Some of it is rooted in fact. Some is rooted in folklore. All of it is fascinating. Welcome to Voodoo City.

episode Resurrecting the Devil Man artwork
Resurrecting the Devil Man

When is an urban legend not really an urban legend? When it's 100 percent true. That's the case with the so-called Devil Man, a horned figure who, according to legend, terrorized New Orleans in the late 1930s. As it turns out, it's not legend at all. It all really happened, in a bizarre, only-in-New-Orleans occurrence that saw the "devil" land in a local jail. Many thanks to the following musicians for the use of their songs in this episode: Aakash Gandhi, "Forest of Fear" and "Dance of the U-boat" Sextile, "Magenta" HOVATOFF, "Creek" Text Me Records / Jordan Blackmon.

Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
