Short Stuff: Beast of Gevaudan

In this episode, Josh and Chuck dive into the chilling true story of the Beast of Gévaudan, an 18th-century French terror that left a trail of gruesome deaths across the countryside. Over three years in the 1760s, around a hundred people were killed by what witnesses described as a massive, wolf-like creature, sparking international media coverage and turning the whole country into a monster-hunting frenzy with king-ordered troops and substantial bounties. The guys explore the wild theories about what the beast actually was—from prehistoric hyenas to serial killers to coordinated wolf packs—while revealing what modern experts now believe really happened in those dark woods.
