In this episode, Amanda Joy ventures deep into the misty forests and old villages of Quebec to uncover the chilling legends of the loup-garou—the werewolves of La Belle Province.
These tales aren’t just campfire stories. They’re part of a rich French-Canadian folklore that reveals the fears, beliefs, and moral lessons woven through generations. From medieval European roots to the uniquely Québécois twists that transformed them, we’ll explore why these shapeshifting creatures haunted imaginations for centuries.
Join us as we trace the evolution of the loup-garou legend, examine the social forces that kept it alive, and ask why these stories still hold power today.
Turn down the lights and come along as we go Down the Crooked Path.
