Mini-Series: The Beasts of France
France is a country of cathedrals, castles… and cryptids.
In this chilling six-part series from The Devil Within, we journey into the haunted forests, fog-laced vineyards, war-ravaged trenches, and bone-lined tunnels of France to uncover a dark and forgotten legacy: the loup-garou.
Part folklore, part true crime, The Beasts of France explores six terrifying cases—some legendary, others all too real—where the line between man and monster vanished. From the infamous Beast of Gévaudan that terrorized the countryside in the 1700s… to the Black Beast that stalked soldiers during WWI… to a secret cult beneath Paris in the 1970s that believed the werewolf wasn’t a myth—but a destiny.
1 The Beast of Gévaudan – A brutal string of killings in 18th-century France blamed on a creature that couldn’t be caught… or killed.
2 The Werewolves of the Jura – A cannibalistic hermit confesses to transforming into a wolf—and sets off a legal and spiritual panic.
3 The Beast of the Vosges – In 1994, livestock mutilations and phantom sightings resurrect France’s most ancient fears.
4 The Werewolf of Bordeaux – A calm, lucid man is arrested for murder—and insists he was simply answering the call of the wolf.
5 The Black Beast of Normandy – World War I soldiers report a hulking predator in the fog of battle… and it may not have left.
6 The Devil’s Breath – A Parisian cult, a forgotten detective, and a series of disappearances that point to something living beneath the City of Light.
