  • The Werewolf of Bedburg: Shape-Shifting, Satanism, and Cannibalism

    The Werewolf of Bedburg: Shape-Shifting, Satanism, and Cannibalism
    Sep 22 2023

    In the late 1500s, a huge man-eating wolf was attacking and devouring the people of Bedburg, Bavaria. It stalked the forests, fields, and even the darkened streets of the surrounding areas. No one was safe from its blood-thirst. Fear and rumours spread throughout the land, until finally that dreaded word was whispered from neighbour to neighbour. A word that would explain how the beast could so easily appear and disappear at will: 'Werewolf'.

    In this episode of Talking till Dawn, we investigate the events surrounding this alleged werewolf, pouring over old manuscripts and records to uncover the truth behind this terrifying case and the man who was accused of being a real werewolf: Peter Stump.

    Please do leave a review, it really helps the podcast build an audience. Many thanks.

    This episode contains discussion of topics, including torture, murder, infanticide, and cannabilism which some listeners may find distressing.

I actually came across this channel via their YouTube channel when I was looking up stories about black-eyed children. I fell in love with their style of story-telling and general banter, and enjoy that they give a grounded but open view to their more supernatural subjects.

I listen to them every day on my walks and during work. My only regret is how quickly I've caught up with the episodes. I get so excited when I see the new episode each month. Even got my boyfriend into listening. Love you guys and looking forward to every topic you discuss.
