S1 E06 - The Pope Lick Monster

Come along with us as we explore a Kentucky Cryptid, the Pope Lick Monster, a murderous Goatman who stalks the Pope Lick Train Trestle in an effort to lure its victims onto the train tracks and to certain death. This cryptid, or rather the legend of the cryptid itself, is perhaps one of the deadliest known, with at least 10 deaths being attributed to it.
