In the shadowy depths of Louisiana's bayous, the Rougarou stalks—an eerie creature caught between man and beast. Its curse is born from disobedience, betrayal, and broken vows, twisting the unfortunate into a relentless predator under the moon’s cold gaze. But the curse is not permanent; by day, the afflicted return to human form—haunted, exhausted, and forever silenced. Speak of it, and the curse consumes you. But there are strange ways to evade its grasp—rituals, tricks, and the fateful counting of thirteen objects. A creature of terror, but not without its vulnerabilities. In this episode, we explore the eerie origins, twisted rules, and haunting survival tactics of the Rougarou—a legend still alive and lurking in the mist.
