Episode 125: The Enfield Monster

I'm Horrified!

Is it a bear? is it a three legged kangaroo? Is it a short little Alien from outer space? Regardless, let's all get our guns and start shooting indiscriminately into the woods. This week Allie really phones it in and basically just reads you a newspaper article, but we swear it's so out of pocket you'll understand why. Who knows what Henry McDaniel saw that night, but one thing we know for sure is that after April 25th 1973, the small town of Enfield Illinois was catapulted into radio show sci fi hysteria. In an academic paper written about the incident, a researcher did admit "some people tactfully suggested Mr. McDaniel had a notoriously overactive imagination"... but thats exactly what an invading monster from outer space would WANT you to think! Dust off your tinfoil hats, Horror Honeys!
