Matt and EJ continue their investigation of the Beast of Bray Road and the history of werewolves and dogmen. As more roadside encounters with mysterious dogheaded humans pop up in the American midwest, evil connections come to light. Are these monsters creatures from hell, the offspring demons? And how does the Satanic Panic play into their creation?

The small town of Elkhorn, Wisconsin holds a wild secret. According to local legend, a werewolf stalks their back roads, terrorizing motorists and feeding on the carcasses of dead animals. This creature, described as a massive, bipedal humanoid with a dog’s head, has been linked to all kinds of weirdness, from Satanic cults to religious beliefs to native Sasquatch populations. Spawning an entire subset of research, these “dogmen” are the disgraced nephew of cryptozoology: a story that just won’t die, and one which many think weakens their entire stance on unknown animals.

Matt
he/him
I work in film and tv, both behind the camera and in the editing room. I’ve been a member of the International Brotherhood of Magicians for over 20 years. Since childhood, I’ve been obsessed with cryptids, the paranormal and conspiracy theories. I believe that everything deserves to be explored, and nothing exists in a vacuum. Every belief we hold, every experience we have and every story we tell is influenced by our background, our situation and the world around us.
Favorite horror movies:
Hereditary, Burnt Offerings, His House, Creature from the Black Lagoon, anything Godzilla, The Ritual, Lake Mungo, Underwater, Amityville Horror (1979), Alien, Trollhunter
Favorite horror books/stories:
The Shining, Pickman’s Model, The Yellow Wallpaper, Was it a Dream?, A Headful of Ghosts, the Night Watch series, Crouch End, Something is Killing the Children
If I was a cryptid I’d be:
Either a cadborosaurus, so I’d be able to swim around the ocean, or Mokele-Mbembe because dinosaurs are awesome
Non-paranormal pursuits:
Woodworking, flyfishing, giving treats to cats
EJ
they/them
As an introvert that thrives on deep, meaningful conversation, I guess I’m a walking paradox. I grew up in a creaky old farmhouse in Upstate New York where I played with frogs and made all the adults call me Macgyver. When I was a kid, I saw something that looked like a sasquatch run through the swamp behind my house. I’m fascinated by what we think we see and what beliefs we hang on to, even as more information comes to us. Let’s get into it.
Favorite horror movies/TV shows:
Parasite, Paranormal Activity, One Cut of the Dead, Hush, Creep, Midnight Mass, Train to Busan, Nope, Midsommar
Favorite horror books/stories:
The Terror, House of Leaves
If I was a cryptid, I’d be:
Bigfoot because you’re always warm, you’re an apex predator, and you live alone in the woods away from people. What more could you ask for??
Non-paranormal pursuits:
Martial arts, knitting/crochet, exploring nature, writing
Quixote and Zuri
