Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling

Episode 75: The Gowrow

53 min • 29 november 2022

This week, we discuss another piece of grade A choice Americana. The Gowrow is a twenty foot long reptilian monstrosity with ten-inch claws, giant tusks, and a spine lined with bony spikes leading to a razor sharp tail! According to Arkansas legend, these beasts roam the forest of the Ozarks looking for cattle to eat, men to smash, and flat bars to maim. Is these tales simply leftover Lumberwood lore or yellow journalism in its purest form? Either way…


IT’S IMPORTANT TO HAVE A GAL PAL IN THE FOREST!
