Pope Lick Monster - Trouble at the Trestle (Ep. 20) Jan 17, 2025

Show notes

In this week's episode, we'll be talking about the Pope Lick Monster, a half-man, half-goat creature with a nasty temperament. He lives somewhere under the Norfolk Southern Railroad trestle over the Pope Lick Creek in Louisville, KY. He is said to lure his victims onto the trestle where they meet their untimely death. Would you rather be hit by the train, jump from the trestle to your death, or be torn apart by a demonic goat? None sound appealing to me.

Beast of Bladenboro - BOB the Vampire (Ep. 15) Nov 08, 2024
