Across Appalachia, thousands of people report seeing the same thing: a massive black cat in the woods that screams like a woman being murdered. The government insists it doesn’t exist — there are no official reports of big black cats in the region.
But the Cherokee had a name for what lives in those mountains, and its story is far older, and far more wicked, than a misidentified panther.
In this episode, Kaelyn explores the legends of the Wampus Cat and Spearfinger — two terrifying figures rooted in Appalachian folklore, each with its own chilling history and supernatural lore.
From eerie sightings to ancient stories passed down through generations, these creatures continue to haunt the imaginations of those who live near the mountains, leaving many to wonder what still lurks in the dark forests of Appalachia.
