Imagine you're a peasant in a rural area of France circa mid-1700s, you've heard rumors of a terrible beast roaming the countryside. Some of your neighbors have gone missing. Even worse, some have been found. Pieces of them, at least. You know not to be out after dark, but tonight time got away from you.

It sounds close, so close you almost feel the warm air on your neck. You quicken your pace. 100 paces. 50 paces. A terrible growl bellows from the night. You reach for the door.
You go no further.
You never make it past the doorstep.
Another victim in the string of gruesome killings by the Beast of Gévaudan.
