces, and bring them back into our nights.
So, gather round, snuggle up tight, maybe turn on a light, and prepare for a fright!

Episode 25: The Book of the Were-Wolves Part 6, Another Look at Gilles De Retz, Marechal of France and History's Most Loathed Serial Killer
We are closing in on the end of our journey with Sabine Baring Gould and his superlative book on Were-Wolf mythology, The Book of Were-Wolves. In this episode Sabine Baring Gould tackles the history and mystery surrounding the Brutal String of Child abductions and murders committed by one of the most illustrious Hero's of French History, and one of the most heinous serial murderers in Human History, the Marechal of France, Gilles De Retz. I covered this topic myself in Episode 12, but it bears hearing again and seeing the story from a different perspective. Come along for a ride through the French Countryside, and see what darkness lurks in the Hearts of Men.
