We sit down the very funny comedian Julia Desmond to discuss famed cat cryptid The Wampus Cat! In Cherokee legends, the Wampus Cat is the embodiment of a female onlooker cursed by tribal elders, as punishment for hiding beneath the pelt of a wild cat to witness a sacred ceremony. During the 1920–30s, newspapers reported of a "Wampus" cat killing livestock in North Carolina to Georgia. We also discuss The Beast of Bladenboro, a creature responsible for a string of animal deaths in the winter of 1953–54, in North Carolina. Could they be the same creature?
