In the deep, mist-covered swamps of Louisiana and the shadowed bottomlands of Arkansas, something has been seen. Something big. Something wild. And for decades, the stories have haunted locals and fueled whispered warnings: Don’t go out there after dark.In this episode, we travel first to the murky waters of Honey Island Swamp. Since the early 1960s, there have been sightings of a hulking, hair-covered creature said to stand over seven feet tall. It’s known for its piercing yellow eyes, webbed footprints, and the foul stench it leaves behind. Some say it’s an undiscovered primate. Others say it’s something far older, something tied to the ancient legends of the land.

Then we head north, across the state line, to the town of Fouke, Arkansas. In 1971, a quiet rural community was shaken by a terrifying encounter that left a family fleeing their home and sparked one of America’s most enduring monster legends. The creature became known as the Fouke Monster—or the Boggy Creek Monster. Witnesses describe a towering figure with glowing red eyes and long arms that swing like a great ape.

The stories are chilling, the evidence mysterious, and the legend refuses to die.Finally, we follow a trail that may tie these two legends together. A story that crosses swamps, rivers, and state lines. A story of men who went looking for the truth—and may have found it. Or maybe something found them. Are these two creatures part of the same mystery? Separate beasts haunting different landscapes? Or is it all just folklore—old stories to keep people from wandering too far into the dark? You decide. But remember, some legends are more than just stories.
