Today, Meghan and Lyle sink their teeth into “Wonderful Sausage,” a particularly gruesome tale collected by Alvin Schwartz in Scary Stories 3: More Tales to Chill Your Bones (1991), with unforgettable illustrations by Stephen Gammell.

What makes Samuel Blunt’s sausages so wonderfully delicious? You might wish you hadn’t asked! Lyle also traces the story’s folkloric roots to the Ozarks and Louisiana as we explore where this deliciously disturbing tale came from.
