When you send your teenage daughter out to keep an eye on your cows/geese, be prepared for her to face wolves, receive marriage proposals, and maybe even encounter a friend of the Devil himself. This week, special guest, Morgan, fills in for Katy, and Hannah tells her about Jean Grenier: the teenage werewolf. There's wolves that look like Yorkies, a hell-house in the woods, magical animal hides that require a healthy slathering of Crisco, and one very unhinged witch-hunter. We love a good werewolf story, and this one does not disappoint.
So pour your drinks, slip into that wolf-skin that Satan gave you, and join us for this spooky lore!

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars?
