What stops a werewolf? Silver bullets? Holy water? Turns out, a super starched collar, a couple of good boy doggos, and some good old fashion medieval torture/execution! This week, Hannah tells Katy the story of Peter Stumpp (aka: Able Griswold, aka: disAble Griswold, aka: the Werewolf of Bedburg), a probably psychopath who did a lot of really horrible stuff thanks to a magical belt that Satan gave him. Hear his gross descriptions of what human baby flesh tastes like, and try to keep up with all the people he killed as a werewolf.
This one is equal parts spooky and disturbing, so pour something strong!
