S05E31 - From Loup Garou to Rougarou (pt 2) with Louisiana Dread's Kyle Crosby

This is part two of our conversation with Kyle Crosby, creator and host of Louisiana Dread (louisianadread.com). In Part 1, we covered the history of the Acadians and how they carried the loup-garou (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loup-garou) legend from France to the bayous of Louisiana. Now, in Part 2, Kyle walks us through the transformation of the loup-garou into the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rougarou - from strict werewolf to all-purpose shapeshifting boogeyman - and takes us on a tour of Louisiana's other legendary creatures, from the Axeman of New Orleans (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axeman_of_New_Orleans) to the feu follet to the Grunch.
