Episode 58 - The Crawfordsville Monster

Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling

Back in the fall of 1891, a truly anomalous creature struck fear in the hearts of the people of Crawfordsville, Indiana. Was this a close encounter with an atmospheric beast? A ethereal invertebrate? A….Sky Whale?? Or was this nothing more than another example of yellow journalism’s effect on a fairly normal occurance? We’re just going to make a lot of guesses.

DEFINITELY NOT KILLDEER!

Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling is created for adult audiences only. The content and discussion in this show will necessarily engage with various accounts that include violence, anxiety, fear, and occasional body horror. Much of it will be emotionally and intellectually challenging to engage with. We will flag especially graphic or intense content so as to never put you in an uninformed or unprepared position. We will do our best to make this a space where we can engage bravely, empathetically, and thoughtfully with difficult content every week.

This week’s episode includes the following sensitive content:
