About this episode

Legends 1: North Carolina Monsters

The world is a big, scary place, and that's mostly because of the people around us. But if the legends are true, there are darker reasons to be afraid, and they are lurking in the shadows outside our homes.

Narrated and produced by Aaron Mahnke, with writing by Harry Marks and research by GennaRose Nethercott.
