Tonight Eric takes a trip into the bayou as he tells us about The Haunting of Manchac Swamp! This Louisiana swamp is not only haunted by the vengeful spirit of a long dead voodoo priestess, it's also said to be the hunting grounds of the rougarou or cajan werewolf!
Julia Brown was a local faith healer known for
her healing abilities and her powers of prophesy. But her seemingly
unearthly knowledge caused her neighbors to fear her. Soon, they
had convinced themselves that she was a voodoo priestess in league
with dark forces. Soon enough, Julia began to predict that on the
day she died, the whole town would suffer...and she was right!
The rougarou is a werewolf-like creature said to
be native to this area of the world. It especially enjoys the case
of naught children and lapsed Catholics. It is very similar to a
werewolf, though there are some key differences in how the cures is
placed and how it can be removed.
All this PLUS an important update about Eric's hometown haunt,
John Stones Inn (aka Stone's Public
House).
