Summary

In Dickson County, Tennessee, there have long been rumors surrounding a certain area of what is now part of Montgomery Bell State Park—a place where it's rumored werewolves once stalked 19th-century settlers.

0:00.0	Just a heads up. This episode might be a little too spooky for our very youngest strangers.
0:10.2	I'm Lauren Orton, and this is one strange thing, the show where we search the nation's news archives, for stories that can't quite be explained.

0:32.9	and we're keeping up the theme that we began with our main feed episode on the alleged Georgia werewolf, Emily Burt.
0:36.4	Because when we were deep into our research on her story,
