This week I delve into the legend of the Beast of Gevaudan, the terror of 18th century France. The Beast would kill over 100 and attack many more over the span of 3 years, but what exactly was the Beast? Come along with me this week as we explore the story from the perspective of a 19th century author, James Grant, as he writes a fictional account that reads like nonfiction. It's a terrifying tale told and retold over the years, growing in it's retelling as only a true Legend can. Is it a wolf, is it a werewolf, is it some hybrid creature, is it a trained lion sent to murder on behalf of some psychotic serial killer of a master? Follow along with me to see what the sensationalists and the sceptics have to say.
