Deep in the valleys of the Ozarks, lore tells of a terrifying horned beast with glowing eyes and the power to either bring luck to those who see it or predict their death. This monster is known as the Ozark Howler, and on today's episode of The Monster Folklorist with Jack Daly, we'll dive into the legends surrounding this creature.
