Episode 39: Wallowa Lake Monster

46 min2 maj 2025

Beneath the pristine waters of Oregon’s Wallowa Lake, something ancient stirs.

This week, we dive into the chilling legend of Wally, the Wallowa Lake Monster—an elusive, hump-backed serpent feared by many. From a tragic love story punished by a furious lake spirit, to 50-foot serpents and monstrous black heads breaking the surface, the sightings span centuries.

Plus: could a crustacean the size of a horse be hiding beneath the waves? And what do Arab folklore and crab-zilla hoaxes have to do with it?

Legends, love, and lake monsters—tune in now.
