Freaky Folklore is your guide to the world’s most terrifying beings, from ancient times to today. Hosts from Eeriecast, the leading horror podcast network, present the most frightening—and entertaining—tales of these mysterious creatures, revealing everything you need to know.

This beautifully creepy collection is filled with wicked monsters, including:

• Chupacabra: A legendary monster that is said to drain the blood of livestock throughout Mexico, Puerto Rico, and the US Southwest.
• Jersey Devil: Said to have been created due to a mother's curse upon her newborn in the Pine Barrens of southern New Jersey, USA.
• Kelpie: A shape-shifting water horse told of in Celtic folklore. Whatever form it takes, it is said to lure its victims to their watery graves.
• Moehau: A cryptid from Māori mythology, it stands up to 8 feet tall and can be very aggressive when encountered.
• Kuchisake-onna: From Japanese folklore, Kuchisake-onna is a yokai with deep gashes that forms a haunting smile across her face. Should you happen to meet her, she will ask you a question—and you had better answer it correctly.
• Dogman: A werewolf or werewolf-type creature first reported in 1887 in Wexford County, Michigan, Dogman sightings have been reported in several locations throughout Michigan, primarily in the northwestern quadrant of the Lower Peninsula.

Freaky Folklore has the stories, and culture for you to be on the lookout for these beasts. Dive into the world of mythology and find what makes each creature unique.

I LOVE this Author so much!

Im so excited to have a book by DP on Audible and hope to see the rest of his awesome works on here narrated by himself naturally! His channel on YouTube sent me to his Podcasts and now his books and other items he has on his website. I love DP and the work he puts into all of his projects, his books, his podcasts, his family, all of it leads to a brilliant mind that is now running wild in the horror genre!

Instant Classic by DarknessPrevails

If you’re a fan of the podcasts “Unexplained Encounters,” “Alone in the Woods,” or any of Darkness Prevails’s other works, then you’re going to love this!

Excellent structure and easy to navigate via audiobook for different stories! There is a great variety of stories and the narration is masterful.

AI Slop. Look elsewhere.

Should have known better by the "author's" name. This is unlistenable cyber crap. Boo Audible.
