The Worker's Cauldron

An American Werewolf for Christmas

David Roddy, Monique Calhoun & Mercedas Castillo Season 4 Episode 10

In the final episode of our 2022 season, we discuss the rise of a bizarre cryptid popularly called The Dogman. We explore the works of the late great Linda Godfrey, who passed away on November 27 of this year, and her role in popularizing Wisconsin’s Beast of Bray Road and the Michigan Dogman. Over the last decade, the monster has grown from humble rural origins into a cryptid of international fame.
